The value story
June 2023 is where it bottomed out, at $9.19. 59 discounts in the 6 years on record. They run about 50 percent off, roughly 6 weeks apart.
Against its own genre it lands in the top 4 percent on value. It is pricier than 93 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 88 percent. Among the games that feel like it, RimWorld ($34.99, scores 97) beats it on value, while it beats Planetbase ($14.99, scores 49).
Of the 699 Steam-purchase reviews this site sampled, 5 come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written April 2025 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 63 percent of the 553 reviews written there were positive, against 86 percent overall, and those are 5 percent of everything written about it.
Finishing takes 15.2 hours; clearing it takes 75, which is 4.9 times the campaign.

What players say
I'm a big colony sim fan, and this one is a lot of fun. I bounced off it a few times in early access, but the 1.0 release is a real treat.
top teir game for people who are into building/resource management/Rimworld The game is so addictive... It literally deletes time in your life because, before you know it, it's 5am and your pets are asking where the f**k breakfast is...
Great game to do multiple starts whether you choose to follow the main storyline or not. I just have fun being either a space pirate or a pillager and causing trouble and building some really cool ships and managing my crew.
