Fantasy and synthwave collide in this physically active VR sword fighting game. Grow stronger as you battle through an awesome neon environment and strike down magic-infused monstrosities in this hack-and-slash roguelite. Fight. Fall. Rise Again.

The value story

September 2025 is where it bottomed out, at $11.24. 58 discounts in the 7 years on record. They run about 44 percent off, roughly 5 weeks apart.

Value puts it in the top 10 percent of the games it competes with. It is pricier than 94 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 90 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Blade and Sorcery ($29.99, scores 97) beats it on value, while it beats Battle Talent ($19.99, scores 43).

12 of the 435 Steam-purchase reviews sampled here come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written March 2020 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 91 percent of the 1,199 reviews written there were positive, against 94 percent overall, and those are 42 percent of everything written about it.

What players say

10/10 Dog beating simulator. And this might be the only swords game where spaming attacks doesn't feel cheesy (unless you are taking breaks during battle (like a loser.))
MK_DOCKRecommendedafter 3.5hMay 2026Read on Steam
One of the best VR games I have played, this should be a classic, up there with Beat Saber. Really fun gameplay loop, engaging combat that you actually get better at the more you play, and a hell of a cardio workout
a_dedicated_duckRecommendedafter 6.3hMay 2026Read on Steam
One of the best VR fighting games, thanks to its exceptionally well designed movement system. It's a shame there will probably never be a sequel or a DLC that could expand the feature set even further. I'd buy it instantly without hesitation.
