What drives the score

Grades: S best, D weakest

S is the best grade and D the weakest, judged as a buyer. ▲ raises the score, ▼ lowers it, ? is an input we do not have, • is a fact this genre's score does not use. How the grades work

Raising the score
Reach3.5M+ owners
How many own it and play it, by SteamSpy's estimates (an old snapshot), the biggest driver for a game with no ending
MonetizationNone
Checked: no in-game purchases or loot boxes. That earns a small credit unless Steam lists in-app purchases
Holding it back
Reviews
Gates the score. Weak reviews cap it, and nothing reaches BANGER without strong ones
DRMThird-party DRM
Third-party copy protection, a small friction discount
For context
Refunds11 of 800 reviews
Steam-purchase reviews sampled whose writer refunded the game. Nothing is docked
AI contentNone disclosed
From the developer's own Steam disclosure. No disclosure is not proof of none, so it does not move the score

What players say

I would never hate this game and the time I spent on it. It's surprisingly so addicted.

We night then we reign. Nightreign is currently one of my top three favorites currently, with 360 hours at the moment I can't get enough of the game. I find it very addicting(you just gotta play enough to understand), and while there are only a select few bosses- you can bet your ass that no one round is the same. Yes, it can be frustrating at times with some of the randoms you get matched with(regular and in DoN)...

I've put in about a dozen or so hours. I know the game has a learning curve, but I'm not really having fun learning it.
