The value story

The lowest price on record is $17.85, set in June 2026. It has gone on sale once in the 4 months tracked here, most recently in June 2026. No sale on record has reached $6.47, the price it would take to be a BANGER.

Value puts it in the top 6 percent of the games it competes with. It is pricier than 97 percent of its genre, and the best reviewed. On the same math Incredibox ($4.99, scores 64) and Obama Maze (free, scores 64) are the better buys, and they are the games it most resembles.

Steam's global achievement data puts 79 percent of players at this game's ending achievement. The median game this site can measure sits at 15. Of the 310 Steam-purchase reviews this site sampled, none come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written June 2026 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 98 percent of the 115 reviews written there were positive, against 99 percent overall, and those are 10 percent of everything written about it.

It carries Valve's Deck Verified rating and runs 4 hours, about as long as a handheld game wants to be.
