The value story
It has never been cheaper than $2.49. That was September 2021. Its cuts run 50 percent off as a rule. There have been 86 in the 8 years tracked, about 4 weeks apart.
Value puts it in the top 5 percent of the games it competes with. It is better reviewed than 88 percent of its genre. Among the games closest to it, Z1 Battle Royale (free, scores 3) and Half Dead ($1.99, scores 52) both come in lower.
Steam's global achievement data puts about 1 percent of players at this game's ending achievement. On a 1.9-hour game, the hours short of it still count in its price per hour. Of the 428 Steam-purchase reviews this site sampled, 6 come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written April 2020 to August 2026. That is more refunded reviewers than 7 in 10 paid games this site has sampled to the same depth, and among the 2,814 games in its genre sampled this deeply, 841 have a larger share. Inside the two-hour refund window, 72 percent of the 696 reviews written there were positive, against 84 percent overall, and those are 38 percent of everything written about it.
At 1.9 hours it is a handheld-sized game, and Valve rates it Deck Verified.
The drop-off
94% start to 1% finishSteam counts fewer than one in ten of its players at the ending achievement. On a 1.9-hour game, that's a lot you pay for and may never use. Steam global achievements
What players say
With the first one I already felt half dead playing it so naturally I convinced a friend to buy the second one with me but who could have expected he felt half dead 2
Fun! *IF* you can get friends to play with you. I love what this game once was, but as it is now it is basically dead in the water. Though I love the game... I cannot recommend it.
