The value story

March 2026 is where it bottomed out, at $2.98. It has been discounted 20 times in the 2 years tracked here, typically at 66 percent off, with about 5 weeks between sales. Today's $2.98 at 77 percent off matches the lowest price in the record.

On value it sits in the top 44 percent of its genre. Among the games that feel like it, Vampire Hunters ($4.49, scores 68) beats it on value, while it beats Tower of Guns ($14.99, scores 53).

This site sampled 584 of its Steam-purchase reviews; 11 were written by buyers who refunded it, sampled from reviews written December 2024 to September 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 71 percent of the 366 reviews written there were positive, against 85 percent overall, and those are 20 percent of everything written about it.

HowLongToBeat players log 6.1 hours as a typical playtime, and completionists log 18, 3.0 times as much.

At 6.1 hours it is a handheld-sized game, and Valve rates it Deck Verified.

What players say

Shakin' my head. Too many people saying this game reminds them of DooM (or Quake. How.) when this game is obviously inspired by Blood (1997). The second character you get is a legally distinct Caleb. Maybe a little Hexen/Heretic. Maybe a little Diablo. I bought this game for $3.24. At that price, the game is a steal. It's not very deep strategically, but this entire genre isn't. It was made for people stoned out of...

For less than $5, this game gave me a solid 12 hours of turn-your-brain-off fun. Short, sweet, and didn't overstay its welcome. Highly recommend.
