What drives the score
How to read this
Every input gets a grade, S to D, read from the buyer's side. The score is multiplicative, so an input only counts as raising when it sits near the top of its own scale. Anything with real room left is holding the score back, because that room is the gap to 100. ▲ marks a lift, ▼ a drag or a dock, ? an input we do not have, • a fact this genre's score does not use. The exact weights stay secret.
The value story
Against its own genre it lands in the top 25 percent on value. It is better reviewed than 68 percent of its genre. Among the games that feel like it, Minion Masters (free, scores 67) beats it on value, while it beats KARDS - The WW2 Card Game (free, scores 21).
Steam's global achievement data puts 46 percent of players at this game's ending achievement. The median game this site can measure sits at 8. It carries the aggressive kind of in-app purchases, and the score already docks it for that.
It is still busy. 135 players were in it at once at the last check, across 81 days of tracking. Free to start. Steam lists the aggressive monetization types on it: loot box.

Eternal Card Game scores 44/100 on the BANG Score (a skip). The BANG Score rates what a game is worth for the money. Via Steam BANGERS. https://steambangers.com/game/531640/eternal-card-gameThe BANG Score is one number for value, 0 to 100: price against how it reviews and how long it was built to be. It answers the money question and stops there; whether the game is for you is still your call.
Reviews set the ceiling and price moves you inside it, so a cheap game that reviews badly cannot climb. Ratings from few reviewers are shrunk toward the middle, so 100 percent from nine people does not outrank 96 percent from ninety thousand. Length comes from HowLongToBeat where it can be matched, measured against a per-genre floor so a five-hour narrative game is judged against other narrative games rather than against a sixty-hour RPG. Where no verified length exists the score says so and carries a dock, because the biggest input is then a guess. The full method, including where it is weak → Steam reviews as of Sep 17.
