Against its own genre it lands in the top 21 percent on value. It is pricier than 71 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 81 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Rampage Knights ($12.99, scores 78) beats it on value, while it beats 30XX ($19.99, scores 72).

Very similar to dead cells in how the combat feels and various mechanics. Lots of content here if you keep working on the various alert levels. I hope this developer continues creating games.
