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

Holding it back
Reviews85% positive
Gates the score. Weak reviews cap it, and nothing reaches BANGER without strong ones
Reach350K+ owners
How many own it and play it, by SteamSpy's estimates (an old snapshot), the biggest driver for a game with no ending
For context
Value$3.57/hr
Price per hour of game. This genre scores on player counts instead
Length5.6 hours
Typical playtime on HowLongToBeat. Endless games score on players, so hours stay out of it
MonetizationNot known
No monetization record for this game, so nothing is assumed either way
Refunds18 of 700 reviews
Steam-purchase reviews sampled whose writer refunded the game. Nothing is docked
AI contentNone disclosed
From the developer's own Steam disclosure. No disclosure is not proof of none, so it does not move the score

The value story

It has never been cheaper than $9.99. That was November 2025. 30 discounts in the 3 years on record. They run about 40 percent off, roughly 4 weeks apart. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended about 3 weeks ago.

Value puts it in the top 35 percent of the games it competes with. It is pricier than 76 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 61 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Gordian Quest ($19.99, scores 70) beats it on value, while it beats Tales & Tactics ($17.99, scores 46).

Of the 700 Steam-purchase reviews this site sampled, 18 come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written January 2024 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 63 percent of the 223 reviews written there were positive, against 85 percent overall, and those are 8 percent of everything written about it.

HowLongToBeat players log 5.6 hours as a typical playtime, and completionists log 30, 5.4 times as much.

What players say

This is my go to game when I am burnt out on everything else. Seems like a lot to learn but it's really all common sense synergies.

Bought on sale ($10) and I would say the game is at least worth that. It's pretty fun, but too easy in a way that lowers replayability. I've done at least 10 runs (a few on the hardest difficulty) and have not come close to losing. The balancing in the late game is a bit off I think because it's so easy to reroll into a perfect build for whichever characters you end up picking. I usually have nearly all characters...

If you want something more chill than the other PvP auto chess games, this is for you. Also incredibly replayable! Roughly 150 hours into it and still have the feeling i can find cool item-hero combinations. The Reborn feature added also an entire new depth to it. The ability to create custom games with custom rules is also just great. The achievements were also really fun to do and not a dumb "grind that for 1000...
