The value story
It has never been cheaper than $13.99. That was September 2025. It has been discounted 34 times in the 7 years tracked here, typically at 25 percent off, with about 11 weeks between sales.
Value puts it in the top 7 percent of the games it competes with. It is pricier than 93 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 96 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Catlateral Damage ($9.99, scores 66) beats it on value, while it beats Job Simulator ($19.99, scores 58).
Critics scored it 77. Players sit 14 points higher at 91 percent, which usually means a game that plays better than it reviews.
Steam's global achievement data puts about 17 percent of players at this game's ending achievement. On a 4.1-hour game, the hours short of it still count in its price per hour. Of the 346 Steam-purchase reviews this site sampled, 6 come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written April 2020 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 76 percent of the 160 reviews written there were positive, against 91 percent overall, and those are 17 percent of everything written about it.

i wanna refund for my vacation cause one of the bots just feed me some gear stuff and made me drink some expired oil and now i paid like 238907$ just for them trying to kill me
A true sequel to "Job Simulator" in that is does more while keeping the humor and general vibe I liked already. While "Job Simulator" had static levels, here we do actually go to different stations. It's simple teleporting and works well. You can keep items in your hand, but you also get a backpack to move 8 items at once. The core charm of the game are the many possible interactions, mini-challenges and of course...
