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.

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.
About

After agreeing to take on what seems like a mundane story about the unique city and its planned road bridge, journalist James Maynard finds himself uncovering a disturbing underbelly to the local customs, and a hideous core to the notion of Venetian pride.
Not even the might of Mussolini can truly kill the Carnival.
Winner of Best Lines of Dialogue - Adventure Games Of The Year 2025.

Carnival is an atmospheric folk horror point-&-click set in a time of European upheaval, where the past and the future collide. The protagonist must struggle with narcolepsy and its effect on both his memory and perception of the increasingly twisted reality around him.

The game features atmospheric low-resolution pixel art graphics, multiple locations drawn from Venice itself, and developing relationships with NPCs, allowing the player to influence events in the game and achieve multiple different endings.
Carnival now also features the full soundtrack (over three hours of atmospheric soundscapes), playable through Steam, for free!

Developed by Beyond Booleans, creator of Abscission, winner of three AGS awards.

Ein tolles Adventure. Die Puzzles sind zwar eher leicht bis sehr leicht, aber die Pixel-Art ist großartig, der Soundtrack ein absolutes Highlight und die Geschichte ist wirklich furchteinflössend. Eines der besten creepy adventures der letzten Jahre. Eine absolute Empfehlung. Die Credits verraten, dass das Spiel sein Leben als Novelle begonnen hat. Und die literarische Qualität merkt man dem Spiel an. Wer gerne viele sehr gut geschriebene Texte liest und Lovecraft liebt (und dabei aber etwas eigenes, Neues dem bloßen Wieder-Aufgewärmten vorzieht), hat hier genau sein Adventure gefunden.
A few typos and minor bugs, but nothing that ruined my enjoyment, and the creeping atmosphere of dread kept me riveted to my computer. A toothsome, meaty little morsel of a game.

Great game in the Lovecraft world. The atmosphere is fantastic, it is well written and does not waste your time. It took me only 2 hours to get the best ending. Puzzles are really easy. The best way to enjoy it is to put on headphones and play it at night.
A fantastic point-and-click game! While this one is more dialogue heavy than most games of the genre I still enjoyed getting to know the characters and the lore of this place!
