What drives the score

How to read this

Grades run S to D, read from the buyer's side. ▲ marks a lift, ▼ a drag or a dock, ? an input we do not have, • a fact this genre's score does not use. How the grades work

What we assumed
  • How long it takes to beat isn't in our data. We scored it as a typical Action game (about 6 hours) and docked the score for the missing length.

The value story

June 2026 is where it bottomed out, at $11.99. Its cuts run 30 percent off as a rule. There have been 10 in the 2 years tracked, about 8 weeks apart. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended 9 days ago.

Against its own genre it lands in the top 13 percent on value. It is pricier than 82 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 94 percent. Among the games that feel like it, HAAK ($17.99, scores 67) beats it on value, while it beats DEVIATOR ($4.19, scores 19).

77 from critics against 89 percent from players, and the player number comes from people who own the game.

This site sampled 454 of its Steam-purchase reviews; 2 were written by buyers who refunded it, sampled from reviews written January 2025 to September 2026.

It carries Valve's Deck Verified rating, which is the one that means it just works.

The drop-off

No achievement in this game marks the ending, so there is no finish rate. The curve runs from the most-unlocked achievement to the rarest, and its shape is where players stop. Steam global achievements
