Holding it back
Reviews88% positive
Gates the score. Weak reviews cap it, and nothing reaches BANGER without strong ones
Reach150K+ owners
How many own it and play it, by SteamSpy's estimates (an old snapshot), the biggest driver for a game with no ending
For context
Value$2.30/hr
Price per hour of game. This genre scores on player counts instead
Length1.3 hours
Typical playtime on HowLongToBeat. Endless games score on players, so hours stay out of it
MonetizationNot known
No monetization record for this game, so nothing is assumed either way
Refunds4 of 393 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

The value story

It has never been cheaper than $1.49. That was June 2014. Its cuts run 34 percent off as a rule. There have been 42 in the 13 years tracked, about 15 weeks apart.

On value it sits in the top 29 percent of its genre. It is cheaper than 92 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 71 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Skul: The Hero Slayer ($19.99, scores 84) beats it on value, while it beats Magicite ($9.99, scores 65).

Of the 393 Steam-purchase reviews this site sampled, 4 come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written March 2020 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 78 percent of the 455 reviews written there were positive, against 88 percent overall, and those are 22 percent of everything written about it.

HowLongToBeat players log 1.3 hours as a typical playtime, and completionists log 8, 6.3 times as much.

The drop-off

No achievement in this game marks the ending, so there is no finish rate. The curve runs from the most-unlocked achievement to the rarest, and its shape is where players stop. Steam global achievements

What players say

I enjoyed this game, but have to echo the other reviews - it's extremely hard and unforgiving. I really like it though, nice artwork and full controller support, imaginative gameplay and mechanics. Music is nice too. It's an simple game to get into, but extremely difficult to master. For a low-price, Aussie indie title it's definately worth it.

This is the beginning of a legend. It is difficult, but you can progress while referencing other people's plays. A lot of replayability at a low price.

This game is charming and unforgiving. The same reasons someone wouldn't want to play it might be the same reasons someone would enjoy it. If you're not afraid of losing to get better, I would find this small game a steal.
