The value story

Across all 27 discounts in the 3 years tracked, the median cut is 92 percent, about 5 weeks apart. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended 11 days ago.

Against its own genre it lands in the top 22 percent on value. It is pricier than 69 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 75 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Castle Crashers® ($14.99, scores 97) beats it on value, while it beats Scott Pilgrim vs. The World™: The Game – Complete Edition ($14.99, scores 30).

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

This is a great game and worth buying when discounted. It reminds me of Crash Bandicoot. I love the humor of the dialogue and narration and the visual design is nice. Combat's quite basic compared to other games, but it's a ton of fun. I do have some criticisms though - The menu is a little bit clunky and unintuitive. Sometimes you think the game is bugged but it actually not, it just wants you to do something...
