The value story

Across all 74 discounts in the 10 years tracked, the median cut is 75 percent, about 6 weeks apart. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended 11 days ago.

Value puts it in the top 30 percent of the games it competes with. It is pricier than 94 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 67 percent. Iconoclasts ($19.99, scores 59) outscores it, and so does La-Mulana 2 ($24.99, scores 71). Both sit among its closest neighbours.

I like how it looks but for me it wasn't fun to play. I remember I got stuck on a puzzle and even after trying multiple times and looking up the solution, I couldn't get it to work. At that point, I decided to just drop the game since I wasn't that into it anyway.
