The value story

It has never been cheaper than $2.99. That was June 2026. In 3 months of price history it has never once been discounted.

On value it sits in the top 16 percent of its genre. It is cheaper than 63 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 69 percent. Among the games that feel like it, There Is No Game: Wrong Dimension ($12.99, scores 77) beats it on value, while it beats Trolley Problem, Inc. ($10.99, scores 15).

This site sampled 580 of its Steam-purchase reviews; 14 were written by buyers who refunded it, sampled from reviews written February 2024 to August 2026. That is more refunded reviewers than 7 in 10 paid games this site has sampled to the same depth, and among the 727 games in its genre sampled this deeply, 128 have a larger share. Inside the two-hour refund window, 73 percent of the 853 reviews written there were positive, against 77 percent overall, and those are 70 percent of everything written about it.

At 1.6 hours it is a handheld-sized game, and Valve rates it Deck Verified.
