What drives the score

How to read this

Grades run S to D, read from the buyer's side. ▲ marks a lift, ▼ a drag or a dock, ? an input we do not have, • a fact this genre's score does not use. How the grades work

What we assumed
  • How long it takes to beat isn't in our data. We scored it as a typical Strategy game (about 8 hours) and docked the score for the missing length.

The value story

The lowest price on record is $11.99, set in June 2026. It has gone on sale 2 times in the 3 months tracked here, most recently in August 2026.

Against its own genre it lands in the top 12 percent on value. It is pricier than 78 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 93 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Supermarket Together (free, scores 89) beats it on value, while it beats Truck & Logistics Simulator ($9.99, scores 29).

Players rate it 89 percent positive over its lifetime, but the last 30 days run 79 percent. Something recent has soured the room. This site sampled 420 of its Steam-purchase reviews; 5 were written by buyers who refunded it, sampled from reviews written May 2025 to August 2026.

It carries Valve's Deck Verified rating, which is the one that means it just works.
