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.
The value story
The lowest price on record is $3.99, set in January 2024. It has been discounted 60 times in the 11 years tracked here, typically at 60 percent off, with about 8 weeks between sales. Today it is at full price. The last sale was about 13 weeks ago, and on this game's rhythm the next one tends to arrive within 8 weeks.
On value it sits in the top 1 percent of its genre. It is pricier than 90 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 97 percent. Among the games that feel like it, SYNTHETIK: Legion Rising ($19.99, scores 82) beats it on value, while it beats Nation Red ($2.99, scores 77).
This site sampled 800 of its Steam-purchase reviews; 13 were written by buyers who refunded it, sampled from reviews written May 2024 to September 2026.

HELLDIVERS™ Dive Harder Edition scores 79/100 on the BANG Score (worth it). The BANG Score rates what a game is worth for the money. Via Steam BANGERS. https://steambangers.com/game/394510/helldivers-dive-harder-editionThe 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 12, price as of Sep 24.
