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 24 → 0.14/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 25 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 10 places towards #1, and the 2,413 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.

Хорошая игра, мне понравилась, очень прикольный стиль. Не сильно сложная, по это хотелось бы добавить уровень сложности где нельзя будет смотреть подсказки. В целом мне всё нравится.
Very good vintage game. The graphics are truly unique and create a post-apocalyptic atmosphere from start to finish. The gameplay has been significantly improved compared to the demo which makes the game enjoyable to play.
Sehr gut gemachtes Point & Click Advenutre! Die Rätsel sind logisch, wenn man sich auf die Welt einlässt.

Back in the Swamp may be a rather short game, and there’s little in the way of defined story and lore to make sense of it all, but sometimes a game just wants you to explore and experience a world the developers built for you. It’s clear that something bad happened here, and the oppressive isolation of the environment – even when you arrive at a couple populated settlements – just keeps adding to the atmosphere and the feeling of being alone, perhaps with the fate of what’s left of the world resting entirely in your hands. In all, this is a game to look at and listen to – to experience – more than anything else. And I’m fine with that in a game as effective as this one is at establishing player immersion. https://adventuregamehotspot.com/review/6248/back-in-the-swamp
A very enjoyable post apocalyptic Myst-like game. Not very chalenging, but a nice 4-5 hour play.
Игра с выдающимся визуалом, в лучших традициях старых point and click игр. Аутентичный мир, окружение которого хочется исследовать и разглядывать каждый его уголок. Достойное саунд-сопровождение — в некоторых местах треск и шорохи амбиента реально пугают. Моё прохождение на 100% заняло около 3 часов. Из недостатков: простые задания "возьми, принеси, поставь". Местами длинные, пустые переходы наскучивали, но их заполняет красота и подача мира, нивелируя "пустоту". Немного разрушает погружение обратный полёт камеры — игрок будто идёт спиной вперёд. Местами это сильно режет погружение. Всем любителям фантастики в стиле Стругацких, Лема, Булычёва — 100% рекомендация к прохождению.
挺好玩
Awesome old-school adventure game. Great visuals and music make for a truly immersive atmosphere. We need more like this!
Игра крутая!) Стильный визуал, хороший квест!) Прохождение на все достижения: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vSVl4_n1sYU&t=5769s
This is a short indie game and a classic B-movie mixed together into a rough little diamond. Positives: The raw style and atmosphere in the visuals and sound perfectly fit the mood of the world. Negatives: I struggled with the controls (arrow-key system) and wished there was a better way to move around. The puzzles are okay, but you’d better not rush - some objects are really well hidden.
