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
  • Steam lists in-app purchases but we have no detail on them. Small caution applied.

The value story

It has never been cheaper than $1.99. That was March 2026. It has been discounted 11 times in the 2 years tracked here, typically at 50 percent off, with about 7 weeks between sales.

It is pricier than 98 percent of its genre, and less well reviewed than 99 percent. On the same math The Forever Winter ($19.49, scores 13) and M.A.R.S. (free, scores 12) are the better buys, and they are the games it most resembles.

This site sampled 699 of its Steam-purchase reviews; 5 were written by buyers who refunded it, sampled from reviews written March 2026 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 23 percent of the 310 reviews written there were positive, against 41 percent overall, and those are 9 percent of everything written about it.

HowLongToBeat players log 31.9 hours as a typical playtime, and completionists log 350, 11 times as much.

This could be fun, but it's very greedy in its grind. It's aiming too much at squeezing money or at least time out of people. I'm at the point where I am forced to use high rarity mechs because the enemies are much stronger and more numerous than weaker mechs can handle. You started out with north side of the map where weak mechs did alright. Then came southern part of the map where tougher variants were introduced...

Truly, a game for no one. And yet I can't stop playing. Synduality is a PvPvE mech extraction shooter. You got into a round, loot, do quests, and extract. If you die, you lose all the stuff you had on you. Standard fare, but the game also has a lot of really cool and unique ideas. PvP is allowed, but punished by marking you as a player killer, and if you do it too much, you get a completely different questline as...
