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): 0/day in the week to Jul 23 → 0.14/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 2,400 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.

Reviews
Das Konzept und das Gameplay sind an sich ganz cool. Das Setting im Leuchtturm ist ebenfalls gut. Doch leider gibt es nur an wenigen Stellen gute Atmosphäre und gute Scares. Das schlimmste ist allerdings, dass das Spiel nach etwa 1 Stunde einen super plötzlichen Turn nimmt, der absolut random ist, keinen Sinn macht und dir vor dem abrupten Spielende noch 10 Minuten quatschiges Gameplay bietet. Das alles kommt so plötzlich und unnötig, dass es das vorher okaye Spiel komplett blöd enden lässt. Wäre es auf eine normale Weise geendet, hätte ich es empfohlen, aber so war es die meiste Zeit leider relativ boring, nur um am dann richtig mies zu enden
Прикольная игра, было бы интересно узнать сюжет или его раскрытие, а так геймплей прикольный, да и моментами пугает.
