Reviews95% positive
Gates the score. Weak reviews cap it, and nothing reaches BANGER without strong ones
MonetizationNone
Checked: no in-game purchases or loot boxes. That earns a small credit unless Steam lists in-app purchases

The value story

June 2025 is where it bottomed out, at $12.49. Its cuts run 25 percent off as a rule. There have been 64 in the 6 years tracked, about 5 weeks apart.

On value it sits in the top 3 percent of its genre. It is pricier than 94 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 95 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Risk of Rain 2 ($24.99, scores 88) beats it on value, while it beats Gunfire Reborn ($19.99, scores 84).

Critics scored it 85. Players sit 10 points higher at 95 percent, which usually means a game that plays better than it reviews.

This site sampled 800 of its Steam-purchase reviews; 17 were written by buyers who refunded it, sampled from reviews written January 2024 to September 2026. That is fewer refunded reviewers than 7 in 10 paid games this site has sampled to the same depth, and among the 698 games in its genre sampled this deeply, 539 have a larger share. Inside the two-hour refund window, 84 percent of the 1,334 reviews written there were positive, against 95 percent overall, and those are 7 percent of everything written about it.

HowLongToBeat players log 9.8 hours as a typical playtime, and completionists log 43, 4.4 times as much.

Roboquest is an incredibly fun fast-paced FPS that combines roguelite progression with satisfying gunplay and tons of replayability. The movement is quick, the weapons feel great, and every run gives you another reason to jump back in. 🎮 Gameplay - 10/10 Fast, responsive, and incredibly addictive. The game rewards aggressive movement, good aim, and learning from each run. 🔫 Gunplay - 10/10 The weapons feel...

Awesome game. Very fast paced and challenging if you want it to be. Has high replayability and makes you want to keep trying. Finding a "god gun" is a dopamine fest. Only complaint is it feels like out of all the weapons there are (There are a lot), only a few are good from the start and don't need serious upgrades to work well.

Fun time. Guns feel great, and there's surprisingly more to discover than you'd think. Easy recommend for a FPS roguelite.
