Does Helltaker hold up?
Holds steady
At least 98% of its Steam reviewers recommend it at every stage from 2 to 100 hours played.
Earned when at least 90% of a game's Steam reviewers recommend it at every stage past the first two hours, counted over three or more stages of 200 reviews each, with no stage 5 points below an earlier one. Every game that holds it.
How this is counted
Half of its Steam reviewers had played 1.5 hours or less when they gave their verdict. The middle half sat between 1 hour and 3 hours.
One token is 1% of its Steam reviews, standing at the hours its author had played. Counted from about 131,000 Steam reviews, by the hours each author had played when they wrote theirs. It is not a time to beat.
It holds steady: between 98% and 99% recommend it at every stage past the first two hours.

How this is counted
The typical player's hours are the hours Steam reviewers had played when they wrote their review, not a time to beat. The days count from today, playing the hours the pace says on each day.
Where do players get filtered in Helltaker?
The filter
Queentaker
21 of every 100 players got to this one and no further.
They hold Doomtaker and never earned it.
How this is counted
91% of the players who launched Helltaker hold Doomtaker, its first story achievement on Steam, and 42% hold Sintaker, its last. The steepest drop comes between Doomtaker (91%) and Queentaker (70%).
Steam's global achievement stats count everyone who ever launched the game, people still playing included. They are not a finish rate. The filter is the steepest drop between two story achievements; the players who never reached the first one barely started, and are never the filter.

Where can I play Helltaker today?
On PC
Its own release still plays there: no collection or remaster needed.
- todayPC2020
How this is counted
From IGDB, found by its Steam app: the machines Helltaker came out on and the year it first reached each, and the collections, ports, remasters and remakes that carry it. A machine counts for today while it, or the one after it, still plays its games and its store sells them: Switch, PlayStation 4 and 5, Xbox One and Series, PC and phones. A PC release from before 2005 counts as gone, unless Steam sells it. IGDB does not say when a store stopped selling a release, so a delisted one can still show here.
Would you like Helltaker?
Give the ball your Steam profile link or name. It reads the games you own most like Helltaker, how long each held you against the typical player, and how long Helltaker would take you. Public profiles only. No account needed, and no library is saved.
How this is counted
It reads how long you tend to stay: across every game you've played whose typical hours it knows (free games left out), how often you went past the typical player and how often you left before half their hours. It glows when you often stay past them, dims when you often leave early, and needs five played games to read at all. Then it shows the games you own most like this one, by the same measure as the shelf of games like it, each with your hours against the typical player's.
Why not a forecast for this game: on 36,766 Steam libraries, how a player did on games like one told little beyond how long they stay in games at all, so those games are shown as evidence and never scored. Nothing of the library is kept.

How this is counted
Its own series apart, where it plays alike; then the games sharing the most of its strongest Steam tags, genres and themes, the better known ahead among the about as alike. A model that knows games read the list once: the ones it said do not play like this game are left out, the closest come first. Under each name, what sets it apart from Helltaker: a kind of game it is that Helltaker is not, a feature its tags carry that Helltaker's barely do, how many hours people play it, how its reviewers feel. Each case wears the hours its own page leads with.
