The value story

December 2022 is where it bottomed out, at $0.39. 55 discounts in the 11 years on record. They run about 75 percent off, roughly 6 weeks apart.

Against its own genre it lands in the top 3 percent on value. It is cheaper than 83 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 90 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Vecter (free, scores 73) beats it on value, while it beats WAVESHAPER ($1.89, scores 65).

Inside the two-hour refund window, 81 percent of the 431 reviews written there were positive, against 86 percent overall, and those are 49 percent of everything written about it.

The main story runs 0.9 hours. Doing everything runs 3, 2.9 times as long.

The drop-off

18% start to 5% rarest

No 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

Amazing game. Simple but addicting. Would recommend. DLC has a different fun feel to it that makes the game enjoyable. Base game is amazing as is. Geometry Dash players would enjoy.
