The value story

November 2022 is where it bottomed out, at $0.27. It has been discounted 84 times in the 10 years tracked here, typically at 75 percent off, with about 6 weeks between sales.

It is cheaper than 88 percent of its genre, and less well reviewed than 99 percent. Shortest Trip to Earth ($25.99, scores 43) outscores it, and so does Alaskan Road Truckers ($21.99, scores 6). Both sit among its closest neighbours.

Steam's global achievement data puts about 3 percent of players at this game's ending achievement. On a 1-hour game, the hours short of it still count in its price per hour. Inside the two-hour refund window, 36 percent of the 157 reviews written there were positive, against 40 percent overall, and those are 59 percent of everything written about it.

1 hours to finish it, 2 to exhaust it. The completionist tail is 2.0 times the campaign.

What players say

This game is quite the journey its actually something everyone should play its probably what lsd and acid trip at the same time is like. I should mention on the third level looks like russia got sanctioned here too since my framerate is like 20 on that map. Didn't know they got the rights to the chicken little alien robots either.

The Last Hope, developed by Balti Calarasi and published by HandMade Games, is a peculiar and ambitious indie project that attempts to combine open-world exploration, survival mechanics, and time-travel adventure into a single sweeping experience. The concept itself sounds intriguing-humanity is on the brink of extinction after a scientific experiment goes horribly wrong, and you are the lone survivor, tasked with...
