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 $3.74. That was June 2017. It has been discounted 45 times in the 11 years tracked here, typically at 75 percent off, with about 12 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 12 weeks.
Value puts it in the top 49 percent of the games it competes with. It is pricier than 71 percent of its genre. Among the games that feel like it, Dungeon of the ENDLESS™ ($2.99, scores 66) beats it on value, while it beats Overture ($4.99, scores 40).
Of the 245 Steam-purchase reviews this site sampled, 1 comes from a buyer who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written March 2020 to September 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 31 percent of the 159 reviews written there were positive, against 78 percent overall, and those are 14 percent of everything written about it.

What players say
Real fun game I find myself falling back to every once and a while. Challenging game play. Fun side quests. I really like the feel of the game. It's really in due for an update or sequel
Very frustrating, janky, too hard from the get go and doesn't respect your time. Only buy from sale and if you have tons of time to bang your head over and over to a brick wall.

Convoy scores 48/100 on the BANG Score (a skip). The BANG Score rates what a game is worth for the money. Via Steam BANGERS. https://steambangers.com/game/318230/convoyThe 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.
