The value story
The lowest price on record is $17.49, set in June 2026. 24 discounts in the 3 years on record. They run about 33 percent off, roughly 6 weeks apart.
On value it sits in the top 4 percent of its genre. It is pricier than 96 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 92 percent. Among the games that feel like it, FINAL FANTASY V ($10.79, scores 79) beats it on value, while it beats FINAL FANTASY IV ($10.79, scores 63).
Players rate it 89 percent positive over its lifetime, but the last 30 days run 76 percent. Something recent has soured the room. 10 of the 800 Steam-purchase reviews sampled here come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written October 2024 to September 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 70 percent of the 514 reviews written there were positive, against 89 percent overall, and those are 4 percent of everything written about it.
It carries Valve's Deck Verified rating, which is the one that means it just works.

What players say
I dont recommend it because for coop it switches the character uoure controlling mid combat non stop. Very off-putting for coop.
writing leaves alot to be desired. they constantly reach for the lowest hanging fruit with naming and dialog.
Perfekt for me and the kids, 6 and 13(the first rpg for them), coop you share all characters and do attacks and block togheter, if all do a perfekt you get a bonus kids like that. Biggest problem where to find game like this that we can play after this!
