The value story

June 2025 is where it bottomed out, at $3.19. Its cuts run 30 percent off as a rule. There have been 7 in the 2 years tracked, about 13 weeks apart.

On value it sits in the top 21 percent of its genre. It is cheaper than 71 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 97 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Kingdom Come: Deliverance II ($23.99, scores 90) beats it on value, while it beats Trek to Yomi ($19.99, scores 25).

This site sampled 351 of its Steam-purchase reviews; 5 were written by buyers who refunded it, sampled from reviews written March 2025 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 97 percent of the 1,440 reviews written there were positive, against 97 percent overall, and those are 75 percent of everything written about it.

Finishing takes 1.4 hours; clearing it takes 6, which is 4.3 times the campaign.

Valve rates it Steam Deck Verified, and at 1.4 hours it is short enough to finish on one.

What players say

A very historically accurate story. It is a fun a simple game, very far away from another Yasuke history produced by a bad company. Upon the beautiful view of lake Suwa, I remembered my journey to Japan and Fuji-san and I shed a tear. I want to go back, and this game was a nice substitute. I am very thankfull to the developpers.
