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/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.

Reviews
Visual novel in which you play the role of a bus passenger and talk to various travel companions ✅Few cool MP3 soundtracks ❌No dialogue options, just click on text ❌Ugly graphics ❌Very high price. Should be a maximum of $1 ❌The game is more of a comic book than a game because you only scroll through text; nothing else. A game without dialogue makes no sense ❌No voice acting, just text ❌❌ Verdict: [b] Very Bad [/b] , [strike] Bad [/strike] , [strike] Average [/strike] , [strike] Decent [/strike] , [strike] Good [/strike] , [strike] Very Good [/strike] (Rating scale for tested games) If you have any questions about my reviews, feel free to ask.

A boring game where you eat, go to the toilet, and read boring stories.
The game is quite engaging, especially the stories of the characters you interact with — you can really immerse yourself in their narratives. I’d love to see more updates and improvements, as the game feels like it’s over too quickly.
[b]...so I tell him, after that I don't eat apples.[/b] Have you ever been on a long journey and started a conversation with a random person? In this game, we'll have many such opportunities. In fact, it's a very unusual gameplay, we literally need to talk to different people while we are driving. Besides this, we'll have a needs meter and must buy food and drinks, as well as go to the toilet. Overall, it's a simple but unique game, not something you see every day. I recommend giving it a try, it's worth it. [code]If you read the review and liked it, don't forget to give it a thumbsup;)[h3][i]The further - The better♥️[/i][/h3][/code]
I thought this game would tell some more or less interesting stories or at least have some unique perspectives about life... I did not find such things. The whole game was about clicking through nonsense and taking care of the meters in the corner. Pure filler.
for free overall alright.
It's cute and there are a couple of nice stories but... it largely just feels like being stuck on a bus with someone who won't shut up? Which I realize is the point, but still. The concept is fun for a little but but then it just keeps going. Most interesting passenger was the developer explaining how he came up with it and what was cut. More interesting in theory than practice.
Even on sale, this game left me feeling bored. The concept is interesting but it didn't challenge or entertain me.
I liked the interesting and original idea of the game, it would be interesting to see something similar, but about traveling by train, I like trains more than buses)
