The value story
It has never been cheaper than $17.99. That was May 2026. 18 discounts in the 2 years on record. They run about 50 percent off, roughly 4 weeks apart. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended about 4 weeks ago.
Against its own genre it lands in the top 39 percent on value. It is pricier than 92 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 79 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Blade and Sorcery ($29.99, scores 97) beats it on value, while it beats Grimlord ($29.99, scores 39).
This site sampled 366 of its Steam-purchase reviews; 18 were written by buyers who refunded it, sampled from reviews written January 2025 to August 2026. That is more refunded reviewers than 9 in 10 paid games this site has sampled to the same depth, and among the 1,071 games in its genre sampled this deeply, 41 have a larger share. The typical game sits near 5 in 1,000, so the score docks it. 3 of the 18 refunded reviewers were past Valve's two-hour window when they wrote the review. Inside the two-hour refund window, 72 percent of the 141 reviews written there were positive, against 91 percent overall, and those are 21 percent of everything written about it.
