The value story

It has never been cheaper than $0.55. That was December 2024. It has been discounted 13 times in the 3 years tracked here, typically at 70 percent off, with about 12 weeks between sales.

Against its own genre it lands in the top 1 percent on value. It is cheaper than 68 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 99 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Zup! 8 ($1.99, scores 93) beats it on value, while it beats Zup! 5 ($1.99, scores 85).

Of the 377 Steam-purchase reviews this site sampled, 2 come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written May 2020 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 96 percent of the 4,240 reviews written there were positive, against 96 percent overall, and those are 65 percent of everything written about it.

At 0.9 hours it is a handheld-sized game, and Valve rates it Deck Verified.
