The value story

Across all 47 discounts in the 5 years tracked, the median cut is 40 percent, about 6 weeks apart. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended 11 days ago.

It is pricier than 77 percent of its genre, and less well reviewed than 72 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Dungeon Defenders ($14.99, scores 89) beats it on value, while it beats Game of Thrones Winter is Coming (free, scores 7).

What players say

This is a great game made with love. The story is phenomenal. The Creators have added excellent DLCs and updates are regular and helpful. It is incredibly fun to play with friends and the gameplay is exciting and fun. I hope in a Red Solstice 3 to continue the Story. I highly recommend this game!

it's a funny old bird tbf, looks like a twinstick, plays like... zombie extraction diablo, with guns and tanks. 7 players many classes and customising.
