The value story

It has never been cheaper than $5.99. That was June 2026. 65 discounts in the 8 years on record. They run about 50 percent off, roughly 6 weeks apart.

Value puts it in the top 32 percent of the games it competes with. It is pricier than 95 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 77 percent. Moss VR ($19.99, scores 57) outscores it, and so does Kena: Bridge of Spirits ($19.99, scores 71). Both sit among its closest neighbours.

11 of the 642 Steam-purchase reviews sampled here come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written March 2020 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 67 percent of the 574 reviews written there were positive, against 81 percent overall, and those are 23 percent of everything written about it.

7.3 hours to finish it, 19 to exhaust it. The completionist tail is 2.5 times the campaign.

At 7.3 hours it is a handheld-sized game, and Valve rates it Deck Verified.

Overall: Entertaining, with some periods of frustration. Details: - Scratches the "climb several massive bosses to defeat them" that Shadow of the Colossus found many years ago. - Some design decisions lead to frustration. In particular, it can be tedious to identify the locations of the various boss weakpoints, and one boss (the Thrall) combines long mandatory jumps with unpredictable movement, leading to frequent...
