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 14 → 0/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 2,402 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.

[b] Richtig schlecht. [/b] - Spiel linear, keinerlei Erkundungs- oder Verbesserungsmöglichkeiten - Story hat mich überhaupt nicht in den Bann gezogen Das Kampfsystem war sogar okay, leider muss man eben mit dem auskommen was man hat. Das hat auch irgendwie funktioniert, bis man auf einmal jemand beschützen muss. Hier wurde das Spiel so frustrierend, dass es zu den ganz wenigen gehört, die ich nicht mal durchgespielt habe… In einem Kampf, wurde der zu beschützende direkt vergiftet, so dass das Spiel immer noch zwei bis drei Runden vorbei war, keine Chance das irgendwie zu verhindern. Das hat nach 100 Versuchen doch irgendwie geklappt, weil ich das Glück hatte, dass die Vögel den zu beschützenden nicht angegriffen haben. Im nächsten Level wurde ihm dann ständig ein Stärke 7 oder 8 Treffer reingedrückt, dazu der Status verwundet.. bei 15 Lebenspunkten und so viel wie er sich bewegt, hat er sich dann immer selber umgebracht. Man selbst kann ihn nicht steuern, was das ganze einfach nur lächerlich gemacht hat.
Неплохой декбилдер в уникальной вселенной, придуманной разработчиками. Любопытные диалоги, которые не всегда хочется пропускать, а во второй половине игры как будто уже и подсаживаешься на историю. Эпичность задумки конечно же разбилась об жанр, ведь сражения с пауком в пустыне и [spoiler] врагом галактического масштаба [/spoiler] на одном поле боя показать просто нереальная задача. Я не большой любитель читать бесконечные описания к картам и их возможным апгрейдам, статусам и т п, поэтому оставляю какую-то вероятность, что билды в этой игре возможны. Но мне так не показалось. Последние несколько персонажей были бесполезны в команде [spoiler] и я бы сказал что это показательно, что в конце был файт, в котором пришлось сдуть пыль с неиспользуемых союзников и попробовать победить и за них [/spoiler]. Потому что потом мы бы все сказали "а зачем эти двое?". Кажется что декбилдеры нужны чтобы создавать какие-то сильные комбинации и быть эффективным, но тут тебя заставляют играть на условиях, когда ты всё равно теряешь бойцов и ресаешь их на поле боя. Это очень странно и вносит такой хаос, что о билдах можно и не заботиться, всё равно ты можешь бесконечно поднимать мертвых союзников прямо в бою. Так что я проходил всю игру на ядах, цепной молнии и поджигании. Это тот самый декбилдер, который ты до конца и не понял как прошёл. И наверное это хорошо для новичков в жанре. Достаточно качественный арт персонажей и окружения, хотя персонажи и странные. Хорошие эффекты, музыка, анимация. Игра не без багов, но ничего критичного. В целом, хорошая игруха, хотя и дороговато.

Excelente Deckbuilding, me encanta!
Macht sehr viel Spaß!
C'est bien, mais pour ma part je n'ai pas été impressionné car il manque un équilibre dans les batailles. Soit durant le jeu on rencontre des batailles faciles ou bien des batailles super difficiles qui vous retiennent durant plusieurs heures pour retomber par la suite avec d'autres batailles faciles, etc. Par contre le fond de l'histoire du RPG est bonne. 6.5 / 10
.Juego con dificultad alta.
El arte del juego es hermoso pero el sistema de combate es muy aburrido.
Si te gustan los juegos tacticos y de cartas este es el tuyo. Mi review: https://youtu.be/ejTKh4NHsiQ
Dark Sky, developed by Ganymede Games and published by Midwest Games, is a refreshing take on the increasingly crowded deckbuilding genre. Instead of relying on endless roguelike loops, it presents a structured, story-driven adventure that combines tactical positioning, character progression, and card-based combat into a cohesive experience. Set on the troubled world of Wolf Prime, the game invites players into a universe that has been irrevocably changed by a mysterious celestial event. Ships have fallen from the sky, settlements have become isolated, and an unsettling force lingers across the landscape. From the opening moments, the game establishes an atmosphere of curiosity and impending danger, encouraging players to uncover the truth behind the planet's downfall. The story centers on Squig and Norton, two ordinary workers whose lives are disrupted by extraordinary circumstances. Their journey evolves from a simple survival tale into a larger quest involving ancient mysteries, unlikely alliances, and the future of Wolf Prime itself. Throughout the campaign, players recruit additional companions, each contributing unique abilities and personalities that enrich both the narrative and gameplay. The writing succeeds in making the cast feel memorable, and while some plot developments follow familiar RPG traditions, the setting itself remains engaging enough to keep players invested through its many twists and revelations. Combat serves as the game's strongest feature. Dark Sky combines tactical movement with a card system that rewards planning and experimentation. Positioning units on the battlefield can be just as important as selecting the right card, creating encounters that feel dynamic rather than repetitive. Every character possesses a customizable deck that can be expanded and modified through branching upgrades, allowing players to develop specialized strategies. Some builds emphasize crowd control and elemental effects, while others focus on direct damage or support capabilities. This flexibility makes assembling a party particularly satisfying, especially as players discover powerful combinations between team members during longer battles. Unlike many deckbuilders that reset progress after each run, Dark Sky embraces persistent progression. New abilities, improved cards, and stronger party compositions carry forward throughout the adventure, reinforcing the feeling of embarking on an epic journey rather than repeatedly starting over. Exploration also plays an important role, with Wolf Prime offering hidden locations, environmental details, and optional discoveries that provide additional context for the world's history. The game's visual style may not be technically groundbreaking, but it effectively captures the bleak beauty of its setting. Combined with a fitting soundtrack and expressive character artwork, the presentation delivers a consistent sense of identity from beginning to end. There are, however, a few shortcomings that prevent Dark Sky from reaching its full potential. Certain sections of the campaign can feel slow, particularly when dialogue-heavy moments interrupt the momentum established by combat. Enemy variety occasionally falls short during extended play sessions, and some card combinations appear significantly more effective than others, which can reduce the incentive to experiment once players discover particularly strong builds. These issues do not severely diminish the experience, but they are noticeable enough to keep the game from standing among the genre's absolute best offerings. Ultimately, Dark Sky succeeds because it understands the strengths of both tactical RPGs and deckbuilders without becoming overly dependent on either. It offers a handcrafted adventure with meaningful progression, strategic combat, and a compelling setting that leaves a lasting impression. Ganymede Games demonstrates considerable ambition with its debut title, delivering an experience that feels thoughtfully designed and confident in its identity. Players looking for a narrative-focused game that blends strategic decision-making with role-playing elements will find plenty to appreciate beneath Wolf Prime's ominous skies. Rating: 7/10
