The value story

The lowest price on record is $4.99, set in June 2025. It has been discounted 32 times in the 3 years tracked here, typically at 60 percent off, with about 5 weeks between sales.

Value puts it in the top 10 percent of the games it competes with. It is pricier than 87 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 81 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Loop Hero ($14.99, scores 83) beats it on value, while it beats Swag and Sorcery ($12.99, scores 2).

Of the 800 Steam-purchase reviews this site sampled, 9 come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written August 2023 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 60 percent of the 177 reviews written there were positive, against 82 percent overall, and those are 5 percent of everything written about it.

Deck Verified, so no launch options and no controller remapping before it runs.

What players say

I love it. Replayed several times. But man.. Why can't you fix the Ruth bug? I wanted some Yoga sparring, and my 100% Trophy.. Great micromanage game where losing is more of an inconvenience than a punishment. I like to play this game when I'm frustrated in other games and just want to play something that keeps you in a nice flow. Edit: I took upon noticing they added an extra line to a certain unbeatable character...

Amazing humor, good art direction, fun gameplay. A real step up from the original. I am excited to see where they take this game next!

In late game the developers effectively take over your character and change him completely.
