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$2.32/hr
Price per hour of game. This genre scores on player counts instead
Length4.3 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

Steam-purchase reviews sampled whose writer refunded the game. Nothing is docked

The value story

The lowest price on record is $2.49, set in June 2024. It has been discounted 44 times in the 7 years tracked here, typically at 60 percent off, with about 7 weeks between sales.

It is cheaper than 60 percent of its genre, and less well reviewed than 72 percent. On the same math Distant Space ($0.99, scores 58) and Downwell ($2.99, scores 88) are the better buys, and they are the games it most resembles.

7 of the 298 Steam-purchase reviews sampled here come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written July 2024 to August 2026. That is more refunded reviewers than 8 in 10 paid games this site has sampled to the same depth, and among the 698 games in its genre sampled this deeply, 41 have a larger share. Inside the two-hour refund window, 52 percent of the 987 reviews written there were positive, against 74 percent overall, and those are 29 percent of everything written about it.

HowLongToBeat players log 4.3 hours as a typical playtime, and completionists log 34, 7.9 times as much.

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

big fan of enter the gungeon. i really like the game and think it is criminally underrated
NKNeptuneRecommendedafter 9.7h1 found this helpfulRead on Steam
If you like the original game, this is a good place to get some more milage out of the Gungeon universe. It has alot of the same charm as the original in the sprites and little secrets you can find. For the sake of constructive criticism: The melee weapons and Quad Laser are very impractical in a platformer because you have to be standing on a nearby ledge to land an attack. If anything, you should be able to attack...
