The value story

November 2018 is where it bottomed out, at $2.99. 80 discounts in the 9 years on record. They run about 39 percent off, roughly 5 weeks apart. Past sales have already crossed the $5.61 BANGER line once.

On value it sits in the top 3 percent of its genre. It is pricier than 66 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 97 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Yume Nikki (free, scores 87) beats it on value, while it beats True Fear: Forsaken Souls Part 1 ($8.99, scores 70).

Steam's global achievement data puts 44 percent of players at this game's ending achievement. The median game this site can measure sits at 15. This site sampled 404 of its Steam-purchase reviews; none were written by buyers who refunded it, sampled from reviews written May 2020 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 82 percent of the 144 reviews written there were positive, against 95 percent overall, and those are 6 percent of everything written about it.

What players say

Absolutely legendery game that I can recommend even to those people who're usually scared to play horrors because of the jumpscares or high pressure. Here, Misao is a pure absurdic fun, like slasher horror movies, full of gore scenes and silly humor. That's exactly what you'll see here, my friend! Though it does have a great storytelling, too. It only disguises like a bloddy nonsense theater, but beyond the scene...

While I love the updated art of the new version, I wish they'd kept the concept of collecting Misao's actual body parts.
SchifaRecommendedafter 4.2h1 found this helpfulRead on Steam
This game is a short and fun game. It has some brutal game overs and scenes that isn't suitable for everyone, but you can pretty much save in most places when using the quicksave. It took me a bit under 2 hours to beat the game without playing the extra mode, and a bit more than 2 hours if you include the extra mode.
