What drives the score

How to read this

The value story

It has never been cheaper than $12.15. That was October 2026. Its cuts run 20 percent off as a rule. There have been 17 in the 2 years tracked, about 6 weeks apart. Today's $12.15 at 36 percent off matches the lowest price in the record.

It is pricier than 73 percent of its genre. Among the games that feel like it, Die in the Dungeon ($14.99, scores 75) beats it on value, while it beats Deck of Ashes ($19.99, scores 28).

This site sampled 471 of its Steam-purchase reviews; 3 were written by buyers who refunded it, sampled from reviews written September 2024 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 74 percent of the 112 reviews written there were positive, against 81 percent overall, and those are 13 percent of everything written about it.
