The value story

The value story

It has never been cheaper than $6.24. That was November 2021. Across all 80 discounts in the 8 years tracked, the median cut is 75 percent, about 5 weeks apart.

Against its own genre its score lands in the top 3 percent. It is pricier than 96 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 96 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Unrailed! ($19.99, scores 83) beats it on value, while it beats Overcooked ($16.99, scores 64).

More about Overcooked! 2

The press gave it 81; the people who bought it give it 90 percent. A 9-point gap in the buyer's favour.

This site sampled 800 of its Steam-purchase reviews; 3 were written by buyers who refunded it, sampled from reviews written February 2026 to October 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 76 percent of the 4,820 reviews written there were positive, against 90 percent overall, and those are 8 percent of everything written about it. It sells extras on top of the sticker price (cosmetic, finite spend); the score docks it lightly for that.

7.1 hours to finish it, 26 to exhaust it. The completionist tail is 3.6 times the campaign.

It carries Valve's Deck Verified rating and runs 7.1 hours, about as long as a handheld game wants to be.

What players say

I thought this was gonna be a cute little cooking game. Yeah… no You start off thinking it's gonna be easy, and 5 minutes later everything's on fire, the kitchen's moving and nobody knows what's going on Playing with someone makes it 10x funnier bc you either work together like a dream or end up blaming each other for everything It's chaotic, ridiculously fun n somehow you always end up saying "one more level" n...

Such good game to play with 2 players or more and scream at them, what only irritates me is that the MULTIPLAYER SUCKS idk if its the servers or whatever but omg every time I die somehow my character is useless and cannot chop nor grab things anymore...which makes us restart the game...and when it loads it takes so DAMN LONG
