What Enter the Gungeon is
Enter the Gungeon is an adventure game developed by Dodge Roll and released in 2016. It was published by Devolver Digital. It is available on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Android, Google Stadia, iOS, Linux, Mac and PC (Microsoft Windows). It runs on Unity.
The premise, in the publisher's words
A group of misfits, each burdened by deep personal regret, descends into the Gungeon, a sprawling, ever-shifting fortress inhabited by hostile creatures made of ammunition called the Gundead. Their shared goal is to reach the deepest level of this labyrinth and claim its legendary treasure: a mythical gun said to have the power to kill the past. Each Gungeoneer carries their own reasons for seeking this weapon, hoping that by undoing their greatest mistake, they might find absolution.
How it plays
It is played from a bird view / isometric perspective. Its themes are action and fantasy. It is a single-player game with no multiplayer component. Available modes: Co-operative, Multiplayer and Single player. There are 54 achievements to unlock.

How long it takes, and what that costs
The main story runs about 55 hrs. Completing everything takes closer to 155 hrs, roughly 2.8 times the length of the critical path. At its current cheapest price of $2.99, that works out to about $0.05 per hour of the main story, or $0.02 per hour if you finish everything.
