The value story

June 2026 is where it bottomed out, at $13.49. Its cuts run 40 percent off as a rule. There have been 22 in the 2 years tracked, about 5 weeks apart. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended about 3 weeks ago.

Value puts it in the top 15 percent of the games it competes with. It is pricier than 95 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 82 percent. Among the games that feel like it, The Last Flame ($19.99, scores 62) beats it on value, while it beats Chaos Reborn ($9.99, scores 32).

This site sampled 788 of its Steam-purchase reviews; 16 were written by buyers who refunded it, sampled from reviews written June 2024 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 71 percent of the 366 reviews written there were positive, against 81 percent overall, and those are 16 percent of everything written about it.

It carries Valve's Deck Verified rating, which is the one that means it just works.

While lacking the large maps of games such as Warhammer 3 instead it focuses on the strategy...

This one just didn't click with me. I loved the presentation, aside from a typo here and there. I like the idea of an auto-battler-meets-total-war. But when it got down to the battles, I just couldn't find the fun. And the AI armies seemed way over-tuned for what was supposed to be a "balanced" experience. For instance, I go to break a siege, having full reserves and a full garrison - but the enemy still has about...
