Age of Barbarian Ex is an action hack 'n 'slash game inspired to 80s, fantasy and sword-and-sorcery genre. Muscular barbarians, scantily clad girls, hordes of bloodthirsty monsters, a lot of gore, a pretty epic story and an addictive soundtrack! What's best in life?

The value story
It has never been cheaper than $6.49. That was October 2019. Its cuts run 50 percent off as a rule. There have been 95 in the 10 years tracked, about 5 weeks apart. Today's $6.49 at 50 percent off matches the lowest price in the record.
At full price it scores 44. The current cut is what makes it a 51.
Against its own genre it lands in the top 17 percent on value. It is pricier than 69 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 68 percent. Among the games that feel like it, 嗜血印 Bloody Spell ($24.99, scores 74) beats it on value, while it beats Fresh Body ($9.99, scores 36).
Of the 383 Steam-purchase reviews this site sampled, 1 comes from a buyer who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written March 2020 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 56 percent of the 203 reviews written there were positive, against 78 percent overall, and those are 23 percent of everything written about it.
Finishing takes 6.2 hours; clearing it takes 25, which is 4.0 times the campaign.

What players say
This is a fantastic game, paying tribute to one of Fantasy's most beloved genres: Sword and Sorcery! A genre that unfortunately does not have enough media to enjoy! If you love Conan the Barbarian, the classic fantasy epics of the late 70s and 80s, Weapon Lord, or any other Sword and Sorcery novel, movie, TV show, etc... Do yourself a favor and play this!
Its kinda frustrating at times and the dragon can stuff it forever but if you're a lover of weirder and more out-there games that allow you to genitally mutilate your enemies while playing as an old-school sword and sandal barbarian hero/heroine then give it a shot. I appreciate the pulp feel to it, something of a lost art so I find.
Character passes through ledges without grabbing on and can not continue game. Wont be buying any other games from this company if this one is not fixed.
