The value story

The value story

It has been discounted 90 times in the 14 years tracked here. The median cut across all of them is 85 percent, about 6 weeks apart. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended about 2 weeks ago.

It is cheaper than 64 percent of its genre, and less well reviewed than 95 percent. Gauntlet™ Slayer Edition ($19.99, scores 60) outscores it, and so does FORCED: Slightly Better Edition ($14.99, scores 36). Both sit among its closest neighbours.

What players say

This game has One HUGE positive point going for it LOCAL SHARED SCREEN CO-OP! Other than that, it is a simple, but well done DIABLO 1 clone, and fun for what it is: a full COOP semi-retro ARPG playthrough.

The game has a decent hack-and-slash foundation, but it never really does anything memorable with it. Combat gets repetitive pretty quickly, and the environments all start blending together after a while. Co-op makes it a bit more fun, but solo play feels grindy and forgettable. Not terrible, just one of those games you uninstall and never think about again.
