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

It has never been cheaper than $0.49. That was October 2018. Its cuts run 48 percent off as a rule. There have been 112 in the 11 years tracked, about 5 weeks apart. Today it is at full price. The last sale was about 4 weeks ago, and on this game's rhythm the next one tends to arrive within 5 weeks.

Value puts it in the top 1 percent of the games it competes with. It is cheaper than 96 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 96 percent. The nearest things to it, Counter-Strike Nexon (free, scores 17) and Pavlov ($24.99, scores 44), are both worse buys on this math.

The math says it holds its tier up to $7.63, and you are being asked for $0.99.

Steam's global achievement data says about 6 percent of players ever finish it. On a 4.1-hour game, that is a lot of paid-for hours most people never see. 20 of the 800 Steam-purchase reviews sampled here come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written September 2020 to September 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 91 percent of the 8,720 reviews written there were positive, against 95 percent overall, and those are 31 percent of everything written about it.

4.1 hours to finish it, 12 to exhaust it. The completionist tail is 3.0 times the campaign.

[![BANG Score](https://steambangers.com/api/badge/434570)](https://steambangers.com/game/434570/blood-and-bacon)

The 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 14, price as of Sep 24.
