The value story

Across all 85 discounts in the 11 years tracked, the median cut is 84 percent, about 5 weeks apart. Today's $0.79 at 84 percent off still sits 61 percent above the floor, so a deeper cut exists in its history.

It is cheaper than 82 percent of its genre. Among the games that feel like it, UFO 50 ($24.99, scores 82) beats it on value, while it beats DemonCrawl ($14.99, scores 43).

The drop-off

24% start to 2% rarest
050100rarestfirst achievement

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

Story mode isn't so bad on the easiest difficulty, thanks to free keys that keep the run alive (waiting a minute for each one sucks, though). Every zone has some mechanic to it that keeps the experience interesting - beating the zones are the few highlight moments you get here. Once you beat the game, it's also possible to grind the final boss for a decent amount of soul stones, which help a ton with any future...

DungeonUp, developed by Clewcat Games and published by Plug In Digital, is a compact but surprisingly cerebral dungeon crawler that reframes familiar roguelike conventions through a lens of planning, foresight, and risk management. While it borrows visual and structural cues from classic dungeon adventures, DungeonUp distinguishes itself by slowing the pace and turning nearly every action into a calculated decision...
