What drives the score

How to read this

Grades run S to D, read from the buyer's side. ▲ marks a lift, ▼ a drag or a dock, ? an input we do not have, • a fact this genre's score does not use. How the grades work

What we assumed
  • Steam lists in-app purchases but we have no detail on them. Small caution applied.
Raising the score
ValueFree
Price per hour of game. It moves the score inside the ceiling reviews set
Holding it back
Reviews46% positive
Gates the score. Weak reviews cap it, and nothing reaches BANGER without strong ones
Reach150K+ owners
How many own it, by SteamSpy's estimate (an old snapshot). A free game has no price to weigh, so this is its value read
MonetizationIn-app purchases
Steam lists in-app purchases and nothing more is known, so a small haircut
For context
Length46 hours
Typical playtime on HowLongToBeat. Endless games score on players, so hours stay out of it
RefundsFree
A free game cannot be refunded, so the label never applies
AI contentNone disclosed
From the developer's own Steam disclosure. No disclosure is not proof of none, so it does not move the score

The value story

It is less well reviewed than 98 percent of its genre. Deadside ($24.99, scores 42) outscores it, and so does XERA: Survival (free, scores 17). Both sit among its closest neighbours.

Inside the two-hour refund window, 33 percent of the 360 reviews written there were positive, against 46 percent overall, and those are 28 percent of everything written about it.

69 players were online in it when we last checked, on Sep 26, 23:46 UTC.
