The value story
The lowest price on record is $1.99, set in June 2017. It has been discounted 38 times in the 11 years tracked here, typically at 75 percent off, with about 6 weeks between sales.
It is pricier than 68 percent of its genre, and less well reviewed than 94 percent. On the same math Never Alone (Kisima Ingitchuna) ($14.99, scores 46) and Little Nightmares ($4.99, scores 88) are the better buys, and they are the games it most resembles.
Inside the two-hour refund window, 44 percent of the 270 reviews written there were positive, against 63 percent overall, and those are 28 percent of everything written about it.
Valve rates it Steam Deck Verified, and at 2.1 hours it is short enough to finish on one.

What players say
i have played this game, its not bad, i like the story, the graphics, and everything in it. but like most others have said, the controls and the camera are clunky. if you can get past that, and the 2-2/30 hours that it will take for you to beat it. its worth a play through. check it out.
I wouldn't say it was 'hauntingly solitary', but it is passable fun I'll start out by saying I had some trouble with starting up. It says it 'recommends a controller', so I thought my ps4 controller would be okay. Starting the game without checking, I found the camera view was skewed so bad that most of the time I couldn't even see the main character. I had to quit back out and go to the controller menu by right...
A strange, simple story about restoring the old troubles in a world that can no longer handle the new apocalypse.
