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): 1.57/day in the week to Aug 8 → 2.14/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.

This has a really fun gameplay loop and it keeps getting better and better with every update. The last one that added in FSR made it run so much smoother on my PC. I'm excited to see where this goes once it comes out of early access. As is, I feel I've already got my money's worth.
God, I love this game. Yeah, it's janky. Yeah, it's incredibly unbalanced. Yeah, the steamdeck settings make it look like hot ass. Yeah, the pixel mode is a hilarious joke. But listen, you ride into battle astride a phantom train, and the ♥♥♥♥ you do from there only gets more badass. This is a Survivor-like where the combat actually feels good. It's blowing my freaking mind. The is the definition of a rough early access game. It needs content, more items, more skills, more options, more QoL features, and a few balance passes. But it's already very fun and very playable, especially on the Steam Deck. Where, yeah it looks like a butt, but it runs a solid frame rate even at maximum chaos. It's actually impressive.

Enjoyed the side scroller, didn't hesitate to buy this as soon as it went up. Best impulse buy on Steam ever. What's not to love about this game? Music slaps, the vibe is very deliberate, combat is fun as hell! The gameplay loop does well to keep that dopamine coming at a steady pace. I don't know what the team behind this put in this game but I can't stop playing it!
Switching between top down and third person is awesome! The graphics are pretty impressive. Seeing fire, ice, and poison effects on screen at once is very cool. Controls and camera can be clunky at times but overall this game is worth checking out.
a very fun game with awesome 3rd person camera option that i just love and excellent music
Great game, would've bought this game myself but a friend beat me to it. For an older PC this game runs fine with no major glitches that would take the fun out of the game. More Can be added but where the game is I can't complain.
This is a very nice game. Strange for a negative review to start like this right? I'll keep it short... For the love of God. Fix performance drops and revamp the entireity of it because right now? It does not work. Second, please don't abandon the game. Dark Light was an amazing game and I hope the same for Survivor. Thank you.
fun as hell and I really think this sets apart the other rogue-likes. I would really love to see this turned into even more of an RPG with different gear changing how your character looks and tackles the environments. I absolutely recommend this for both casual and hardcore players alike
Feels good but clunky, feels like content should last a decent amount of time even though there isn't a ton, and meta progression feels reasonable somehow
I've been liking it so far. Running 4k60 on ultra. Performance does hitch when there's a ton of enemies but it's not game breaking and I've been able to play through it till it levels out. Excited for upcoming updates and the engine upgrade.
