The value story
It has never been cheaper than $5.19. That was September 2024. Its cuts run 30 percent off as a rule. There have been 23 in the 5 years tracked, about 11 weeks apart.
Value puts it in the top 6 percent of the games it competes with. It is better reviewed than 85 percent of its genre. Among the games that feel like it, Xuan-Yuan Sword: The Scar of Sky ($4.99, scores 76) beats it on value, while it beats Immortals Fenyx Rising ($3.99, scores 34).
Of the 603 Steam-purchase reviews this site sampled, 2 come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written April 2021 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 68 percent of the 350 reviews written there were positive, against 84 percent overall, and those are 18 percent of everything written about it.
Finishing takes 2 hours; clearing it takes 79, which is 40 times the campaign.
It carries Valve's Deck Verified rating and runs 2 hours, about as long as a handheld game wants to be.

Short Review: The story is fine and holds up surprisingly well; the theme and plot holds together for the most part. *There is a theme to each entry of the series; this...
Treat this game like a interactive book. The gameplay maybe old school, but the story is best of the best. This is one of the best stories I've ever read/played. Words cannot express how much I love this game. It shaped my view on RPGs and my view on fantasy stories.
cant read the chinese in the game, it's all weird characters...wondering what happened?
