Worth it · Strategy · 2019
Solid value for the price: about 66.6h, $22.49 (~$0.34/hr), 85% positive.
The verdict
Worth it at $22.49.
A fair value now, it won't reach BANGER at any price.
$0.34/hr over the 66.6h main story, $0.14/hr if you 100% it (163.1h).
Heads up: only 0% finish a 66.6h game, so budget for the first stretch, not the full ride.
Better value than 90% of Strategy games
They Are Billions is a Steampunk strategy game set on a post-apocalyptic planet. Build and defend colonies to survive against the billions of the infected that seek to annihilate the few remaining living humans. Can humanity survive after the zombie apocalypse?
