What drives the score
How to read this
Every input gets a grade, S to D, read from the buyer's side. The score is multiplicative, so an input only counts as raising when it sits near the top of its own scale. Anything with real room left is holding the score back, because that room is the gap to 100. ▲ marks a lift, ▼ a drag or a dock, ? an input we do not have, • a fact this genre's score does not use. The exact weights stay secret.
The value story
It has never been cheaper than $2.99. That was April 2021. Its cuts run 80 percent off as a rule. There have been 75 in the 13 years tracked, about 6 weeks apart. Today it is at full price. The last sale was about 27 weeks ago, and on this game's rhythm the next one tends to arrive within 6 weeks.
On value it sits in the top 7 percent of its genre. It is pricier than 94 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 91 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Horizon Forbidden West™ Complete Edition ($59.99, scores 70) beats it on value, while it beats Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice ($29.99, scores 55).
70 from critics against 86 percent from players, and the player number comes from people who own the game.
This site sampled 610 of its Steam-purchase reviews; none were written by buyers who refunded it, sampled from reviews written March 2020 to September 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 58 percent of the 608 reviews written there were positive, against 86 percent overall, and those are 11 percent of everything written about it.
Finishing takes 9 hours; clearing it takes 20, which is 2.3 times the campaign.
At 9 hours it is a handheld-sized game, and Valve rates it Deck Verified.

All is super, except the controlls! Camera is moving automatically every second , VERY FRUSTRATING !!!
Is this game a bit rough around the edges? Yes. Do the loading screen transitions get a bit glitchy? Yes. Is the game perfect? No. But damn, do I absolutely love the pacing and flow of the story-telling of Enslaved. Not to mention some PHENOMINAL voice acting, with Andy Serkis crushing it as always. What you get with Enslaved is a fairly referenced cover version of "Journey to the West" in an Apocalyptic / Dystopic...
Player reviews from Steam: the most helpful all-time, plus the newest that clear the same quality bar, with the hours each player had put in when they wrote it. The mix of Recommended and Not recommended follows the game's Steam ratio. Rotates daily. Opinions are theirs.

ENSLAVED™: Odyssey to the West™ Premium Edition scores 58/100 on the BANG Score (fair value). The BANG Score rates what a game is worth for the money. Via Steam BANGERS. https://steambangers.com/game/245280/enslaved-odyssey-to-the-west-premium-editionThe BANG Score is one number for value, 0 to 100: price against how it reviews and how long it was built to be. It answers the money question and stops there; whether the game is for you is still your call.
Reviews set the ceiling and price moves you inside it, so a cheap game that reviews badly cannot climb. Ratings from few reviewers are shrunk toward the middle, so 100 percent from nine people does not outrank 96 percent from ninety thousand. Length comes from HowLongToBeat where it can be matched, measured against a per-genre floor so a five-hour narrative game is judged against other narrative games rather than against a sixty-hour RPG. Where no verified length exists the score says so and carries a dock, because the biggest input is then a guess. The full method, including where it is weak → Steam reviews as of Sep 16, price as of Sep 24.
