What drives the score
How to read this
Every input gets a grade, S to D, read from the buyer's side. The score is multiplicative, so an input only counts as raising when it sits near the top of its own scale. Anything with real room left is holding the score back, because that room is the gap to 100. ▲ marks a lift, ▼ a drag or a dock, ? an input we do not have, • a fact this genre's score does not use. The exact weights stay secret.
- How long it takes to beat isn't in our data. We scored it as a typical Short indie game (about 4 hours) and docked the score for the missing length.
The value story
It has never been cheaper than $0.99. That was October 2017. Its cuts run 75 percent off as a rule. There have been 59 in the 14 years tracked, about 8 weeks apart. Today's $0.99 at 80 percent off matches the lowest price in the record.
Value puts it in the top 1 percent of the games it competes with. It is pricier than 68 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 99 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Peggle Deluxe ($0.99, scores 97) beats it on value, while it beats PAC-MAN™ Championship Edition DX+ ($9.99, scores 80).
The press gave it 76; the people who bought it give it 97 percent. A 21-point gap in the buyer's favour.
Inside the two-hour refund window, 91 percent of the 476 reviews written there were positive, against 97 percent overall, and those are 16 percent of everything written about it.

Peggle™ Nights scores 81/100 on the BANG Score (worth it). Length is estimated at 4 hours, not measured, so the score is docked. The BANG Score rates what a game is worth for the money. Via Steam BANGERS. https://steambangers.com/game/3540/peggle-nightsThe BANG Score is one number for value, 0 to 100: price against how it reviews and how long it was built to be. It answers the money question and stops there; whether the game is for you is still your call.
Reviews set the ceiling and price moves you inside it, so a cheap game that reviews badly cannot climb. Ratings from few reviewers are shrunk toward the middle, so 100 percent from nine people does not outrank 96 percent from ninety thousand. Length comes from HowLongToBeat where it can be matched, measured against a per-genre floor so a five-hour narrative game is judged against other narrative games rather than against a sixty-hour RPG. Where no verified length exists the score says so and carries a dock, because the biggest input is then a guess. The full method, including where it is weak → Steam reviews as of Sep 3, price as of Sep 24.
