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 3 → 0.14/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.

Short and simple horror-action game. I will admit that the combat did start to irritate me at the end, but I turned on easy mode and was fine after that. Two of the enemies are lodged on the stairs and bug out sometimes, and god forbid you stand in the wrong place when they spawn, because they will attack from underneath you.
Short but engaging, I liked the combat even if it felt a little janky at times. Just wish this was longer
It was. something alright.

игра, ярко демонстрирующая, как легко может деградировать человеческая личность в состояние проросшей картофелины из-под раковины.
ok lol
Short, sweet, to the point little horror game that I honestly enjoyed my time with. It is short - REALLY short. I have 100% of the achievements and just over half an hour of playtime. But the price kind of reflects this. $3 for 30 minutes of playtime is maybe a tad steep of an ask, but it is on sale often and anything under $2 feels like it is worth it for the experience candidly.
played it, enjoyed it, really should be like a dollar cause I do want to support this dev. Hope to see more in the future
a great and fairly short horror experience, with all the tasty PS1 era graphics you could want in a game. some parts started to get frustrating having to play them over and over again to progress but eventually you push through, overall I highly recommend it!
