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 Sep 8 → 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.
About
Dark Moon is a survival strategy game where time is working against you. With the Moon’s electronics down it is up to you to traverse the lunar soil and try to make contact with Earth while managing your crew and resources. You will never know what you will encounter along your way, thus be prepared to make crucial decisions and live with the consequences. Whatever you do - don’t go into the light!
As a member of the Engineering Council sent by Moon Shell, your task was to oversee the construction of a newly developed mining system on the Moon. The simple objective changed dramatically when a massive solar storm hit the Earth, destroying all electronics in its wake. Soon after, you witness the Sun's scorching heat as the Moon's main communication relay falls into the light. You are alone, and now everything within the Sun's reach is gone within seconds. The light is your enemy and the darkness is your salvation.
The Sun is destroying everything it touches, you must avoid its radiance. The Mechaplex - a giant, general-purpose engineering vehicle will stand as your base of operations. It will also serve as your getaway vehicle, thus plan your actions accordingly and escape the tireless enemy. You must constantly move forward.
A different experience with each playthrough as each location and event may bring unpredictable results. Scan the terrain and obstacles with your drones to prepare for what lies ahead. Embrace or beware of other survivors who will want to join your convoy. Gather minerals and use their properties to increase your chances of survival.
The Mechaplex is your means of survival; build new buildings on top of it, research new technologies, enhance your crew's abilities, and traverse the lunar plains. Develop new mechanical prototypes that will enhance your mineral gathering or focus on enhancing your convoy's movement speed to elude the Sun's deadly grasp. You can't stay in one place for too long.
You are not the only one who is seeking a way out of this disaster. New crew members, some even pilots such as yourself, can join and bring you valuable abilities and new building platforms, but you have to feed and shelter them. Will you help the unfortunate? Or will you look out for yourself and not risk being betrayed? What kind of person are you?
Keep in mind that your crew will react to your decisions. Some members will dislike joining with someone from a rival country while others will embrace him. Decide to throw out a popular member and you may risk a revolt, which may have dire consequences for everyone.

Не интересно .
Nice concept, good visuals, and... thats it. UI is an absolute mess. Complicated, disorganized. Not for me.

Тупа гра ! Марна трата грошей !
Gra na dłuższy czas powtarzalna i nudna, słaby wątek fabularny.
Это черт возьми максимально не комфортная игра! Даже для тех, кто уже в подобные игры в целом играл...Интерфейс не слишком юзер френдли, но в целом понятный, но после того, как ты его перешерстишь раз сто по кругу...Слишком много точек интереса в самой игре, экипаж, здания, время, задания, фракции, технологии, ресурсы которых постоянно не хватает! Зама концепция интересная, но реализация не очень...
Уныло и скучно, ходи от точки А в точку В, почитай текстовую историю, и так по кругу, ах да, таймер тебя поджимает, ни строительства, ни тактики. Полное разочарование.
Dark Moon is a science-fiction survival strategy game developed by Jujubee S.A. and published by 101XP that builds its entire identity around a fascinating and unconventional idea. Instead of protecting humanity from hostile creatures, environmental disasters, or invading armies, players must survive a catastrophe in which sunlight itself has become deadly. Set on the Moon after a devastating solar event cripples Earth and transforms direct exposure to sunlight into a lethal threat, the game combines colony management, exploration, resource gathering, and moral decision-making into a tense struggle for survival where darkness is the only refuge. The game's narrative begins with a routine lunar operation that quickly spirals into a nightmare. A powerful solar storm destroys critical systems on Earth and cuts off communication, leaving lunar personnel isolated from humanity's home world. The situation becomes even more alarming when survivors discover that exposure to sunlight is now fatal. This revelation completely alters the rules of survival and establishes one of the game's most compelling strengths: its ability to transform a familiar element of everyday life into a source of constant danger. At the heart of the experience is a massive mobile structure known as the Mechaplex. Rather than building a stationary settlement, players command a traveling base that serves as transportation, shelter, storage facility, and command center. This mobile headquarters becomes the center of every decision. As the threat of sunlight advances across the lunar landscape, remaining in one place is rarely an option. The constant need to relocate creates a unique form of pressure that separates Dark Moon from traditional city builders and colony simulators. Resource management is a critical component of survival. Players must gather minerals, fuel, and other valuable materials while maintaining the needs of their crew and ensuring that the Mechaplex remains operational. Every expedition requires careful planning because resources are limited and mistakes can have serious consequences. The game constantly asks players to balance immediate survival against future growth, creating a satisfying strategic challenge that rewards efficient planning and thoughtful decision-making. The exploration system helps keep gameplay engaging throughout the campaign. The lunar surface contains numerous locations to investigate, each offering opportunities and dangers. Abandoned facilities, hidden caches of resources, mysterious anomalies, and unexpected encounters encourage players to venture beyond their immediate surroundings. Drones and scouting operations play an important role in uncovering valuable information before committing precious resources, making exploration feel like an essential part of survival rather than a simple side activity. Crew management adds emotional weight to the experience. The survivors under the player's command are not merely statistics; they represent the future of the colony. New individuals can join the expedition, bringing unique skills, benefits, and challenges. Keeping morale high, managing relationships, and addressing the needs of the crew becomes just as important as maintaining supplies. These systems help create a stronger connection between the player and the people they are trying to save. One of the most interesting aspects of Dark Moon is its emphasis on difficult choices. Throughout the journey, players encounter situations that rarely offer perfect solutions. Decisions often involve weighing personal ethics against practical survival needs, forcing players to consider the consequences of their actions. Some choices provide immediate benefits while creating long-term complications, while others require sacrificing short-term advantages in hopes of securing a better future. These dilemmas contribute significantly to the game's atmosphere and narrative depth. The ever-present threat of sunlight remains the defining feature of the experience. Unlike many survival games where danger arrives intermittently, Dark Moon creates continuous tension through a hazard that never truly disappears. The advancing light serves as a relentless reminder that survival depends on constant adaptation. This mechanic successfully maintains pressure throughout the campaign and ensures that players can never become completely comfortable with their situation. Visually, the game does an excellent job of conveying the isolation of life on the Moon. Vast stretches of barren terrain, distant structures, and the stark contrast between darkness and deadly light create a memorable atmosphere. The setting feels lonely and hostile, reinforcing the themes of survival and uncertainty. While the graphics may not rival the largest productions in the genre, the environmental design effectively supports the game's core concepts. The game's greatest strength is undoubtedly its originality. Few strategy titles build their mechanics around such an unusual survival premise, and Dark Moon consistently leverages that concept to create meaningful gameplay. The combination of mobile-base management, exploration, crew leadership, resource gathering, and moral decision-making results in a distinctive experience that stands apart from more conventional colony simulations. Dark Moon is not a flawless game. Certain management systems can feel demanding, and the pacing occasionally slows during periods of resource collection and logistical planning. Players seeking fast action may find the deliberate progression challenging. However, those who appreciate thoughtful strategy, unique survival mechanics, and atmospheric science-fiction settings will discover a rewarding experience filled with tension and meaningful choices.
