Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 0/day in the week to Sep 2 → 0/day in the week after.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 0/day in the week to Jul 21 → 0.2/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 26 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 7 places towards #1, and the 2,400 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

This game was an experience. Dripping with atmosphere. Unique approach to the point and click genre. They type of game you think about when you're not playing it. Hope to god the developer gives us more.
Хороший дешёвенький лавкрафтовский квест. Атмосферно, детективно, мрачненько, кроваво, разные концовки. Короче играть можно.
Played the demo and was immediately hooked. This is an AGS classic. The stand out features are the unravelling story, the detective noir style gameplay and the excellent use of ambient sound and music. Bravo!

Very good old school horror point and click game. Liked it from start to finish! It's up there as one of my favorites.
Uma incrível história de horror com mecanicas bem engenhosas!
游戏开始的画面和色彩吸引了我,不过后期和前面的感觉并不完全相同 但不影响它把恐惧刻进了画面和逻辑中。缺乏一定的引导,不过也是我看对话不够认真导致的,有时候会快进而错过目标。 我的体验很好,不过这不是一个体量很大的游戏,部分细节和作者其他游戏有联动。故事讲的很好。我的体验很好
Концовки немного скучноваты, но в общем и целом игра хорошая. Хоррорный элемент подан грамотно: постоянно идёт дождь, играет давящий эмбиент, в расследовании показывают какой-то бади-хоррор и фриков, диалоги тоже написаны увлекательно и не утомляют. Пазлы тут легкие, но при этом всё равно создается ощущение, что ты реально продвигаешься по делу, собираешь улики и движешься к разгадке своими силами. В общем, игра проходится за 4 часа без гайдов. Она интересная, атмосферная и в ней особо не к чему придраться, кроме стандартных концовок, которым не хватает изящества и глубины.
还可以,像看了部无功无过的B级片
Great game! It kind of reminded me of something one might find in the dark corner of a video rental store in the 90's.. a hidden gem! If you dig it check out the other entries in the Abscission-verse: "Teeth of Glass" and "Snarl".
The first ever game of yours I ever played was The Anchorite, and It was a fun little game so I decided to check out your other works and holy, I have really been into the works of H.P. Lovecraft recently, close to reading every work by him. This game captured that style beautifully, and every single one of the endings gave me straight chills. I am very excited to play Carnival next! :3
