Modeled estimate, not a reported figure. How we estimate →
Prices
Each in the currency that store quoted — not converted: the gap between two rows is the publisher's pricing, not an exchange rate.
14 of 15 markets; the rest we haven't asked for this title, not markets where it is unavailable.
Availability
We put this game to every storefront we collect. A market that answered not sold has told us something about the game; a market we never asked has not, and the two are never drawn the same.
Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 0.86/day in the week to Aug 13 → 6.43/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 24 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 9 places towards #1, and the 2,404 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

14 on sale1 answered “not sold”0 we did not ask
The 1 “not sold” market is read from the Steam price pass of Sep 13: that day the store answered for this game elsewhere and gave no price there. The 14 priced markets are the same rows as the table above — each the latest price we hold, dated here when it is older than that pass. The 0 marked “not asked” were not put to this store at all — either it has no storefront there or we do not collect it yet, and neither is a statement about the game. A refusal is a refusal on one day; a store can list a title again tomorrow.

Es un clásico arcade que sigue siendo muy divertido y entretenido incluso después de tantos años. La acción, los enemigos y la sensación de jugarlo como en una recreativa siguen funcionando muy bien. Eso sí, la versión de PC tiene algunos problemas de resolución de pantalla y rendimiento. Son problemas que puedo entender en una versión arcade antigua, pero al tratarse de una versión para PC/Steam creo que deberían haberse solucionado o adaptado mejor. A pesar de estos inconvenientes, disfruté mucho el juego y lo recomiendo, especialmente si te gustan los clásicos arcade. [u]Si mi reseña te ayudó a decidir si comprarlo o no, te agradecería mucho si le das un premio.[/u] ¡Gracias por leer! :)
