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

Holding it back
Reviews78% positive
Gates the score. Weak reviews cap it, and nothing reaches BANGER without strong ones Scored as 77% after the small-sample adjustment
Refunds23 of 463 reviews
Well above the typical game's share of reviews from refunded buyers, so the score takes a small dock
Length unknownNo verified $/hr
No length in our data yet, so the biggest driver can't be verified. A heavy dock until it is

The value story

November 2015 is where it bottomed out, at $4.99. 49 discounts in the 12 years on record. They run about 70 percent off, roughly 10 weeks apart.

Against its own genre it lands in the top 48 percent on value. It is pricier than 94 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 72 percent. On the same math Disney Infinity 3.0: Gold Edition ($29.99, scores 65) and Mafia ($14.99, scores 73) are the better buys, and they are the games it most resembles.

Of the 463 Steam-purchase reviews this site sampled, 23 come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written March 2020 to August 2026. That is more refunded reviewers than 9 in 10 paid games this site has sampled to the same depth, and among the 2,814 games in its genre sampled this deeply, 155 have a larger share. The typical game sits near 5 in 1,000, so the score docks it. 1 of the 23 refunded reviewers was past Valve's two-hour window when they wrote the review. Inside the two-hour refund window, 69 percent of the 355 reviews written there were positive, against 78 percent overall, and those are 37 percent of everything written about it.
