Minimum on the Steam store: 4 GB of memory, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660, 5 GB of storage. Windows only.

Hell Pie is an obscene 3D platformer that takes bad taste to the next level! Hell Pie sees you grab the horns of Nate, the ‘Demon of Bad Taste’. He is given the honorable task of gathering the disgusting ingredients for Satan’s infamous birthday pie!

The value story

September 2026 is where it bottomed out, at $2.49. 41 discounts in the 4 years on record. They run about 77 percent off, roughly 5 weeks apart.

Against its own genre it lands in the top 8 percent on value. It is pricier than 96 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 95 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Tinykin ($24.99, scores 64) beats it on value, while it beats Pumpkin Jack ($29.99, scores 53).

78 from critics against 89 percent from players, and the player number comes from people who own the game.

4 of the 394 Steam-purchase reviews sampled here come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written July 2022 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 83 percent of the 151 reviews written there were positive, against 89 percent overall, and those are 14 percent of everything written about it.

At 8.3 hours it is a handheld-sized game, and Valve rates it Deck Verified.

What players say

Take this thumbs down with a grain of salt, I'm not a big classic 3D platformer enjoyer I guess. On paper this should be great for me. Constant collecting, exploration, secrets, a skill tree, different locations. The amount of content is hard to even fathom, I only cleared a few areas and it's been hours. Plus I even missed most of the hidden stuff (which doesn't really help, I don't wish to revisit the levels...

Meh game. Grappling feels fun but that's about it. Stupid humor, burp fart poop and vomit, real high brow stuff. Crappy gimmicky bosses that are just annoying, especially when they use forced perspectives that make movement annoying and wonky (oh my hit didn't register against the fly because of forced perspective? oh the fly knocked me off the platform into the acid? oh you cant get out of the acid? dead). Boring...

A had a lot of fun with this game. It's a very solid platformer with interesting and fun mechanics. The humor is a bit underwhelming and juvenile but overal I really enjoyed myself.
