The value story

The lowest price on record is $0.49, set in December 2017. 30 discounts in the 10 years on record. They run about 51 percent off, roughly 7 weeks apart.

It is cheaper than 91 percent of its genre, and less well reviewed than 93 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Ratty Catty ($14.99, scores 11) beats it on value, while it beats Garten of Banban (free, scores 2).

0.9 hours to finish it, 2 to exhaust it. The completionist tail is 2.4 times the campaign.

What players say

Crackhead is a cute, funny little game that's really easy to pick up and play. It doesn't over complicate anything and gave me a few good laughs along the way. Simple, silly fun and worth giving a shot.
