Every store in this table quotes us in euros, so the EUR figure is the price the seller actually set, not our arithmetic — which is why EUR is also the currency we rank in. We only list an offer here when the store gives us its price in euros, so nothing in this table is a number we invented.
Pick USD, PLN, GBP, CAD or AUD in the header and we convert from EUR at the European Central Bank reference rate — converted amounts are prefixed with ~. Your bank or the store may apply a different rate at checkout. We never hide offers based on where you are: everyone sees this whole table.
We may earn a commission when you buy games through links on this page — at no extra cost to you. It never affects our rankings or verdicts.

About Elsie
I spent a handful of runs with Elsie and came away impressed by how deliberately the game leans into pure mechanical joy. You dash through neon-soaked procedural levels, picking up magitek weapons that feel genuinely distinct, and the combat loop never asks you to sit through exposition or elaborate on why you're here. It's hyperkinetic in the best sense: responsive, colorful, and built for short bursts or longer sessions depending on your mood. What works is the weapon variety. Each run feels different enough that you'll chase just one more go. The pixel art pops, and the pacing respects your time. It's not trying to be Hades or Deep Rock Galactic. It's content being a tight, single-developer project that knows exactly what it is: pure arcade energy in a roguelike shell.
