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

Holding it back
Reviews67% positive
Gates the score. Weak reviews cap it, and nothing reaches BANGER without strong ones
Reach35K+ owners
How many own it and play it, by SteamSpy's estimates (an old snapshot), the biggest driver for a game with no ending
For context
Value$3.45/hr
Price per hour of game. This genre scores on player counts instead
Length5.8 hours
Typical playtime on HowLongToBeat. Endless games score on players, so hours stay out of it
MonetizationNot known
No monetization record for this game, so nothing is assumed either way
Refunds4 of 520 reviews
Steam-purchase reviews sampled whose writer refunded the game. Nothing is docked
AI contentNone disclosed
From the developer's own Steam disclosure. No disclosure is not proof of none, so it does not move the score

The value story

The lowest price on record is $3.99, set in June 2026. It has been discounted 59 times in the 5 years tracked here, typically at 50 percent off, with about 5 weeks between sales. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended about 4 weeks ago.

It is pricier than 80 percent of its genre, and less well reviewed than 88 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Garden of Witches ($18.99, scores 73) beats it on value, while it beats Wizard of Legend 2 ($24.99, scores 0).

This site sampled 520 of its Steam-purchase reviews; 4 were written by buyers who refunded it, sampled from reviews written April 2021 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 55 percent of the 152 reviews written there were positive, against 67 percent overall, and those are 23 percent of everything written about it.

At 5.8 hours it is a handheld-sized game, and Valve rates it Deck Verified.

Its like a Pokemon game mixed with a rougelike but instead of Pokemon, you collect fury girls. Each girl has special powers that you can mix and match creating devistating combinations. Story is kinda meh. but it makes it up in the fun gameplay. Its one of those games that requires minimal brain power, where you can kick back and relax while grinding for other girls or different spell combinations, then realizing...

it's a great game but it's just been left to rot with lots of bugs and broken achievements that don't work. devs moved on to other projects to leave this to collect dust. last update was November 2024...
