More about Talisman: Digital Classic Edition

3 of the 800 Steam-purchase reviews sampled here come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written May 2020 to October 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 52 percent of the 354 reviews written there were positive, against 78 percent overall, and those are 6 percent of everything written about it. It sells extras on top of the sticker price (unlock); the score docks it lightly for that.

2.3 hours to finish it, 62 to exhaust it. The completionist tail is 27 times the campaign.
