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 22 → 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.
About
Overrun with invaders, the Realm of Hyelore was all but lost until the Guardians came. Rallying the people, they set forth with a grand army to fight back against the monsters, travelling far and wide to reclaim the lands from the forces of evil.
Guardians of Hyelore is an action packed, army-spawning game where you must summon your forces and send them against the enemy to bring down their towers and reclaim the land. Packed with unique elements of unit recruitment, economy management, and battle strategy, you must battle your way through non-stop waves of enemies in an effort to destroy their tower and defeat them!
Recruit your Units
Find the right balance between frontline warriors, supporting clerics, ranged archers, and destructive mages to bring you victory in each battle. With 150+ enemies across 35 campaign missions, each including a powerful boss enemy to defeat, you’ll need to manage your economy carefully, so that your troops will have the support they need to win!
Summon your Guardian
While regular foot troops are the bread and butter of any army, they need someone to lead them! Who better than your Guardian, the most powerful heroes to walk the lands of Hyelore? Choose your favorite Guardian to support your troops, whether charging from the front, or healing from the back, and lead your forces to victory.
Customize your Strategy
Choose passive abilities after each mission that change how you build your army. Give your frontline troops more health, make your healers twice as effective, or lower the cost to hire archers. Spend points earned through missions and achievements to upgrade your troops, carefully deciding which ones will become the most powerful and effective. Unlock powerful new abilities for your Guardian to turn the tide of battle!
Purchase Items and Abilities
Visit the shop to buy powerful items; blast your foes with fire, lightning, or dynamite, and heal your troops with magical potions. Upgrade your tower to make it stronger and more resilient to attack!
Conquer the Arena
Once you’ve saved the lands of Hyelore, test your skills against the Arena! A never-ending stream of foes with unique bosses, events, and challenges that will test your army, your Guardian, and your strategies to the limit. Show your mettle on the leaderboards against the other players to prove your skills.

Fun little game to play for a bit if you can pick it up cheap.
Not worth $20 at all, but if you get it in a bundle or at a MASSIVE discount it's fun. Feels and looks like a free to play flash game, but has a $20 tag.

good auto battler without any micro transactions. better buy and play this game than a "free game" that want suck your bank account empty later.
Game was fun but VERY short and VERY buggy... I would recommend if they added some replayability and fixed the bugs. Short: I have beat the game on the 2nd hardest difficulty in about 5 hours Gameplay issues: Do not have that much control over what skills you are awarded and can upgrade (for example can do a playthrough wanting to focus on archers but never be offered the archer damage talent, or never being offered an upgrade for it, even spending all your gems rerolling the talents you did get) Finished the game at lvl 27 but some characters do not unlock till 30 (i have since leveled up through the area, but its very strange that there is units you cannot even try during a normal playthrough) Would be really nice if there was a way to get/upgrade skills and get exp etc after you finished the campaign to really min/max your account, this would also add length to the game. (also note the campaign is fun, but the arena is not, it takes way too long (30min+ of idle pretty much) to get to a challenge, possible to start on a higher wave?) Very Buggy, some i encountered: In arena sometimes when an enemy casts a skill it can get stuck on screen... This has happened to me in the first couple waves (aoe kept hitting my unit for the next 20+ waves) or on higher waves (game over as a high dps skill keeps firing and never stops, even when u killed the enemy casting it) In the campaign, when u reroll a skill, you can get multiple skills back if u click fast enough on the reroll button. The volume sliders just dont work... I had to just mute the game as somethings would be crazy quiet and some would be super loud even though i changed the volume down low on skills, some skills went on the low volume and some didnt... When i reached level 30, went into area, i did not have access to the level 30 units (was not able to upgrade past level 1).. Restarted the game, then it worked... when hitting 75 max unit count before level 10 (possible in arena with upgrades) it still lets u level up, but u pay gold and nothing happens (cant go over 75 unit cap) when hitting max 3500 gold (just keep hitting I in arena when its maxed, it will keep upgrading) you no longer can gain gold at all AND waves wont progress (game gets stuck) fullscreen cuts off the bottom of the screen (can no longer see how many units of each time i have summoned)
가볍게 플레이 해보려고 쉬움 난이도로도 해보고 일반 난이도로도 해봤는데 둘이 별 차이가 없을 정도로 난이도 밸런스에 신경을 안 썼습니다. 게임에 배수도 없고 게임 스테이지 로딩 시간도 이상하리 만치 길고 유닛들의 움직임도 서로 끼면 버벅거리고 스킬 쓰는 것도 확률이고 타겟팅도 뭔가 딴 곳을 때리고 있고 유닛들이 무슨 공격에 강점이 있거나 하는 점도 없고.. 특히 개인적인 생각인데, 플레이 하다보면 적군쪽 타워 공격하는 횟수나 공격력이랑 소환하는 보스 몬스터 패턴이 개초딩 같아서 플레이 하는 내내 기분이 더럽기만 합니다. 다른 타워 디펜스 전쟁게임 많으니까 그거 하세요.
Amazing! Love this game and it works 99% on the steam deck, just 3 small issues: The modals for the spell upgrades get cropped, I suspect that it's due to the aspect ratio? There's a bit of slowdown in the most intense battles (doesn't happen terribly often and it doesn't affect gameplay much The loading seems to get stuck around 90% and takes a while to finish I'd say the description texts being cropped is the biggest issue but I was still able to play the game through to the 3rd world without struggling too much and let me tell you, totally amazing fun. Couldn't put it down for hours.
挺好玩的,挺有挑战性的。比想象中的好多了。游戏好不好玩过才知道。不过内容少是真的,我玩的节奏慢,大概9到10个小时通关 不过游戏很舒服
https://youtu.be/AsZcu-s1Uq8 Game balance is askew as healer spam is highly effective while the limited map variety and enemy types keep the problem space far to limited to be compelling.
Well made game, fun to play
