What drives the score

How to read this

Grades run S to D, read from the buyer's side. ▲ marks a lift, ▼ a drag or a dock, ? an input we do not have, • a fact this genre's score does not use. How the grades work

Holding it back
Reviews84% positive
Gates the score. Weak reviews cap it, and nothing reaches BANGER without strong ones
Reach350K+ owners
How many own it and play it, by SteamSpy's estimates (an old snapshot), the biggest driver for a game with no ending
For context
Value$0.79/hr
Price per hour of game. This genre scores on player counts instead
Length7.6 hours
Typical playtime on HowLongToBeat. Endless games score on players, so hours stay out of it
MonetizationNot known
No monetization record for this game, so nothing is assumed either way
Refunds2 of 643 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

The value story

The lowest price on record is $1.07, set in August 2026. 80 discounts in the 10 years on record. They run about 70 percent off, roughly 6 weeks apart.

Against its own genre it lands in the top 38 percent on value. It is cheaper than 75 percent of its genre. Among the games that feel like it, Keplerth ($14.99, scores 67) beats it on value, while it beats Dead Age ($14.99, scores 57).

Of the 643 Steam-purchase reviews this site sampled, 2 come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written March 2020 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 60 percent of the 516 reviews written there were positive, against 84 percent overall, and those are 10 percent of everything written about it.

HowLongToBeat players log 7.6 hours as a typical playtime, and completionists log 42, 5.5 times as much.

What players say

Hello there! I like this game. A pretty simple gameplay after spending about an hour remembering the items and crafts. The only downside is the incomplete translation from Chinese and English. I mean, come on, I pay for this game. Isn't it supposed to be ready for global commercialization? What's with the confusing texts? All in all, a decent game.
