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/day in the week to Aug 4 → 0/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 25 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 10 places towards #1, and the 2,413 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
Excellent Blood Inspired retro fantasy FPS. The guns feel great and the levels have that Build Engine feel, despite being on the GZD engine. The use of sector lighting makes this all feel particularly perfect. For a game made by a single developer and their mum, they should both be extremely proud of what they have achieved. Truly outstanding with the minor gripes being some of the cutscene frames are a bit rough, the voice acting could be a bit better (Developer has a thick accent) and there is a bit of a lack of variety in the enemy roster. Other than that, everything is just perfect.
Love the feel of the game but it is outrageously expensive for what you get. The dev needs to consider pricing it appropriately if he wants sales. It should be $10 max. Its a GZDOOM Mod. Also the mod has a staff that lets you shoot bees so it gets a thumbs up

Awesome gem of a game. A nice blend of heretic, blood and doom all rolled into one. Nice level design and a decent length of a game. Enemy roster is interesting and balanced. The music is also nice and charming! If you are a fan of oldschool fps games. Borrowhelen is definitely for you. I recommend this game :)
A really enjoyable game that feels like it stands in between Blood and Heretic - levels are relatively simple but surprisingly complex in layout; gameplay is enjoyable as well, with plenty of secrets to find as well as a secret level for each episode (only found 2 of them) The story got me surprisingly engaged; whilst it's not really innovative or new it was still enough motivation to get me going and there's a few cool drawn, animated and voiced cutscenes to continue the plot onwards. Can definitely recommend this.
If you are looking for an experience as close to the 90s as possible. PLEASE PLAY 'BORROWHELEN' It's a slow burner with VERY entertaining aspects along the way. It has that FPS charisma of the MSDOS era. Of course, it's not perfect but is a very good GZDOOM game with Lots of passion and hardwork. PLEASE support your indie devs and give it a try!
Very nice gzdoom boom shoot that has unfortunately flown under the radar.
I'll update this soon just want to give it a Thumbs Up now while going through it! We need to push this Hidden Gem from 2024 so hopefully it will get to 10 positive with this one! Real Boomer Shooter!
На удивление прекрасная игра! Этот мод для gzdoom выдержан в ретро стилистике с 256-цветовой палитрой. Годный и разнообразный дизайн уровней. Можно описать как средневековый blood c примесью серьезного фэнтези, где магия соседствует с наукой. Игра сделана одним человеком, который внимательно подошел к каждому аспекту.
Putting a review up for this lost build engine cousin, as it draws more than a little from Blood. This game has a fun arsenal and some enemies who probably skipped the class on cliffs.
A really underrated fps thats a medieval gzdoom version of blood, amazing weapons, pretty good enemies, only issue is that the bosses are tanky as everlasting ♥♥♥♥, but def a great time. Played on the hardest difficulty and it was really fun. Highly recommend especially if your into build engine games.
