The value story
It has never been cheaper than $6.24. That was April 2026. It has been discounted 43 times in the 5 years tracked here, typically at 60 percent off, with about 6 weeks between sales.
Against its own genre it lands in the top 4 percent on value. It is pricier than 92 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 95 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Torchlight II ($3.99, scores 88) beats it on value, while it beats Victor Vran ARPG ($19.99, scores 70).
Of the 795 Steam-purchase reviews this site sampled, 5 come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written January 2022 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 72 percent of the 557 reviews written there were positive, against 91 percent overall, and those are 10 percent of everything written about it.

What players say
Simply put, a lot of fun. Really executes the premisse well, you can tell there was passion behind it.
A really creative and interesting take on a 2D action RPG. The game has lots of customization options and engaging systems to encourage the player to explore different combinations. The art style is fun and the dialogue is whimsical. This game is definitely worth a try. I feel motivated to see all of the forms!
