The value story

It has never been cheaper than $1.99. That was April 2024. 85 discounts in the 8 years on record. They run about 60 percent off, roughly 5 weeks apart.

Value puts it in the top 1 percent of the games it competes with. It is pricier than 86 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 98 percent. Among the games closest to it, Gachi Heroes ($0.99, scores 88) and Nyan Cat: Lost In Space ($4.99, scores 81) both come in lower.

$4.46 is where it would stop being a BANGER. It is priced at $2.99.

This site sampled 351 of its Steam-purchase reviews; 1 was written by a buyer who refunded it, sampled from reviews written June 2020 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 92 percent of the 507 reviews written there were positive, against 94 percent overall, and those are 35 percent of everything written about it.

At 4.8 hours it is a handheld-sized game, and Valve rates it Deck Verified.

Sweet and dirty little nukige. Good art, voice acting and hilarious h-scene dialogue. Surprisingly good writing throughout. Hinowa is adorable.
