More about Breathedge

71 from critics against 81 percent from players, and the player number comes from people who own the game.

Steam's global achievement data puts about 9 percent of players at this game's ending achievement. On a 16.5-hour game, the hours short of it still count in its price per hour. Players rate it 81 percent positive over its lifetime, but the last 30 days run 70 percent. Something recent has soured the room. 14 of the 800 Steam-purchase reviews sampled here come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written October 2024 to October 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 55 percent of the 1,690 reviews written there were positive, against 81 percent overall, and those are 11 percent of everything written about it.

16.5 hours to finish it, 33 to exhaust it. The completionist tail is 2.0 times the campaign.

What players say

Extremely shallow systems, deeply unfunny, the base building is almost completely pointless, and the entire game is designed to be a time vampire and waste your time. Don't waste your time or money, even on heavy sale.

What a time wasting stupid ass game. I have enough at Chapter 4. This constant back and forth to the normandy all the time is soooo boring. Till Chapter 4 is was somehow "OKish". But after that the game is brutally wasting your time.

A fun little survival romp. Grab it for a deal and give it a try to get a feel for the sequal!
