The value story
The value story
It has been discounted 117 times in the 13 years tracked here. The median cut across all of them is 80 percent, about 5 weeks apart. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended about 10 weeks ago.
It is cheaper than 67 percent of its genre, and less well reviewed than 88 percent. Heroes of Hammerwatch ($14.99, scores 70) outscores it, and so does Children of Morta ($3.29, scores 73). Both sit among its closest neighbours.
More about Hero Siege
14 of the 800 Steam-purchase reviews sampled here come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written May 2026 to October 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 46 percent of the 3,667 reviews written there were positive, against 67 percent overall, and those are 10 percent of everything written about it. It sells extras on top of the sticker price (unlock); the score docks it lightly for that.

Addictive fast-paced ARPG which shamelessly copies several POE mechanics, which is of course for the better. Monetization even of the most common things like inventory, stash or market tabs drags the experience (or account balance) down, though DLCs/most of the characters are at this point free to play. Companion to pick bubble currency is huge QoL, on the other hand, in case you plan to play multiple (season)...
Before I say anything else, this is NOT a review bomb. I'm saying this purely as someone who has been playing ARPGs since Diablo 3. First of all, dear devs… what the hell is up with all these on-death effects?! 😂 Did you make an ARPG or a bullet hell game? And what's with the difficulty gap between Nightmare and Hell? Everything in Nightmare gets obliterated in a fraction of a second, but then you take the exact...
