Rick and Morty: Virtual Rick-ality smashes together the absolute VR chaos of the award-winning Job Simulator with the ridiculous, all-out, take-no-prisoners comedy of Rick and Morty.

Gates the score. Weak reviews cap it, and nothing reaches BANGER without strong ones

Well above the typical game's share of reviews from refunded buyers, so the score takes a small dock

The value story

It has never been cheaper than $5.99. That was March 2020. It has been discounted 32 times in the 9 years tracked here, typically at 50 percent off, with about 7 weeks between sales.

It is pricier than 97 percent of its genre. Among the games that feel like it, Job Simulator ($19.99, scores 58) beats it on value, while it beats Dude Simulator 3 ($4.99, scores 18).

Steam's global achievement data puts about 5 percent of players at this game's ending achievement. On a 2.1-hour game, the hours short of it still count in its price per hour. 57 of the 612 Steam-purchase reviews sampled here come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written March 2020 to August 2026. That is more refunded reviewers than 9 in 10 paid games this site has sampled to the same depth, and among the 2,725 games in its genre sampled this deeply, 14 have a larger share. The typical game sits near 5 in 1,000, so the score docks it. 7 of the 57 refunded reviewers were past Valve's two-hour window when they wrote the review. Inside the two-hour refund window, 59 percent of the 839 reviews written there were positive, against 75 percent overall, and those are 37 percent of everything written about it.

Finishing takes 2.1 hours; clearing it takes 7, which is 3.4 times the campaign.

The drop-off

Steam counts fewer than one in ten of its players at the ending achievement. On a 2.1-hour game, that's a lot you pay for and may never use. Steam global achievements
