The value story
31 discounts in the 10 years on record, a median of 72 percent off across all of them, roughly 12 weeks apart. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended about 146 weeks ago.
It is pricier than 73 percent of its genre, and less well reviewed than 72 percent. Machinarium ($19.99, scores 62) outscores it, and so does Paradigm ($14.99, scores 67). Both sit among its closest neighbours.
The drop-off
70% start to 14% rarestNo achievement in this game marks the ending, so there is no finish rate. The curve runs from the most-unlocked achievement to the rarest, and its shape is where players stop. Steam global achievements
What players say
First off i want to say if its on sale for less than a £1 then pick it up as the visuals are quite nice and the story is kind of interesting but don't buy it for full price or even 50% off. The main reason i have for this decision is how short the game is, as well as the annoying controls and transition animations there are which when you need to back track about 7 doors and you forget the way, you can easily spend...
