The value story

Across all 77 discounts in the 7 years tracked, the median cut is 75 percent, about 5 weeks apart. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended about 21 weeks ago.

It is less well reviewed than 88 percent of its genre. On the same math Yet Another Zombie Defense HD ($0.75, scores 56) and Delivery from the Pain:Survival / 末日方舟:生存 ($7.99, scores 50) are the better buys, and they are the games it most resembles.
