The value story

The lowest price on record is $7.99, set in December 2025. Its cuts run 50 percent off as a rule. There have been 25 in the 3 years tracked, about 6 weeks apart. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended about 3 weeks ago.

Against its own genre it lands in the top 22 percent on value. It is pricier than 91 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 84 percent. Among the games that feel like it, No one lives under the lighthouse Director's cut ($6.99, scores 64) beats it on value, while it beats Gray Dawn ($19.99, scores 46).

Steam's global achievement data puts about 6 percent of players at this game's ending achievement. On a 3.6-hour game, the hours short of it still count in its price per hour. 5 of the 402 Steam-purchase reviews sampled here come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written March 2024 to August 2026.

Valve rates it Steam Deck Verified, and at 3.6 hours it is short enough to finish on one.

The drop-off

90% start to 6% finish
050100rarestfirst achievement

Steam counts fewer than one in ten of its players at the ending achievement. On a 3.6-hour game, that's a lot you pay for and may never use. Steam global achievements

What players say

worth it on sale. game bugged at the ending, though. i had no dialogue and it took multiple reloads to get it to trigger just so i could finish the game. it's really only like a 2 hour game, i just paused a lot. this isn't really scary per se, just horror, which i like. story makes sense, not sure why ppl say it doesn't, it's just kind of an okay one.

This is the game to which I compare most games.... my utmost favourite game ever. Trippy AF!!

It's so close to being good. Mostly felt like a carnival haunted house fever dream, which was fun. I didn't much care for the "sneak/run past the monster" levels. But the constant voiceover exposition and forcefed logical plotlines really break the dreamlike qualities. If that doesn't bother you, grab it on sale. But I found myself losing interest as I played.
