Minimum on the Steam store: 2 GB of memory, 502 MB of storage. Windows only.

A light-hearted turn-based RPG, heavily inspired by old 2D classics. You will battle through waves of cute enemies, grow your characters, explore a diverse world, solve puzzles, and of course, save the world. (Just updated to version 3!)

The value story

It has never been cheaper than $2.99. That was April 2016. Its cuts run 70 percent off as a rule. There have been 53 in the 13 years tracked, about 12 weeks apart.

Against its own genre it lands in the top 1 percent on value. It is pricier than 78 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 99 percent. Among the games closest to it, Knights of Pen and Paper 2 ($7.99, scores 72) and Dragon Cliff ($9.99, scores 77) both come in lower.

$26.16 is where it would stop being a BANGER. It is priced at $14.99.

Steam's global achievement data puts about 4 percent of players at this game's ending achievement. On a 19.5-hour game, the hours short of it still count in its price per hour. Of the 320 Steam-purchase reviews this site sampled, none come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written April 2020 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 83 percent of the 125 reviews written there were positive, against 97 percent overall, and those are 4 percent of everything written about it.

The main story runs 19.5 hours. Doing everything runs 43, 2.2 times as long.

The drop-off

Steam counts fewer than one in ten of its players at the ending achievement. On a 19.5-hour game, that's a lot you pay for and may never use. Steam global achievements

What players say

Childhood game I loved playing EBF 3 and now I loved playing EBF 4. The dev really cooked with this game. I also played 5!

A long long time ago, when EBF4 came to the flash game universe and when I finished it, I felt realy sad, because it felt like the culmination of everything the Matt had done and it felt like a fitting end to the story that had lasted so long. As all good flash franchises, it needed a proper end. And to me, EBF4 was that proper end. EBF3 practically promised more adventure after defeating the big bad. But, here, you...

Replayed this years later and it's like rewatching an old anime you loved when you were a teen. Makes you nostalgic as hell but man did the humour age like milk. Plus it doesn't really have much of a story, so if you're not a fan of its turn-based battle aspect there's barely any reason to play this.
