The value story

52 discounts in the 6 years on record, a median of 67 percent off across all of them, roughly 7 weeks apart. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended 11 days ago.

On value it sits in the top 1 percent of its genre. It is pricier than 77 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 97 percent. Among the games closest to it, Dinkum ($19.99, scores 86) and Everything ($1.49, scores 65) both come in lower.

$49.39 is where it would stop being a BANGER.

Criminally underrated, absolutely amazing game. Spans multiple genres and nails them all.
