The value story

It has never been cheaper than $6.31. That was October 2024. It has been discounted 20 times in the 2 years tracked here, typically at 21 percent off, with about 5 weeks between sales. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended about 4 weeks ago. $5.82 is what it would take to make this a BANGER, and nothing in its history goes that low.

Against its own genre it lands in the top 2 percent on value. It is better reviewed than 98 percent of its genre. Among the games that feel like it, Satellite Odyssey: Prologue ($1.99, scores 83) beats it on value, while it beats Crimson Snow (2023) ($6.99, scores 75).

Of the 361 Steam-purchase reviews this site sampled, 7 come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written November 2024 to August 2026. That is more refunded reviewers than 8 in 10 paid games this site has sampled to the same depth, and among the 1,656 games in its genre sampled this deeply, 86 have a larger share. Inside the two-hour refund window, 81 percent of the 118 reviews written there were positive, against 96 percent overall, and those are 8 percent of everything written about it.

What players say

Good game. Good story. Definitely had some good jump scares in there. Dialog options were good. Ran smooth, no obvious glitches. Wish it was a little longer but the price reflects that, Worth it.
TruthDevoidRecommendedafter 3.4h1 found this helpfulRead on Steam
This game was a fun and memorable experience. There's some inconsistency in the quality of the visuals, some things look very good and other things look low quality. It would be really cool if the game got a visual upgrade, because the story and gameplay is worth playing. If you're interested in a unique horror experience with a good story, and don't mind the somewhat lackluster visuals, give this game a try.
