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): 0.57/day in the week to Aug 8 → 1.29/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.

Not a lot of metroidvanias capture the Metroid half very well, but this one does so perfectly. It's creepy, it's got a huge map that never feels too obnoxious to backtrack through, it's got secrets that I'm still working on! My only major complaint is that the boss design is really hit or miss, but there's frequent checkpoints so I never got too annoyed. Fantastic game, hope it gets a sequel.
phenomenal game that will kick your ass until you master it, littered with plenty of secrets for those looking for an extra challenge if the rest of the game wasn't difficult enough do yourself a favor and pick up a wii classic controller + usb adapter specifically to play this game, the octagonal gates around the joysticks make aiming feel superb

Наконец-то Метроид. Не клон Hollow Knight или метроидных Castlevania, которые безусловно хорошие игры. Это буквально Метроид, тот самый, с исследованием неизвестной планеты и стрелятельным геймплеем, а вдобавок к этому с опцией твинстикового управления и совсем уж крышесносящими битвами с боссами. Игру можно пройти менее чем за десять часов (если у вас получится, ведь игра не из простых) и при этом увидеть ну очень много всякого разного. Местные лабиринты радуют обилием развилок, аж глаза разбегаются, биомов много, уникальных врагов и ситуаций много. Играть в это есть смысл вне зависимости от того, проходили ли вы игры серии Metroid или нет, этой игре найдётся чем вас удивить. Если вас интересует контент посложнее, просто наберите в поиске YouTube "This Metroidvania Has The Hardest Boss In Video Games". И это будет даже не единственный хардкорный необязательный контент в игре.
A hidden gem for lovers of Metroid games. I’d say it even does it better than its inspiration. Student always overcomes the teacher. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Incredible and underrated game. There's one or two bosses that are pretty overturned, but nothing harder than what you would face in a Souls-Like. People saying it is too hard either need to get good or turn on the assist options.
A love letter to Metroid. Highly recommended.
This game is fantastic, if you want an extremely hard Metroid-like that will kick your ass, this is for you.
10/10 the best tribute to the metroid series out there and a absolutly incredable game all its own. I dearly hope we get a sequle so I can explore more of these worlds and mroe of your designs
