Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 0.29/day in the week to Aug 18 → 0/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 26 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 7 places towards #1, and the 2,400 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

Reviews
Alwa’s Legacy is a fantastic evolution of the original - bigger, prettier, and just as cleverly designed. Building on Alwa’s Awakening, this sequel/reboot upgrades the presentation to a gorgeous 16-bit style, bringing the world to life with richer detail while keeping that classic retro charm intact. The gameplay remains the real star, with thoughtful puzzles, rewarding exploration, and a progression system that encourages creative use of your abilities. It’s a true MetroidVania at heart, and it nails that satisfying loop of discovery and growth. That said, it’s not without a small frustration - certain areas can lock you in with barriers or drops that prevent backtracking until you complete that section. It’s not a dealbreaker, but it can be annoying if you want to step away, regroup, or explore elsewhere before pushing forward. Still, that’s a minor gripe in an otherwise excellent experience. Alwa’s Legacy is a beautifully crafted, smartly designed game that feels like a love letter to classic 16-bit adventures while standing confidently on its own.
I actually really like this. Playing this on handheld ROG Ally. It's a puzzle platformer, which balances between platforming, fighting and puzzles. Cute, colorful graphics and chiptune soundtrack. I like it that you can explore it quite freely. In metroidvania style, you get spells such as blocks and bubbles that let you traverse to new places. They're a bit more creative than basic double jump, air dash, etc. One of my favorite metroidvanias.

Juego sencillo pero con muy buenas ideas. No necesitas haber jugado Alwa's Awakening, pero de haberlo hecho, te sorprenderá el salto gráfico y jugable para bien. Recomendado.

超喜欢!续作相比第一部像素画面细节全面优化,场景光影、角色特效都精致了不少,还新增人物技能,丰富度翻倍。 最喜欢的还是制作组超贴心的人性化设计,自带多种辅助功能,难度档位自由可调,硬核玩家和只想安心逛图探索的人都能拥有绝佳的游玩体验,全程不会卡关受挫。 两部全部通关,真的意犹未尽,真心期待制作组能继续推出第三部!满分推荐!
何か迷子になりまくったので導線か自分の頭が悪いかどちらか 自分の身体能力ではなく、魔法力があがって行ける所が増えるメトロイドヴァニア まあ普通に楽しんだ
Vraiment très cool. J'ai passé un bon moment avec.
Very fun little Metroidvania gem that's not too easy nor too difficult. Nice music and beautiful pixelart make for a really enjoyable time. The magic system with different spells was a very neat idea and gave opportunities to creatively solve puzzles, reach far off ledges (try spawning a block just before you reach they height of your jump) and combat. I had a few minor glitches (frozen sprites, glitching down ladders or climbing on the spot that were fixed by simply jumping or dropping off) and some wonky hitboxes but nothing too drastic.
