What drives the score
How to read this
Every input gets a grade, S to D, read from the buyer's side. The score is multiplicative, so an input only counts as raising when it sits near the top of its own scale. Anything with real room left is holding the score back, because that room is the gap to 100. ▲ marks a lift, ▼ a drag or a dock, ? an input we do not have, • a fact this genre's score does not use. The exact weights stay secret.
The value story
It has never been cheaper than $3.99. That was June 2025. 49 discounts in the 11 years on record. They run about 66 percent off, roughly 5 weeks apart. Today's $4.99 at 75 percent off still sits 25 percent above the floor, so a deeper cut exists in its history.
Take the discount away and it is a 68. With it, 75.
Against its own genre it lands in the top 2 percent on value. It is pricier than 89 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 89 percent. Among the games that feel like it, UnderMine ($19.99, scores 76) beats it on value, while it beats Evoland ($2.49, scores 54).
This site sampled 294 of its Steam-purchase reviews; none were written by buyers who refunded it, sampled from reviews written March 2020 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 64 percent of the 107 reviews written there were positive, against 87 percent overall, and those are 6 percent of everything written about it.
It carries Valve's Deck Verified rating, which is the one that means it just works.

What players say
Evoland 2 is super fun and a genuinely very enjoyable game. Was a breath of fresh air and I couldn't see the time pass! If you're like me and had a mixed opinion about the first game, don't hesitate and play this one, it's so much better!
Evoland 2 is filled to the brim with references to many-many old RPGs If you can understand those references than it is a deeply nostalgic and bittersweet trip down a memory line. If you cant than it is a very mediocre old-school RPG Ether 7/10 or 4/10
Genuinely does not hold up to the original Evoland-- it's like if Chrono Trigger At Home came in lead packaging that you only notice to be a health hazard after eating half the bag. To comment directly on the game's problems: 1. The game cannot go five minutes without referencing some other property from gaming pop culture, kneecapping any worldbuilding that could have been established in an experience that is...
Player reviews from Steam: the most helpful all-time, plus the newest that clear the same quality bar, with the hours each player had put in when they wrote it. The mix of Recommended and Not recommended follows the game's Steam ratio. Rotates daily. Opinions are theirs.

Evoland 2 scores 75/100 on the BANG Score (worth it). The BANG Score rates what a game is worth for the money. Via Steam BANGERS. https://steambangers.com/game/359310/evoland-2The BANG Score is one number for value, 0 to 100: price against how it reviews and how long it was built to be. It answers the money question and stops there; whether the game is for you is still your call.
Reviews set the ceiling and price moves you inside it, so a cheap game that reviews badly cannot climb. Ratings from few reviewers are shrunk toward the middle, so 100 percent from nine people does not outrank 96 percent from ninety thousand. Length comes from HowLongToBeat where it can be matched, measured against a per-genre floor so a five-hour narrative game is judged against other narrative games rather than against a sixty-hour RPG. Where no verified length exists the score says so and carries a dock, because the biggest input is then a guess. The full method, including where it is weak → Steam reviews as of Sep 23, price as of Sep 24.
