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.
- How long it takes to beat isn't in our data. We scored it as a typical RPG game (about 8 hours) and docked the score for the missing length.
The value story
It has never been cheaper than $0.99. That was December 2025. It has been discounted 84 times in the 12 years tracked here, typically at 80 percent off, with about 5 weeks between sales. Today's $0.99 at 90 percent off matches the lowest price in the record.
On value it sits in the top 20 percent of its genre. It is pricier than 60 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 72 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Heavy Rain ($1.99, scores 74) beats it on value, while it beats Until Dawn™ ($59.99, scores 39).
Steam's global achievement data puts about 19 percent of players at this game's ending achievement. 7 of the 800 Steam-purchase reviews sampled here come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written March 2025 to September 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 57 percent of the 796 reviews written there were positive, against 79 percent overall, and those are 12 percent of everything written about it.

Fahrenheit: Indigo Prophecy Remastered scores 48/100 on the BANG Score (a skip). Length is estimated at 8 hours, not measured, so the score is docked. The BANG Score rates what a game is worth for the money. Via Steam BANGERS. https://steambangers.com/game/312840/fahrenheit-indigo-prophecy-remasteredThe 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 Sep 21, price as of Sep 24.
