The value story

Across all 23 discounts in the 2 years tracked, the median cut is 30 percent, about 5 weeks apart. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended 11 days ago.

On value it sits in the top 11 percent of its genre. It is pricier than 87 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 80 percent. The games it most resembles do better on the same math. Grimm's Hollow (free, scores 93) and Ikenfell ($19.99, scores 74) both outscore it.

Edit: I've been running in a circle for 3 hours looking for one npc to talk to with no clear direction as to where they are. It feels like a waste of time once you repeat the same battles against the same ennemies 40 times in the same environment.

Very cool art, a rocking soundtrack, and some fun characters and designs. You can tell a lot of love has been poured into this, but it does have a major wall that will block off many potential players. So far, however, Keylocker's combat just isn't for me.
