The value story

March 2026 is where it bottomed out, at $12.59. 13 discounts in the 2 years on record. They run about 25 percent off, roughly 6 weeks apart. Today's $12.59 at 30 percent off matches the lowest price in the record.

This sale is doing real work. 90 at list, 92 today.

Value puts it in the top 1 percent of the games it competes with. It is pricier than 81 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 98 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Terraria ($9.99, scores 97) beats it on value, while it beats Buddy Simulator 1984 ($9.99, scores 79).

$23.30 is where it would stop being a BANGER. It is priced at $12.59.

Steam's global achievement data puts 34 percent of players at this game's ending achievement. The median game this site can measure sits at 15. Of the 672 Steam-purchase reviews this site sampled, 39 come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written February 2025 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 70 percent of the 633 reviews written there were positive, against 94 percent overall, and those are 10 percent of everything written about it.

Finishing takes 3.5 hours; clearing it takes 24, which is 6.7 times the campaign.

At 3.5 hours it is a handheld-sized game, and Valve rates it Deck Verified.

What players say

Wonderful game. I absolutely love it, recommend it to everyone and I am sending much love and appreciation to the devs. It's just beautiful.

I keep struggling to write a review for Keep Driving, since the game means an awful lot to me. There's truly no game like it: no single game that can similarly capture that beautiful, strange, dust-beaten experience of 'wasting' your fleeting youth on the road like this. It's got this wonderful old-school indie game sensibility (read: early 2010s) that can't really be replicated anymore (in what must be some irony)...

Genuinely such an underrated gem. Found out about this game looking for more driving games to play and I was hooked, and it definitely didn't help that I love road trips. Such a unique way to tackle road trips, definitely recommend playing it.
