What drives the score

How to read this

Grades run S to D, read from the buyer's side. ▲ marks a lift, ▼ a drag or a dock, ? an input we do not have, • a fact this genre's score does not use. How the grades work

What we assumed
  • Steam lists in-app purchases but we have no detail on them. Small caution applied.

Trending up vs lifetime, a small lift
Holding it back
Reviews74% positive
Gates the score. Weak reviews cap it, and nothing reaches BANGER without strong ones
Reach350K+ owners
How many own it, by SteamSpy's estimate (an old snapshot). A free game has no price to weigh, so this is its value read
MonetizationIn-app purchases
Steam lists in-app purchases and nothing more is known, so a small haircut
For context
RefundsFree
A free game cannot be refunded, so the label never applies
AI contentNone disclosed
From the developer's own Steam disclosure. No disclosure is not proof of none, so it does not move the score

The value story

Against its own genre it lands in the top 29 percent on value. It is better reviewed than 64 percent of its genre. Among the games that feel like it, Bodycam ($33.32, scores 46) beats it on value, while it beats Pixel Strike 3D (free, scores 34).

Players rate it 74 percent positive over its lifetime, and the last 30 days run 86 percent. It is aging into a better game than its average suggests. Inside the two-hour refund window, 63 percent of the 572 reviews written there were positive, against 74 percent overall, and those are 33 percent of everything written about it.
