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

What we assumed
  • How long it takes to beat isn't in our data. We scored it as a typical RPG game (about 8 hours) and docked the score for the missing length.

The value story

The lowest price on record is $13.99, set in June 2026. In 89 days of price history it has never once been discounted.

It is pricier than 70 percent of its genre, and less well reviewed than 99 percent. On the same math Guild Quest (free, scores 14) and xiuzhen idle ($5.99, scores 48) are the better buys, and they are the games it most resembles.

This site sampled 800 of its Steam-purchase reviews; 7 were written by buyers who refunded it, sampled from reviews written April 2022 to February 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 25 percent of the 1,792 reviews written there were positive, against 35 percent overall, and those are 48 percent of everything written about it.

The drop-off

90% start to 2% 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

No data upstream: critic score (Metacritic).
