The value story

It has never been cheaper than $0.49. That was August 2019. 86 discounts in the 11 years on record. They run about 80 percent off, roughly 5 weeks apart.

It is pricier than 74 percent of its genre. Among the games that feel like it, Stray ($29.99, scores 59) beats it on value, while it beats The Uncertain: Light At The End ($9.99, scores 14).

Inside the two-hour refund window, 67 percent of the 515 reviews written there were positive, against 72 percent overall, and those are 74 percent of everything written about it.
