The value story

It has never been cheaper than $2.99. That was November 2024. Its cuts run 75 percent off as a rule. There have been 18 in the 2 years tracked, about 6 weeks apart. Today's $3.74 at 75 percent off still sits 25 percent above the floor, so a deeper cut exists in its history.

Take the discount away and it is a 73. With it, 88.

Value puts it in the top 1 percent of the games it competes with. It is pricier than 72 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 96 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Hyper Light Drifter ($4.99, scores 89) beats it on value, while it beats Asgard's Fall — Viking Survivors ($9.99, scores 49).

On this data it would still be a BANGER at $7.31. It costs $3.74.

Steam's global achievement data puts 29 percent of players at this game's ending achievement. The median game this site can measure sits at 15.

Valve rates it Steam Deck Verified, and at 5.6 hours it is short enough to finish on one.
