What drives the score
How to read this
Every input gets a grade, S to D, read from the buyer's side. The score is multiplicative, so an input only counts as raising when it sits near the top of its own scale. Anything with real room left is holding the score back, because that room is the gap to 100. ▲ marks a lift, ▼ a drag or a dock, ? an input we do not have, • a fact this genre's score does not use. The exact weights stay secret.
The value story
It has never been cheaper than $0.49. That was June 2019. 20 discounts in the 14 years on record. They run about 80 percent off, roughly 18 weeks apart.
On value it sits in the top 15 percent of its genre. It is cheaper than 61 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 81 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Orcs Must Die! 2 ($3.74, scores 89) beats it on value, while it beats Century: Age of Ashes (free, scores 35).
Inside the two-hour refund window, 68 percent of the 180 reviews written there were positive, against 79 percent overall, and those are 20 percent of everything written about it.

What players say
The year is 2026. Monday Night Combat still runs. There is still a single dedicated server running should anyone want to play again.
Among the first games I've ever owned on steam, I liked playing was fun, had character, despite being trully a DECADE since i've last played this, I still remember the matches, wonder how it is now, and already sad because it's most likely dead.
I don't understsnd if the game is dead why is it still out and $5.49 for a copy Why would you think to sell a copy if you cant fully play it .
Player reviews from Steam: the most helpful all-time, plus the newest that clear the same quality bar, with the hours each player had put in when they wrote it. The mix of Recommended and Not recommended follows the game's Steam ratio. Rotates daily. Opinions are theirs.

Monday Night Combat scores 49/100 on the BANG Score (a skip). The BANG Score rates what a game is worth for the money. Via Steam BANGERS. https://steambangers.com/game/63200/monday-night-combatThe BANG Score is one number for value, 0 to 100: price against how it reviews and how long it was built to be. It answers the money question and stops there; whether the game is for you is still your call.
Reviews set the ceiling and price moves you inside it, so a cheap game that reviews badly cannot climb. Ratings from few reviewers are shrunk toward the middle, so 100 percent from nine people does not outrank 96 percent from ninety thousand. Length comes from HowLongToBeat where it can be matched, measured against a per-genre floor so a five-hour narrative game is judged against other narrative games rather than against a sixty-hour RPG. Where no verified length exists the score says so and carries a dock, because the biggest input is then a guess. The full method, including where it is weak → Steam reviews as of Sep 5, price as of Sep 24.
