What drives the score

How to read this

Grades run S to D, read from the buyer's side. ▲ marks a lift, ▼ a drag or a dock, ? an input we do not have, • a fact this genre's score does not use. How the grades work

Gates the score. Weak reviews cap it, and nothing reaches BANGER without strong ones
Refunds42 of 800 reviews
Well above the typical game's share of reviews from refunded buyers, so the score takes a small dock

The value story

It has never been cheaper than $19.79. That was September 2026. It has been discounted 22 times in the 3 years tracked here, typically at 50 percent off, with about 6 weeks between sales.

It is pricier than 99 percent of its genre, and less well reviewed than 93 percent. The games it most resembles do better on the same math. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder's Revenge ($24.99, scores 64) and Ghost of Tsushima DIRECTOR'S CUT ($35.99, scores 79) both outscore it.

Players rate it 61 percent positive over its lifetime, and the last 30 days run 69 percent. It is aging into a better game than its average suggests. This site sampled 800 of its Steam-purchase reviews; 42 were written by buyers who refunded it, sampled from reviews written February 2024 to August 2026. That is more refunded reviewers than 9 in 10 paid games this site has sampled to the same depth, and among the 2,814 games in its genre sampled this deeply, 172 have a larger share. The typical game sits near 5 in 1,000, so the score docks it. 7 of the 42 refunded reviewers were past Valve's two-hour window when they wrote the review. Inside the two-hour refund window, 32 percent of the 717 reviews written there were positive, against 61 percent overall, and those are 19 percent of everything written about it.

The main story runs 8.4 hours. Doing everything runs 30, 3.6 times as long.

The drop-off

95% start to 4% rarest
050100rarestfirst achievement

No achievement in this game marks the ending, so there is no finish rate. The curve runs from the most-unlocked achievement to the rarest, and its shape is where players stop. Steam global achievements

What players say

Dont play this in 2026, Imagine trying to play ranked and having your game crash on 60% of matches when you hit rematch. Then you get docked and a badge deeming you as a 'Disconnection hazard' Check my specs, NO WAY a game with this many updates cant even handle the rematch button. I've seen it on both sides too, I hit rematch start to load in and the opponent DC at the exact time, If its not you DCing it's them.

As a Naruto fan i really feel sad whenever i try to play this thing called "game", the game is absolutely trash, optimization is really bad and online section is totally broken. I played for 8 hours yet I couldn't play even one match on good conditions. There's always have lags, troubleshoots, crash problems and more. The game constantly crashes for no reason and game punishes me as if I quit. Game is totally...
