The value story

The lowest price on record is $0.39, set in November 2022. It has been discounted 56 times in the 10 years tracked here, typically at 80 percent off, with about 7 weeks between sales.

It is less well reviewed than 94 percent of its genre. The games it most resembles do better on the same math. Hacker Simulator ($17.49, scores 26) and Internet Cafe Simulator ($9.99, scores 32) both outscore it.

Inside the two-hour refund window, 63 percent of the 1,026 reviews written there were positive, against 60 percent overall, and those are 71 percent of everything written about it.
