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 2,400 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.

好玩
Such a great game!
A very good game overall if you're into games like Wall World and Dome Keeper, Main difference is that this one has worker management as a core gameplay mechanic where those other games you control a single unit. My main complaint is that it does get grindy and that in higher difficulties it becomes a bit slow, and I wish I could speed it up (even more) with an option to return the speed to normal automatically at the beginning of the night, that or auto digging for miners as a QOL buff, where they prioritize certain minerals, perhaps as an upgrade even.
游玩压力太大 debuff从一开始就常驻存在 不分难度每关都有 合约的达成条件很多也太苛刻 总之就是从第一把游戏之后全是折磨 还有游戏也不知道是不是优化问题 总感觉卡卡的 有丢帧的感觉 很难受 试了一晚上完全无法快乐游玩 一丁点爽点都不存在.... 补充一下 有个部门的选项里同样每个角色都有加成和相对应的debuff 别的游戏里大后期或终局的设计这游戏从一开始就存在 各种地方各种恶心.
还算有趣的游戏机制(探矿-资源管理-防守),各种星球、平台、部门和专家也都算各有特色。工人的微操较为困难所以经常一个落石/冰块就撸死一串,这方面希望改进。另外晚上的时间偏长,即使建立较完美的防御系统了也还是得慢慢等一波一波的出现吗,耗时太长略影响体验。
