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 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.

还可以,像看了部无功无过的B级片
He disfrutado mucho el juego. Comienza como una historia policíaca algo gore, pero pasando el primer crimen, se vuelve muy humana. Propone una versión muy inteligente de las criaturas vegetales y los mundos paralelos creados por Clark Ashton Smith, dentro de la mitología lovecraftiana. Se puede jugar con tranquilidad, la aventura permite pensar en las repercusiones de las decisiones que se van tomando, sin prisas. Los puzles son sencillos, simplemente van haciendo avanzar la historia. Incluye pequeñas mecánicas RPG, pero apenas están insinuadas. Lo recomiendo mucho: es corto, sencillo y con una historia de fondo bien armada. Para disfrutarlo mejor, recomiendo que se juegue junto a Snarl, una pequeña entrega anterior muy breve, ambientada en el mismo mundo.

Such a gloomy atmosphere for a well written game. It was quite eerie, especially the first half. Made me think of these harrowing episodes from the two first season of X-Files. The soundtrack played a major role in this feeling of dread. Congrats! Now I'll play the free prequel Snarl and keep it up with Carnival! I love point 'n click games and I can't believe that I had missed this gem. P.S. : if the dev reads this : I also checked out your blog and I had a blast reading your Adventure X diary.
The pixel art and the eerie atmosphere are absolutely outstanding. If you love point-and-click adventure games, I highly recommend this!
Dunno why ppl nagging ab the art.. I myself dig the retro pixel aesthetics but find the music lacking. Part of the game is just silent. Anyways, so far so good
It's a good game. Very atmospheric with good music and nice art (with some exceptions). It has a solid story, though the puzzles are average. I liked the fact that some of the puzzles were quite abstract due to the storyline (supernatural forces, people in delirium), but their potential was unfortunately not fully explored. However, the direction was great, as the game mixes down-to-earth puzzles with more abstract ones. During the gameplay, I was a little disappointed that the computer database wasn't a bit richer. I would say that puzzles are not the strong point of this game, but the storyline and atmosphere definitely are. My final score would be a strong 7.5/10. I admire the talent of the author. Oh one more thing. Even though I liked the art style, the quality was a bit inconsistent, but some of the shots looked very cinematic, which I really enjoyed.
A short, moody and surprisingly well written point & click with a few choices and different endings, where I was satisfied even though I got the two "bad" endings out of the 4 available. If the overall setting appeals to you, I would definitely recommend giving it a go.
A great adventure indie game! I loved it!
Incredible spooky point and click game! So much fun, and very addictive!! The art and soundtrack are stunning. Amazing!!
Коряво, зато Мифос Ктулху. И недолго.
