The value story
It has been discounted 88 times in the 9 years tracked here. The median cut across all of them is 85 percent, about 5 weeks apart. Today's $0.79 at 84 percent off still sits 61 percent above the floor, so a deeper cut exists in its history.
It is cheaper than 61 percent of its genre, and less well reviewed than 96 percent. Business Tour - Board Game with Online Multiplayer(大富翁) (free, scores 5) outscores it, and so does Sixty Four ($2.99, scores 41). Both sit among its closest neighbours.
The drop-off
40% start to 3% rarestNo achievement in this game marks the ending, so there is no finish rate. The curve runs from the most-unlocked achievement to the rarest, and its shape is where players stop. Steam global achievements

Least fun of the three games. So much repetitive micromanagement for too long. 90% of the game consists of sorting (you read that right) and the remaining 10% is selecting what to cook from a list of 50 (lower end recipes become increasingly worthless as the game progresses).
