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
The lowest price on record is $3.49, set in June 2025. It has been discounted 9 times in the 2 years tracked here, typically at 40 percent off, with about 13 weeks between sales. Today it is at full price. The last sale was about 13 weeks ago, and on this game's rhythm the next one tends to arrive within 13 weeks.
Value puts it in the top 3 percent of the games it competes with. It is better reviewed than 96 percent of its genre. Among the games that feel like it, Garry's Mod ($9.99, scores 97) beats it on value, while it beats Nine-Ball Roulette ($3.99, scores 65).
Players rate it 90 percent positive over its lifetime, but the last 30 days run 74 percent. Something recent has soured the room. Of the 800 Steam-purchase reviews this site sampled, 32 come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written January 2026 to August 2026. That is more refunded reviewers than 8 in 10 paid games this site has sampled to the same depth, and among the 490 games in its genre sampled this deeply, 140 have a larger share. Inside the two-hour refund window, 83 percent of the 10,725 reviews written there were positive, against 90 percent overall, and those are 22 percent of everything written about it.

What players say
It's not a lot of fun if you're playing in silent lobbies, but if you get a good one where people are actually talking and friendly (or at least not just yelling slurs) then it becomes a brilliant and hilarious game of bantering, bluffing and sneakily manipulating the people next to you, which is extremely rewarding. This review is not a lie. OR IS IT?
Almost two years old, massive amounts of success, regular updates, and they still haven't removed the the AI voices.
Player reviews from Steam: the most helpful all-time, plus the newest that clear the same quality bar, with the hours each player had put in when they wrote it. The mix of Recommended and Not recommended follows the game's Steam ratio. Rotates daily. Opinions are theirs.

Liar's Bar scores 73/100 on the BANG Score (worth it). The BANG Score rates what a game is worth for the money. Via Steam BANGERS. https://steambangers.com/game/3097560/liar-s-barThe 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 2, price as of Sep 23.
