More about Accident

Of the 641 Steam-purchase reviews this site sampled, 16 come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written October 2020 to October 2026. That is more refunded reviewers than 8 in 10 paid games this site has sampled to the same depth, and among the 2,597 games in its genre sampled this deeply, 535 have a larger share. Inside the two-hour refund window, 57 percent of the 395 reviews written there were positive, against 77 percent overall, and those are 27 percent of everything written about it.

What players say

20 bucks for about 2 hours of content. It's okay, but the game is dead. It would have been nice to have some consistent updates or more scenarioes/randomisation. As it is, though, you can play it through in about 2 hours, and there's zero replay value.

Sadly, this feels and looks like a dead game. Dev's haven't added any new content since 2024 and I don't foresee this changing this any time soon. with that IS playable, it's pretty fun, even if it is only for like 1-2 hours. Some of the scenarios really do make you think. If they decide to add new scenarios or any content of any kind, at any time, I will gladly change my review but at this time, I simply CANNOT...

Not bad at all, wish there was some probability to have new cases using the workshop and mods at all. Small game, btw, and kinda lacks a challenge sometimes. it's good, but try to grt it at a promo
