The value story

It has never been cheaper than $5.59. That was June 2026. Its cuts run 30 percent off as a rule. There have been 4 in the 7 months tracked, about 9 weeks apart.

Value puts it in the top 1 percent of the games it competes with. It is better reviewed than 96 percent of its genre. Among the games that feel like it, Insomnia: Theater in the Head ($2.49, scores 87) beats it on value, while it beats Magic Archery (free, scores 84).

On this data it would still be a BANGER at $14.08. It costs $7.99.

3 of the 513 Steam-purchase reviews sampled here come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written February 2026 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 82 percent of the 136 reviews written there were positive, against 93 percent overall, and those are 5 percent of everything written about it.
