The value story

The value story

It has been discounted 97 times in the 11 years tracked here. The median cut across all of them is 90 percent, about 6 weeks apart. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended about 2 weeks ago.

It is less well reviewed than 97 percent of its genre. Cyberhunt ($4.99, scores 57) outscores it, and so does Distant Space ($0.99, scores 58). Both sit among its closest neighbours.

What drives the score

Grades: S best, D weakest

S is the best grade and D the weakest, judged as a buyer. ▲ raises the score, ▼ lowers it, ? is an input we do not have, • is a fact this genre's score does not use. How the grades work

Raising the score
MonetizationNone
Checked: no in-game purchases or loot boxes. That earns a small credit unless Steam lists in-app purchases
Holding it back
Cost per hour$1.61/hr
Price per hour of game. It moves the score inside the ceiling reviews set
Reviews
Gates the score. Weak reviews cap it, and nothing reaches BANGER without strong ones. Scored as 55% after the small-sample adjustment
For context
Refunds0 of 35 reviews
Steam-purchase reviews sampled whose writer refunded the game. Nothing is docked
AI contentNone disclosed
From the developer's own Steam disclosure. No disclosure is not proof of none, so it does not move the score
