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 · Poland over the last 30 days: the 21 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 12 places towards #1, and the 2,501 moves with no price cut behind them went 1 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.

Great game and solid story.
guhhhh . guhhhhhh. so awesome... top 3 puzzles to boggle the mind these puzzles were genuinely satisfying and im just so in love with the compassion in this game for people. in a world where numbers are being used to decide how to 'fix' people, this game screams that there is no perfect solution to avoid all of the pain in life and you need to forgive yourself and you can find out your own way to live outside of what is expected of you. genuinely such a piece of art i loved every second of this game

wow
The minute I finished the demo I instantly knew i needed to download this game. Many of the puzzles were challenging but extremely rewarding, and the game does a great job of pointing you in the right direction to be able to solve them. The story that unfolded was intriguing and deeply emotional (which I loved). The heavy moments did not miss in making the player feel deep unease, sadness, or fear. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE play this game. Worth my money and more also I LOVE YOU MAXINE SOUNDER !!!!
Easily one of the best indie-horror experiences of 2026. I think that this game builds an amazing atmosphere, coupled with great pacing and story telling with puzzles that really make you think outside the box. The combination of narrative elements combined with retro-PC knowhow really creates an experience unrivaled to others in this genre. This game ranks up there with one of the best interactive narrative story-games I've played.
I've only just completed up to the beginning of the last third of the game, but I can already say that this is probably one of if not the best takes in the entire "PC Desktop" genre of games I've ever played.
super compelling... and frustrating... but ultimately very rewarding
What an incredible game! Few of the puzzles are so tricky I had to go take a lap. Cannot wait to see what's next for the team behind this!
jogão, um dos jogos mais diferentes que eu joguei, não vou mentir, pesquisei um pouco em walktrough, mas oq eu entendi dos puzzles, e a historia, e como é contada é muito maneiro
I don't quite know how to put into words how I feel about this game. In short, it met and exceeded everything I was expecting to find out of an analog horror game and I feel a black hole forming in my heart desperately searching for something similar. With a great deal more content then you'd traditionally find in similar games, you will not find yourself losing "the plot". This game does an excellent job of balancing its puzzles and having them match the story-telling every step of the way. If I could erase my memory, and play this again, I would in a heartbeat. As it stands now, I simply just won't shut up about this and I look forward to seeing what these creators work on next.
