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 March 2024. 81 discounts in the 11 years on record. They run about 75 percent off, roughly 5 weeks apart. Today it is at full price. The last sale was this month, and on this game's rhythm the next one tends to arrive within 5 weeks.
On value it sits in the top 6 percent of its genre. It is pricier than 89 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 83 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Shakes and Fidget (free, scores 76) beats it on value, while it beats Chaos Reborn ($9.99, scores 32).
Of the 433 Steam-purchase reviews this site sampled, 1 comes from a buyer who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written April 2020 to September 2026.
Finishing takes 11.8 hours; clearing it takes 125, which is 11 times the campaign.

What players say
I love card games, but this is ridiculous. How can a game this bad, with max 40 players and completely abandoned have positive reviews. CO-OP is locked behind level (progression is slow and unrewarding) and the AI literally cheats (+mana, + hp, +cards) to the point it is just stupid to play some modes. And most important: YOU CAN'T PLAY OFFLINE. They'll eventually shut down everything and everyone loses the progress...
Player reviews from Steam: the most helpful all-time, plus the newest that clear the same quality bar, with the hours each player had put in when they wrote it. The mix of Recommended and Not recommended follows the game's Steam ratio. Rotates daily. Opinions are theirs.

Faeria scores 65/100 on the BANG Score (fair value). The BANG Score rates what a game is worth for the money. Via Steam BANGERS. https://steambangers.com/game/397060/faeriaThe 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 17, price as of Sep 24.
