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.
Too few observations to say whether a discount moves this store's chart at all: across the last 30 days Steam · Top Sellers · Poland has just 18 day-to-day chart moves that followed a price cut, against 2,498 that did not. We are publishing the count instead of a direction — 20 is the fewest we will draw a conclusion from, and price collection outside the United States began on 6 August 2026.
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.

I really enjoyed this game! The puzzles could be difficult at times but it was satisfying to figure them out! The story, the retro computer graphics, and soundtrack will all keep you invested until the end.
Je recommande très fortement Desktop Explorer aux amateurs de réflexion. À la base, j’avais acheté le jeu uniquement parce que je voulais faire un bon jeu de casse-tête, mais je me suis surpris à vraiment apprécier son histoire, à faire des suppositions sur ce qu’il se passait et surtout à vouloir continuer pour avoir les réponses à mes questions. Le gameplay est vraiment intéressant et arrive surtout à ne pas devenir redondant. Les énigmes sont très variées et le jeu mélange plusieurs façons de jouer, donc on n’a jamais vraiment cette impression de refaire toujours la même chose en boucle juste pour avancer, et ça c’est vraiment appréciable. Les OST, sans être des chefs-d’œuvre non plus, sont très sympathiques et accompagnent bien le jeu. Mon plus gros reproche serait surtout le manque de langues disponibles. Je trouve ça dommage que des personnes ayant du mal avec l’anglais puissent passer à côté du jeu uniquement à cause de ça. J’ai honnêtement du mal à lui trouver beaucoup d’autres défauts. Les énigmes sont bonnes, intéressantes et, la plupart du temps, si on se retrouve bloqué, c’est surtout parce qu’on a manqué un détail, d’observation ou d’attention. Si vous aimez les jeux de réflexion et les énigmes, je le recommande sans hésiter.
Fantastic game! There's a good story, good puzzles, and some very interesting mechanics.
Every evil application always has a desktop helper... Really makes you think huh
good game about computers and regrets
A short game, but well worth the expense. A great experience which not only enraptured me with its puzzles, but also its story. Several points I thought I had it all figured out, only to be blindsided by what I shouldve seen to begin with, but assumed instead.
