The value story
Across all 39 discounts in the 5 years tracked, the median cut is 60 percent, about 7 weeks apart. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended 8 days ago.
Against its own genre it lands in the top 37 percent on value. It is pricier than 63 percent of its genre. Tcheco in the Castle of Lucio ($0.99, scores 79) outscores it, and so does HAAK ($17.99, scores 67). Both sit among its closest neighbours.

What players say
Overview I just finished Beholgar. It's an awesome but pretty tough retro metroidvania. The movement and how you progress through the game feel a lot like Castlevania. It's super linear and short, but packed full of stuff and enemies. The platforming is fun, though it can be really punishing. Playtime and Achievements I got 6 out of 10 achievements in about 4 hours. If you're going for the platinum, plan on around...

It's a bit rough around the edges, but overall, a very enjoyable old school platformer. The music is great.
10/10 The most important feature of the game is screaming "Beholgar!" as loud as you can whenever you do anything cool in the game.
