The value story
May 2025 is where it bottomed out, at $0.49. 14 discounts in the 2 years on record. They run about 51 percent off, roughly 7 weeks apart. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended 9 days ago.
Against its own genre it lands in the top 3 percent on value. It is cheaper than 99 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 86 percent. It outscores the games it most resembles, including Maid of Sker ($24.99, scores 36) and Apsulov: End of Gods ($19.99, scores 51).
1 of the 406 Steam-purchase reviews sampled here comes from a buyer who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written February 2025 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 88 percent of the 742 reviews written there were positive, against 88 percent overall, and those are 80 percent of everything written about it.
The drop-off
89% start to 56% rarestNo achievement in this game marks the ending, so there is no finish rate. The curve runs from the most-unlocked achievement to the rarest, and its shape is where players stop. Steam global achievements
What players say
A story about a kidnapper and his victim. Mind the tags, they are well chosen, this goes into visceral horror as well as very uncomfortable psychology. The translation is a little rough and near the start two lines are fully untranslated, but it doesn't impair understanding of the story. For the small price, this is definitely worth my time.
didn't know Asian men hate their women that much W game tho needs more feminist propaganda and less kidnapping
作者太棒了！故事引人入勝，而且看得出是做了大量的準備的，裏面亞洲男人的發言真的我真人網上都看過，經典得一個不行，有時候看兩段就得歇一會，故事裏還有講 女子防身術 的内容，講得很詳細像教程一樣，充滿了對姐妹們的關愛！强烈推薦！
