The value story

It has never been cheaper than $1.94. That was May 2026. It has been discounted 11 times in the 2 years tracked here, typically at 25 percent off, with about 9 weeks between sales. The math puts its BANGER price at $2.18. The record reaches that level 5 times.

Value puts it in the top 1 percent of the games it competes with. It is cheaper than 81 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 98 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Spooky's Jump Scare Mansion (free, scores 84) beats it on value, while it beats The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe ($24.99, scores 60).

Steam's global achievement data puts 58 percent of players at this game's ending achievement. The median game this site can measure sits at 15. This site sampled 515 of its Steam-purchase reviews; 10 were written by buyers who refunded it, sampled from reviews written November 2024 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 93 percent of the 2,580 reviews written there were positive, against 93 percent overall, and those are 86 percent of everything written about it.

Valve rates it Steam Deck Verified, and at 0.9 hours it is short enough to finish on one.

What players say

very nice game, playing the game for the first time i found drops of sweat running down my body, the game features pixelated graphics, and the protagonist has to shake a rat and also squeeze it, we make our way through a house that keeps getting more distourbing and collect parts of a photo of a very special person, 10/10 would reccomend

Feel it. Taste it. Shake it. What is this game? How do I explain? Is it comedy or tragedy? Is it funny or sad... Should I be angry or glad.... To shake the rat like a Polaroid picture. Stop. Shake. Stop. Shake. Don't be too slow. Or you might blow. Up. Up. Down. Down. Left. Right. Shaken not stirred please. Oh no. I forgot to bring the cheese... 10/10 Sweet sacred silliness...
