The lowest price on record is $0.99, set in June 2025. It has been discounted 103 times in the 12 years tracked here, typically at 80 percent off, with about 5 weeks between sales.
On value it sits in the top 1 percent of its genre. It outscores the games it most resembles, including Frostpunk ($2.99, scores 87) and Frostpunk 2 ($22.49, scores 45).
Steam's global achievement data says about under 1 percent of players ever finish it. On an 11.3-hour game, that is a lot of paid-for hours most people never see. It sells extras on top of the sticker price (cosmetic); the score docks it lightly for that.
