Prices
Each in the currency that store quoted — not converted: the gap between two rows is the publisher's pricing, not an exchange rate.
Every market we collect.
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): 11.43/day in the week to Aug 29 → 21.57/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 23 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 14 places towards #1, and the 2,515 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.

Honestly one of the most creative games I've ever played. This has a lot more content than I was expecting it to, based on similarly advertised games. Puzzles are just difficult enough to be solvable, but feel like a genius once completing. Really incredible!
the way it freaked me out... i cant recommend it enough. 11/10
Played the demo first and immediately I knew I had to get this game. I would recommend this game from my grave. I enjoyed it so much the story, visuals, interactivity and music really brings it all together. And of course, I'm a sucker for puzzles so this was perfect to play!

之前正好刷到这个游戏的实况,看了个开头就觉得这游戏很有意思,应该自己体验。正好前几天打折就入了,通关后小小评价一下: 【优点】 挺还原90年代风格的电脑系统,代入感很强 谜题设计相当有趣 一点点剖开真相的恐怖感与悬疑感塑造得很好 很多事件都有具体日期,前后时间线很有条理(但是抓个虫,含剧透:[spoiler]Halibut章节的寻人网站上能看到Maxine出生日期1982-02-10,但Maxine在1996-05-22的时光笔记上写着“上个月,我的生日礼物……”,月份对不上[/spoiler] ) 中文本地化做得很好,玩下来很自然,没有什么违和感 【个人意见】 有些动画不能跳(例如时光笔记的翻页),体验会有点拖沓 感觉可以追加一个加载跳转时间节点的功能,方便通关后收集全成就,打二周目有点牢了( [spoiler]顺便希望“高塔”游戏可以补一个第2~6层的DLC,感觉Admin章节的玩法没有充分扩展开来[/spoiler]
Super fun to figure out, insane soundtrack, interesting lore. Spooky atmosphere. 5 stars
Again I'm in a tiny minority, but I honestly don't think this an overall good game. Remember how in Daniel Mullins' games, things become more deranged and more unique as you advance in the game? The story becomes more "out there" and the mechanisms become more varied and wacky? Well, here I've experienced the exact opposite. Things start out very intriguing and unique, and become more mundane and... sorry to say this... boring... as you advance. There are actually quite a bit of good puzzles in the game, but as you progress the gimmick-repetition goes to 11 (using the ideas from the first hour that felt novel then, and almost pointless 10 hours in) and out come Einstein's Riddle and the Bifid cipher and the "Is This Seat Taken" puzzle etc etc. Bottom line - starts strong, runs on fumes by the end. You might enjoy it, I almost resented it by the end.
Great mystery game with a plethora of fun puzzles and diverse gameplay
Very good
awesome sauce
One of the more unique games I've played, no idea what's happening in the story, last puzzle kinda sucks but whatever
