The value story
The lowest price on record is $13.59, set in September 2025. It has been discounted 35 times in the 6 years tracked here, typically at 10 percent off, with about 8 weeks between sales.
Against its own genre it lands in the top 1 percent on value. It is pricier than 93 percent of its genre, and the best reviewed. The nearest things to it, Everhood 2 ($11.99, scores 39) and Everhood ($9.99, scores 86), are both worse buys on this math.
$30.03 is where it would stop being a BANGER. It is priced at $19.99.
Critics scored it 89. Players sit 9 points higher at 98 percent, which usually means a game that plays better than it reviews.
Steam's global achievement data puts about 20 percent of players at this game's ending achievement. On a 4.3-hour game, the hours short of it still count in its price per hour. This site sampled 757 of its Steam-purchase reviews; 12 were written by buyers who refunded it, sampled from reviews written February 2021 to September 2026. That is fewer refunded reviewers than 8 in 10 paid games this site has sampled to the same depth, and among the 2,814 games in its genre sampled this deeply, 2,474 have a larger share. Inside the two-hour refund window, 95 percent of the 4,782 reviews written there were positive, against 98 percent overall, and those are 19 percent of everything written about it.
Finishing takes 4.3 hours; clearing it takes 19, which is 4.3 times the campaign.
At 4.3 hours it is a handheld-sized game, and Valve rates it Deck Verified.

What players say
Such a great game and SO underrated I have heard no one talk about this absolute gem??? Stumbled on it through steam recommendations and I do not regret buying it. The gameplay is based off using one singular button which seems basic but they do such an incredible and creative job at making it really fun. The characters are packed with personality and story and you go through each one of their lives while jamming to...
I would've strongly preferred a more interesting difficulty ramp. If you're a musician you'll one-shot 99% of the content in your first setting with no mistakes. And then there's a bunch of levels I would say are so unmusical that I don't think they really fit with the rest of the game. You're not trying to play a rhythm anymore you're just trying to ignore the game. I'd much rather have had a lot of mid-tier...
