8 of the 800 Steam-purchase reviews sampled here come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written August 2026 to October 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 49 percent of the 5,623 reviews written there were positive, against 81 percent overall, and those are 3 percent of everything written about it. It sells extras on top of the sticker price (time-limited); the score docks it lightly for that.

This game is very fun, especially when you drink the in-game alcohol and in a car.
1. The canon ending is straight up trash. 2. The protagonist doesn't speak a word 3. The villain is a Schizophrenic who believes he's chosen by God to prepare the world for a coming apocalypse.... and this delusional dude ends up being right.... an apocalypse did happen I thought the entire game was about proving this delusional fake prophet wrong.... trash ending in my opinion
