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 Aug 31 → 0/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.

这游戏非常好玩,走两步游戏卡脚,走三步游戏死机,把游戏里的恐怖元素直接带到现实!!!!
This is the type of indie p. horror game that got me hooked in the first place. But now im jaded. Familiar house, but the 2nd half was unique to me. I appreciate any game like this that has a story and this one was interesting. Honestly the only thing that took me out of the game was the voice acting for the mother... the voice was just too young sounding. Until the credits indicated it was a separate person I was thinking that the same voice for Ethan was used, just in a falsetto.
Es dauert nur 3 Stunden, aber es ist eine sanfte Horrorbeschäftigung für langweilige Abendstunden.

Absum really surprised me in the best way. For Mixogames’ first game, it’s got a super creepy vibe that kicks in right from the start. The house constantly shifting around you is freaky in all the right ways, and the little story bits you find actually make you want to dig deeper. And the jumpscares? Yeah… they got me. More than once. Always hit right when I let my guard down. It’s a short, 1–1.5 hour experience, looks way better on medium or higher settings, and honestly feels way more polished than you’d expect from a first-time, self-taught dev. Really excited to see what Mixogames makes next.
I can only add to the postive reviews for ABSUM. 10/10 for atmosphere, the sound effects both ambient and triggered were excellent at creating an eerie and unsettling aura (at exactly the right volume too). I did struggle to follow the linear path of the game in the first section, but that might just be my stunning ability to not see things directly infront of me. Durr. :) The rest of it was a straightforward path of mysterious storytelling, perfectly timed jumpscares, and spooky scenery! For this developers first ever full-length game, especially in the horror genre, they knocked it out of the park!
If you had about 80% less pointless jump scares then the ones that you have would be much more effective. 5 bucks for 30 minutes of gameplay is pretty steep but I see potential here so I'm not going to downvote. Also please consider not using ai art in the future, it looks like ♥♥♥♥.
I don't do horror games but after this game, I do now! Awesome game with fun design and simple enough to keep it challenging without being annoying. Loved it and would recommend it to anyone who likes horror games.
This was a really good game, the graphics were good and there was just the right amount of jump scares. I will definitely be recommending this game to others.
good job mixo fun game enjoyed every minute love all the easter eggs for streamers and glad have maddvlad making his debut in the gaming world good stuff
