The value story
It has gone on sale 2 times in the 3 years tracked here, most recently in June 2024. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended about 119 weeks ago.
It is pricier than 82 percent of its genre, and less well reviewed than 85 percent. On the same math Warfork (free, scores 70) and GOAT OF DUTY ($2.99, scores 58) are the better buys, and they are the games it most resembles.
More about TRIBES 3: Rivals
Of the 800 Steam-purchase reviews this site sampled, 31 come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written March 2024 to September 2026. That is more refunded reviewers than 9 in 10 paid games this site has sampled to the same depth, and among the 795 games in its genre sampled this deeply, 119 have a larger share. The typical game sits near 5 in 1,000, so the score docks it. 3 of the 31 refunded reviewers were past Valve's two-hour window when they wrote the review. In its first 30 days on sale, 16 of 244 sampled reviews came from refunders. Inside the two-hour refund window, 57 percent of the 408 reviews written there were positive, against 62 percent overall, and those are 31 percent of everything written about it.
