The value story

February 2021 is where it bottomed out, at $5.99. 65 discounts in the 10 years on record. They run about 50 percent off, roughly 7 weeks apart. Past sales have already crossed the $6.78 BANGER line 2 times.

On value it sits in the top 5 percent of its genre. It is pricier than 92 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 97 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Yes, Your Grace ($3.99, scores 78) beats it on value, while it beats Yes, Your Grace 2: Snowfall ($24.99, scores 30).

This site sampled 361 of its Steam-purchase reviews; 2 were written by buyers who refunded it, sampled from reviews written April 2020 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 73 percent of the 128 reviews written there were positive, against 93 percent overall, and those are 8 percent of everything written about it.

4.9 hours to finish it, 52 to exhaust it. The completionist tail is 11 times the campaign.

It carries Valve's Deck Verified rating and runs 4.9 hours, about as long as a handheld game wants to be.

I honestly just love these games and all the different endings that you can get. It is fun to build your stats up and see what ending you can get since everytime it is different!

I recommend this game, but only if you are unable to properly set up a way to play the original title. By no means is this a bad remake, but I find myself missing the charm of the old art style. It was a big part of what drew me to the game in the first place. The cheat shop is completely removed from this edition which sucks, I'm the type of person to want to mess around with hacking (you can use an engine with...
