Best value games on Steam by cost per hour

The Steam games that stretch your money furthest, ranked by real cost per hour: the current price divided by the hours players have actually logged, tracked on Coilr. It’s a truer measure of value than a discount %, because a cheap game you bounce off isn’t a deal. Each game links to its player-count history, price history, reviews and “is it worth it?” verdict.
