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): 0.71/day in the week to Jul 24 → 1/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.

If you like games like Fire emblem, Dark Deity, and Fell Seal you'll like this one too. I was shocked to learn this was a solo project when I saw the end game credits. It has a few rough edges but I never had any crashes or corrupted saves. It could use several Qol type changes and maybe better writing in a few spots but that didn't make it any less fun. Less than 20 dollars (way less with the current sale) for over 50 hours of enjoyment is a great deal in my opinion. Looking forward to the sequel.
Nice tactics game. Progression of certain characters is motivating but the camp menu could have been optimized for ease of use. I found permadeath punishing as some enemy units may sneak through your defences and backtab your weakest units, if you are not painstaikingly checking on the features of every enemy. Other than that: I had a nice time.

One of the best tactical RPGs in recent years. Highly recommended!
I liked the game, but the dialogue in the last 2 chapters bugged out for me and the credits crashed. Everthing else was good though
çok iyi bir indie turnbased gamedi
I am thrilled to recommend this game for anyone who enjoys games in the tactics/strategy RPG space. It offers a great story in a genre that often lacks them. The mechanics reward not just one and done but repeat play throughs to experiment with a robust set of interesting and engaging build and squad choices. The highest difficulty offers a rewarding experience that never felt like a slog or RNG fishing expedition. As a fan of the Fire Emblems, FF Tactics, and so on, I truly cannot recommend this game highly enough. Play it!
I don't usually write reviews, however i was pleasantly surprised by this title. Its a good game, straight forward and damn good fun. Its grown on me the more I play it . I usually play games like escape from tarkov and Stalker so this was a new type of game and ive not been disappointed. I like its easy style and mix of story telling and turn based hex battles. I for one am looking forward to the next game in the series, well done.
One of the best games in this genre, there are a lot of refreshing mechanics and the story is fun and gives you impactful decisions. Fully recommend this game, at any price.
For $18 being full price? It's a damn fine game. Easy recommend.
