The value story

It has never been cheaper than $29.99. That was November 2025. Its cuts run 25 percent off as a rule. There have been 12 in the 2 years tracked, about 6 weeks apart. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended about 4 weeks ago. No sale on record has reached $12.97, the price it would take to be a BANGER.

Value puts it in the top 4 percent of the games it competes with. It is pricier than 98 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 97 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Thronefall ($7.79, scores 90) beats it on value, while it beats Creeper World 4 ($24.99, scores 57).

Steam's global achievement data puts about 7 percent of players at this game's ending achievement. On a 16.4-hour game, the hours short of it still count in its price per hour. This site sampled 448 of its Steam-purchase reviews; 8 were written by buyers who refunded it, sampled from reviews written July 2024 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 77 percent of the 198 reviews written there were positive, against 92 percent overall, and those are 11 percent of everything written about it.

The main story runs 16.4 hours. Doing everything runs 36, 2.2 times as long.

Deck Verified, so no launch options and no controller remapping before it runs.

What players say

Incredible art direction, mediocre storyline, nice narration, clunky gameplay and some very slow moments in game that are boring at best, but overall a nice title.

Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess - 10/10 🎮 An absolute gem from Capcom. The gameplay is so unique and addictive, mixing action, strategy, and tower-defense elements in a way that feels genuinely fresh. The music is fantastic and fits the game's atmosphere and Japanese-inspired setting perfectly. 🎶🔥 Big respect to Capcom for continuing to take risks and experiment with new ideas, especially with AA-sized games like...

An absolute joy of a game not just to look at, but to play. It gets challenging without feeling like you're being cheated. It has a surprising amount of replayability as well.
