The value story

It has never been cheaper than $3.24. That was August 2026. It has been discounted 10 times in the 15 months tracked here, typically at 25 percent off, with about 6 weeks between sales.

Against its own genre it lands in the top 1 percent on value. It is cheaper than 66 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 97 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Chef Knight ($5.99, scores 86) beats it on value, while it beats Learn to Fly 3 (free, scores 83).

Steam's global achievement data puts 57 percent of players at this game's ending achievement. The median game this site can measure sits at 15. 1 of the 566 Steam-purchase reviews sampled here comes from a buyer who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written July 2025 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 82 percent of the 178 reviews written there were positive, against 91 percent overall, and those are 6 percent of everything written about it.

At 5 hours it is a handheld-sized game, and Valve rates it Deck Verified.
