The value story

The value story

It has never been cheaper than $14.99. That was January 2016. In 11 years of price history it has never once been discounted.

It is pricier than 67 percent of its genre, and less well reviewed than 99 percent. Gunscape ($19.99, scores 13) outscores it, and so does Ravenfield ($17.99, scores 66). Both sit among its closest neighbours.

More about Garbage Day

Of the 430 Steam-purchase reviews this site sampled, 11 come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written March 2020 to July 2026. That is more refunded reviewers than 9 in 10 paid games this site has sampled to the same depth, and among the 1,424 games in its genre sampled this deeply, 112 have a larger share. The typical game sits near 5 in 1,000, so the score docks it. 1 of the 11 refunded reviewers was past Valve's two-hour window when they wrote the review. Inside the two-hour refund window, 28 percent of the 465 reviews written there were positive, against 32 percent overall, and those are 44 percent of everything written about it.

What drives the score

Grades: S best, D weakest

S is the best grade and D the weakest, judged as a buyer. ▲ raises the score, ▼ lowers it, ? is an input we do not have, • is 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 Shooter game (about 6 hours) and docked the score for the missing length.

Reviews
Gates the score. Weak reviews cap it, and nothing reaches BANGER without strong ones. Scored as 34% after the small-sample adjustment
Refunds11 of 430 reviews
Well above the typical game's share of reviews from refunded buyers, so the score takes a small dock
Early accessUnfinished
Still in development, a small confidence discount until 1.0
Length unknownNo verified $/hr
No length in our data yet, so the biggest driver can't be verified. A heavy dock until it is

No monetization record for this game, so nothing is assumed either way
AI contentNone disclosed
From the developer's own Steam disclosure. No disclosure is not proof of none, so it does not move the score

About the game

Garbage Day is an open world sandbox game, in which you are stuck in a time loop (meaning you live the same day over and over). In this game you have to explore and interact to find out how to get out of the time loop. You are open to do anything you want, kill innocent people, go to work, watch tv, go to the park, etc.

Reviews set the ceiling, and price against its genre's typical length moves the BANG Score inside it, docked until a real length is known. How it works, and where it is weak → Steam reviews as of Nov 1, price as of Nov 7. A number here look wrong? Tell me and I will check the inputs.
