What is Duskfade’s current Metacritic score?

Metric	Value as of September 20, 2026
Metascore	78/100
Critic reviews	22
Classification	Generally Favorable
User score	8.0/10 from 48 user ratings

Metacritic’s live page now shows a 78 critic score from 22 reviews. The earlier 79/15 snapshot is historical and should not be presented as the current value. User ratings are a different sample and are not part of the Metascore calculation.

What does the 78 mean?

The score indicates a generally favorable critic consensus, not a guarantee that every player will enjoy the same systems. Reviews tend to reward Duskfade’s movement, exploration, clockpunk art, bosses, and emotional story. Reservations focus on combat feel, camera and navigation, pacing, repetition, and occasional technical roughness.

Examples in the current critic pool range from high praise to mixed scores. Use the review count and the linked write-ups to understand that spread; do not quote an isolated number as the whole consensus.

Why can the score change?

Metacritic adds or updates critic reviews and can change platform coverage. Re-check the live page before using the number. Do not average Metacritic with OpenCritic, Steam’s positive ratio, or PlayStation stars because each service uses different sources and formulas.

How to use this score when deciding

Treat 78 as a screening signal, then compare the recurring strengths and caveats with your priorities. Players mainly interested in platforming and exploration should read the positive movement comments; players prioritizing deep combat or technical polish should check platform reviews and a demo before buying.

Watch I Dream of Indie Games’ review. It adds one independent opinion and is not a Metacritic-produced video.
