What Steam players say
Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
Players appreciate this indie game as a fun, challenging experience with solid retro aesthetics and engaging loot-farming mechanics, though opinions split on its longevity and appeal. While some find several hours of enjoyment in the fair boss fights and permadeath modes, others find it bland and lacking sufficient depth, story, or audio design to maintain long-term engagement. The game works best for those seeking a short, nostalgic arcade-style experience, though some feel the sound effects and repetitive nature limit its staying power.
It's a fun little game that can be quite challenging especially on hard mode with permadeath enabled. Getting new loot and trying to farm for the best weapons and beating your own time is enjoyable and well implemented. The boss fights are fair with one exception... F*** the Duck. Nevertheless the boss fights are enjoyable even if the sound effects can be a bit annoying if you play it for longer. Overall a solid little game that can be fun for a few hours if you like small indie games that have their edges.4 found this helpful
Alphabetical Order is a compact action RPG that builds its identity around surreal storytelling, fast combat, loot collection, and replay-focused challenges. Developed and published by PI.NNY, the game takes a deliberately unconventional approach to the genre, mixing a mysterious narrative with arena battles, equipment progression, crafting, magic, and speedrunning. Its pixel-art presentation may initially make it appear relatively simple, but underneath that modest exterior is a collection of interconnected systems intended to encourage experimentation and repeated playthroughs. The adventure begins with the protagonist awakening in a place resembling a graveyard. The surroundings are cold, dark, rainy, and immediately unsettling, but the greater problem is that the character cannot remember their own name. From this unusual starting point, the player follows signs and searches for shelter while gradually becoming involved in a much stranger journey. The central premise revolves around fighting not only for survival but also for identity and social status. This gives the story a peculiar personality that fits the game's surreal atmosphere, especially as the player progresses from…2 found this helpful
This is a fun game. Just go and try it out, I'm sure it will entertain you as well.1 found this helpful
Fun little game. The game idea/concept is really nice and you'll get a fun hour or two out of it.1 found this helpful
I got some Atari 2600 vibes, cool retro style. Sound effects caught me off-guard though :D1 found this helpful
Yeah. Not much fun. A little bland, not much of a story to it starting out, no good background music, nothing to keep you really engaged. Thought it would be fun nostalgia. Not really enough to set it apart or keep me playing.
