The value story

93 discounts in the 10 years on record, a median of 60 percent off across all of them, roughly 5 weeks apart. Today's $0.69 at 86 percent off still sits 156 percent above the floor, so a deeper cut exists in its history.

It is less well reviewed than 82 percent of its genre. Among the games that feel like it, SimAirport ($24.99, scores 51) beats it on value, while it beats Gunsmith ($19.99, scores 19).
