Compare Prices(9 stores)
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 Ruggnar
Ruggnar strips platforming down to its essentials: jumping, a light source, and patience. There are no enemies to fight, no combat timers breathing down your neck. Instead, you're navigating claustrophobic darkness where every trap is invisible until you inch forward with your candles, mapping out safe routes through careful observation. It's more puzzle than twitch-reflex game, rewarding methodical play over quick fingers. The minimalist approach is both strength and limitation. If you're the type who enjoys slow-burn exploration and don't mind dying repeatedly to learn trap layouts, the mood is genuinely unsettling and satisfying. But if you want progression systems, story beats, or much variety in mechanics, Ruggnar stays lean by design. It's niche, honest, and knows exactly what it is.
