The value story
The value story
Across all 72 discounts in the 10 years tracked, the median cut is 40 percent, about 6 weeks apart. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended about 4 weeks ago.
Against its own genre its score lands in the top 1 percent. It is pricier than 87 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 97 percent. The nearest things to it, Dig or Die ($11.99, scores 79) and Space Engineers ($19.99, scores 80), are both worse buys on this math.
On this data it would still be a BANGER at $34.62. It costs $14.99.

What players say
Absolutely amazing game with top tier strategy elements. A true joy to play with friends too. The only bad things I have to say about this game are that the price is a bit steep for what you get, and the campaign is pretty boring. Even though the campaign teaches you some valuable skills, I never really got along to finishing it because it was just so annoying.

YES!!! I love this game, ever since I watched a youtuber play this a few years ago, Its been on my list to buy when ever I buy my PC and its already one of my favorites
This is not a game for players that are not already playing it for 10 years. Impossible to get into if everyone is ultra OP.
