The value story

The lowest price on record is $1.99, set in September 2026. It has been discounted 8 times in the 9 years tracked here, typically at 40 percent off, with about 14 weeks between sales.

On value it sits in the top 18 percent of its genre. It is pricier than 83 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 85 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Granny ($7.99, scores 62) beats it on value, while it beats The Beast Inside ($24.99, scores 48).

5 of the 507 Steam-purchase reviews sampled here come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written March 2020 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 85 percent of the 668 reviews written there were positive, against 87 percent overall, and those are 21 percent of everything written about it.

At 4.8 hours it is a handheld-sized game, and Valve rates it Deck Verified.
