The value story
June 2024 is where it bottomed out, at $2.99. It has been discounted 48 times in the 7 years tracked here, typically at 66 percent off, with about 7 weeks between sales.
Value puts it in the top 23 percent of the games it competes with. It is pricier than 62 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 75 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Slay the Spire ($24.99, scores 95) beats it on value, while it beats Iris and the Giant ($3.59, scores 64).
The press gave it 80; the people who bought it give it 89 percent. A 9-point gap in the buyer's favour.
Players rate it 89 percent positive over its lifetime, but the last 30 days run 77 percent. Something recent has soured the room. Of the 800 Steam-purchase reviews this site sampled, 11 come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written March 2022 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 76 percent of the 779 reviews written there were positive, against 89 percent overall, and those are 7 percent of everything written about it.

What players say
Neat idea but ultimately just unbalanced and poorly thought out execution. Everything that is wrong with 'everything is a rogue-lite' as a genre. A cool mechanic with little care or actual effort to make full use of it.
Lost ten times in a row as Witch in EP1, didn't even see the final boss once. Wasted an entire afternoon and didn't feel any sense of accomplishment. WTF? The difficulty is unreasonable. I am happy to leave a positive review if it's fixed.
Not for me. The vibe, the gameplay, really none of it is for me. Maybe it's cause I played slay the spire. Maybe it's cause it lacks anything memorable. Maybe it's cause it lacks anything unique. This game is like being served white rice at a restaurant with a glass of water. Are you going to tell your friends to go eat there?
