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): 2/day in the week to Aug 23 → 4.57/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 24 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 9 places towards #1, and the 2,404 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.

se vuoi il mal di testa dopo poco tempo te lo consiglio assolutamente
muito bom
В целом что то новое но больше 10 часов не наиграть, слишком быстро наскучивает, хотя за свою цену вполне норм. Покупайте если хотите попробывать какой нибудь новый рогалик, но онли за скидку.

I do like this game, it is fun if you like games of strategy or if you are fond of chess. Things id like to see: The Computer/Opponent being able to place modified tiles of their very own. Difficulty or Modifier where the player can ONLY use certain pieces (Knight, Pawns, Bishops, ETC) Enemy effect to disable a random gambit for one game. Boss that swaps 2 random pieces from it's own and your current pieces every 2 rounds or so. Boss that forces you to wait 2 turns to use 1 or 2 of your pieces. Trampoline Tile that launches a enemy piece all the way to the back of the board of there is a unused tile on the enemy side. Maybe a option that'll allow the player to choose whatever theme they wanna hear in-game. I really like Kev Borclick's theme and i wanna hear it as i play...
el juego esta muy divertido pero las dificultades altas me parecen mal pensadas e injustas.
발라트로류 게임을 좀 가볍게 즐기는 스타일(높은 난이도를 골라깬다기 보단 그냥 매 런마다 내꼴리는데로 하는편) 인데 지금 딱 5.9시간 플레이한 내 입장에선 다소 낮은 평가에 비해 나름 재밌게 했음 점수를 많이 얻으면 이기는 게임이 아니라 기본적으로 기물을 최대한 보존하고 아껴써야하는 생존 플레이를 요구해서 이런류 게임치곤 은근 머리좀 써야됨 아쉬웠던 점은 유물과 같은 느낌의 갬빗으로 잘풀리는 루트가 거진 다 기물 복사밖에 없는 느낌이라 이 부분은 좀 그랬음 또 효과자체가 뭔가 애매해서 고르기 싫어지는 갬빗수도 꽤 있었음 그래도 생각보다 재밌게 했음, 이런류 게임 좋아하면 추천함
A good game for short play sessions and a little bit of brain training.
Sehr gut für Zwischendurch.
