The value story

The value story

It has been discounted 62 times in the 13 years tracked here. The median cut across all of them is 50 percent, about 9 weeks apart. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended about 4 weeks ago.

It is cheaper than 78 percent of its genre, and less well reviewed than 66 percent. Desktop Dungeons ($14.99, scores 59) outscores it, and so does Tangledeep ($14.99, scores 53). Both sit among its closest neighbours.

What drives the score

Grades: S best, D weakest

S is the best grade and D the weakest, judged as a buyer. ▲ raises the score, ▼ lowers it, ? is an input we do not have, • is a fact this genre's score does not use. How the grades work

Raising the score
MonetizationNone
Checked: no in-game purchases or loot boxes. That earns a small credit unless Steam lists in-app purchases
Holding it back
Reviews
Gates the score. Weak reviews cap it, and nothing reaches BANGER without strong ones. Scored as 75% after the small-sample adjustment
Reach350K+ owners
How many own it and play it, by SteamSpy's estimates (an old snapshot), the biggest driver for a game with no ending
For context

Steam-purchase reviews sampled whose writer refunded the game. Nothing is docked
AI contentNone disclosed
From the developer's own Steam disclosure. No disclosure is not proof of none, so it does not move the score
