The value story

November 2024 is where it bottomed out, at $1.49. It has been discounted 54 times in the 10 years tracked here, typically at 50 percent off, with about 7 weeks between sales. Past sales have already crossed the $2.81 BANGER line 8 times.

Against its own genre it lands in the top 5 percent on value. It is pricier than 74 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 99 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Lethal League ($13.99, scores 75) beats it on value, while it beats Fraymakers ($19.99, scores 44).

Steam's global achievement data puts about 5 percent of players at this game's ending achievement. On a 1.1-hour game, the hours short of it still count in its price per hour. Of the 323 Steam-purchase reviews this site sampled, 1 comes from a buyer who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written May 2020 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 92 percent of the 340 reviews written there were positive, against 95 percent overall, and those are 37 percent of everything written about it.

Finishing takes 1.1 hours; clearing it takes 14, which is 13 times the campaign.

Steam counts fewer than one in ten of its players at the ending achievement. On a 1.1-hour game, that's a lot you pay for and may never use. Steam global achievements

What players say

An arcade classic available on Steam. If you love fighting games, this is a must-buy. The combat is fluid and easy to learn, and the system mechanics such as the T.O.P. system are welcoming to beginner players. Again, I personally regard this as SNK's magnum opus, and imo, this is an even better game than City of The Wolves. I love this game to death/10

"why would I play such a niche fighting game on a platform where it doesn't even have a playerbase" Because the gameplay is good enough that you wanna play Story Mode, that's why. The writing too, surprisingly. Brush up on the backstory online. Challenge the CPU. Get good enough to AAA rank your way to seeing character endings. A worthwhile journey in itself even if you never play against another human.
The SachmeisterRecommendedafter 6.7hJun 2026Read on Steam
Garou: Mark of the Wolves is a slick, confident evolution of Fatal Fury - and an underappreciated SNK classic. This was my first time playing it, and it absolutely lived up to the hype. Set after the original saga, it introduces a mostly new roster led by Rock Howard - son of the iconic supervillain Geese Howard - and the shift works brilliantly. The cast feels fresh, the presentation is sharp, and the gameplay is...
