What drives the score
How to read this
Every input gets a grade, S to D, read from the buyer's side. The score is multiplicative, so an input only counts as raising when it sits near the top of its own scale. Anything with real room left is holding the score back, because that room is the gap to 100. ▲ marks a lift, ▼ a drag or a dock, ? an input we do not have, • a fact this genre's score does not use. The exact weights stay secret.
The value story
It has never been cheaper than $35.99. That was April 2026. It has been discounted 5 times in the 17 months tracked here, typically at 30 percent off, with about 15 weeks between sales. Today it is at full price. The last sale was about 7 weeks ago, and on this game's rhythm the next one tends to arrive within 15 weeks.
Value puts it in the top 4 percent of the games it competes with. It is pricier than 99 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 93 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Sultan's Game ($24.99, scores 88) beats it on value, while it beats Star Control®: Origins ($19.99, scores 41).
Steam's global achievement data puts 96 percent of players at this game's ending achievement. The median game this site can measure sits at 8. This site sampled 800 of its Steam-purchase reviews; 1 was written by a buyer who refunded it, sampled from reviews written May 2025 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 89 percent of the 171 reviews written there were positive, against 88 percent overall, and those are 3 percent of everything written about it.
Finishing takes 34.7 hours; clearing it takes 164, which is 4.7 times the campaign.

The Hundred Line -Last Defense Academy- scores 67/100 on the BANG Score (fair value). The BANG Score rates what a game is worth for the money. Via Steam BANGERS. https://steambangers.com/game/3014080/the-hundred-line-last-defense-academyThe BANG Score is one number for value, 0 to 100: price against how it reviews and how long it was built to be. It answers the money question and stops there; whether the game is for you is still your call.
Reviews set the ceiling and price moves you inside it, so a cheap game that reviews badly cannot climb. Ratings from few reviewers are shrunk toward the middle, so 100 percent from nine people does not outrank 96 percent from ninety thousand. Length comes from HowLongToBeat where it can be matched, measured against a per-genre floor so a five-hour narrative game is judged against other narrative games rather than against a sixty-hour RPG. Where no verified length exists the score says so and carries a dock, because the biggest input is then a guess. The full method, including where it is weak → Steam reviews as of Aug 3, price as of Sep 22.
