62 discounts in the 11 years on record, a median of 50 percent off across all of them, roughly 7 weeks apart. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended about 4 weeks ago.

It is pricier than 91 percent of its genre. On the same math Overdungeon ($14.99, scores 51) and Knock on the Coffin Lid ($24.99, scores 58) are the better buys, and they are the games it most resembles.
