'Congratulations On Your Purchase' is a walking simulator game released on Steam on May 28, 2026, with an asking price of $999.99 [1, 2, 3, 4].
The gameplay consists mainly of walking down a corridor lined with paparazzi and signing a visible in-game wall for future players to see. The experience lasts approximately 10 minutes before concluding [1, 2, 3, 4].
The developer, Minimum Viable Prestige, and publisher, Worth It Studio, have no other known releases on Steam. The store page displays formatting errors and notes that some artwork was created using generative AI tools [1, 2].
Only between three and six players have signed the in-game wall, indicating limited engagement. SteamDB data shows a peak concurrent player count of one on launch day [1, 2, 3].
The steep $999.99 price tag is intentional. The store page states, "The price is not a mistake. It is the point." It describes the game as a social experiment and satire addressing luxury, wealth, and value in gaming [1, 2, 3]. Another quote says, "The question of whether this experience is worth $999.99 is, philosophically speaking, unanswerable. Worth is constructed. Price is arbitrary." [2]
Some community members have criticized the game as a scam or not a genuine title [2]. While the developers call it the most expensive game on Steam, one source ranks it only the third most expensive based on price data [1, 2, 3, 4]. However, this ranking does not undermine the concept behind the pricing [4].
As of now, the game remains a limited social experiment with minimal player interaction. No further updates or expansions have been announced.
