The value story

It has never been cheaper than $3.49. That was December 2025. 13 discounts in the 18 months on record. They run about 20 percent off, roughly 6 weeks apart. No sale on record has reached $2.30, the price it would take to be a BANGER.

Against its own genre it lands in the top 2 percent on value. It is cheaper than 66 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 98 percent. Among the games that feel like it, The Cabin Factory ($2.99, scores 73) beats it on value, while it beats Don't Be Afraid ($9.99, scores 54).

Of the 345 Steam-purchase reviews this site sampled, 9 come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written April 2025 to August 2026. That is more refunded reviewers than 8 in 10 paid games this site has sampled to the same depth, and among the 2,814 games in its genre sampled this deeply, 450 have a larger share. Inside the two-hour refund window, 96 percent of the 762 reviews written there were positive, against 94 percent overall, and those are 74 percent of everything written about it.
