The value story
The value story
Across all 48 discounts in the 6 years tracked, the median cut is 30 percent, about 6 weeks apart. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended about 4 weeks ago.
Against its own genre its score lands in the top 1 percent. It is pricier than 99 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 99 percent. The nearest things to it, Hydroneer ($4.49, scores 71) and TerraTech Worlds ($29.99, scores 10), are both worse buys on this math.
More about Satisfactory
Steam's global achievement data puts about 6 percent of players at this game's ending achievement. On a 111.9-hour game, the hours short of it still count in its price per hour. Of the 800 Steam-purchase reviews this site sampled, 12 come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written March 2026 to October 2026. That is fewer refunded reviewers than 8 in 10 paid games this site has sampled to the same depth, and among the 2,604 games in its genre sampled this deeply, 2,237 have a larger share. Inside the two-hour refund window, 75 percent of the 3,966 reviews written there were positive, against 97 percent overall, and those are 2 percent of everything written about it.
282,002 people have reviewed it, which is a big enough crowd to settle the number.
It carries Valve's Deck Verified rating, which is the one that means it just works.

This game is incredibly fun. After downloading it and putting thousands of hours into multiple worlds, my life became satisfactory. I love the subtle simplicity to building conveyer belts, to almost needing to make a map planning room to balance inputs and outputs of megafactories, making sure they run at 100% efficiency. There is no more fun game out there for someone who likes building, an engineer if you will...
I wanted to love Satisfactory. Sincerely. I like building systems. I like optimization. I like figuring out how things interact. I love games that reward exploration, experimentation, and understanding. On paper, Satisfactory was the game for me. Instead, I have rarely played a game that does such a poor job of teaching the player its own basic language. My problem is not that Satisfactory is complicated...

About the game
Satisfactory is a first-person open-world factory building game with a dash of exploration and combat. Play alone or with friends, explore an alien planet, create multi-story factories, and enter conveyor belt heaven!
