135 discounts in the 13 years on record, a median of 85 percent off across all of them, roughly 5 weeks apart. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended about 3 weeks ago.

Against its own genre its score lands in the top 45 percent. It is pricier than 62 percent of its genre. Finding Paradise ($9.99, scores 89) outscores it, and so does Grimm's Hollow (free, scores 93). Both sit among its closest neighbours.

What players say

A Hidden Gem for Classic RPG Fans Millennium - A New Hope is such a pleasant surprise. The characters are written with real heart, each with their own story and personality that kept me invested from start to finish. The world feels alive, and the soundtrack really adds to the emotional beats of the game. You can tell the creator poured love and care into every detail, from the story to the small side quests.
