Why the huge price increase? I paid $5.99 for this game in June 2022 according to my Steam receipt. SteamDB says this game was $9.99 until November 3 2025 when not on sale with sale prices reaching as low as $3.39. Then the price jumped to $24.99 with sale prices of $17.49? Good game, but 26 year old games should go down in price, not increase by 150% (not on sale) and 400% (sale price).
