The value story

60 discounts in the 7 years on record, a median of 40 percent off across all of them, roughly 6 weeks apart. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended 11 days ago.

It is pricier than 88 percent of its genre, and less well reviewed than 93 percent. Youtubers Life ($19.99, scores 44) outscores it, and so does Car Manufacture ($19.99, scores 11). Both sit among its closest neighbours.

No achievement in this game marks the ending, so there is no finish rate. The curve runs from the most-unlocked achievement to the rarest, and its shape is where players stop. Steam global achievements

What players say

It's more interesting to kick a bucket than to play in this game where the only thing you have to do are 4 clicks.
