What we assumed
  • How long it takes to beat isn't in our data. We scored it as a typical RPG game (about 8 hours) and docked the score for the missing length.

The value story

The lowest price on record is $7.49, set in July 2019. It has been discounted 37 times in the 11 years tracked here, typically at 25 percent off, with about 9 weeks between sales.

Against its own genre it lands in the top 5 percent on value. It is pricier than 69 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 99 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Paradise Killer ($19.99, scores 72) beats it on value, while it beats Telling Lies ($19.99, scores 9).

Steam's global achievement data puts 53 percent of players at this game's ending achievement. The median game this site can measure sits at 15. 1 of the 383 Steam-purchase reviews sampled here comes from a buyer who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written April 2020 to September 2026.

Deck Verified, so no launch options and no controller remapping before it runs.
