Prices
Each in the currency that store quoted — not converted: the gap between two rows is the publisher's pricing, not an exchange rate.
Availability
We put this game to every storefront we collect. A market that answered not sold has told us something about the game; a market we never asked has not, and the two are never drawn the same.
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
Oh boy, this game is not for me in the slightest. I regret playing through what amount that I did as it left me in an incredibly bad mood afterwards. I enjoyed the exposition. I tend to find Shu Takumi's characters completely insufferable in a good way. I love how EVERYONE is insufferable to a point where it's as if I'm watching molecules bounce around. In the Ace Attorney series at least, the characters would be revealed to have legitimate depth and would manifest into surprisingly meaningful commentary on interpersonal morality. It's just missing in Ghost Trick, unfortunately. It takes all the insufferable-ness and tries to normalize it to an aggravating degree. None of the characters have any legitimate depth. The majority of what all the characters say are just reactions to what they have immediately learned, or even worse, irrelevant outbursts over something random. This is honestly fine if any of the characters would just stop for a moment and ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ introspect over the matter, but none of the characters seem to be written with a brain. I read a summary for the remainder of the story I refused to play through and I think it would have legitimately pissed me off had I "worked" for it. Sorry, I just really don't understand the rage around this game.

14 of 15 markets; the rest we haven't asked for this title, not markets where it is unavailable.
14 on sale1 answered “not sold”0 we did not ask
The 1 “not sold” market is read from the Steam price pass of Aug 30: that day the store answered for this game elsewhere and gave no price there. The 14 priced markets are the same rows as the table above — each the latest price we hold, dated here when it is older than that pass. The 0 marked “not asked” were not put to this store at all — either it has no storefront there or we do not collect it yet, and neither is a statement about the game. A refusal is a refusal on one day; a store can list a title again tomorrow.

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.

추리 게임이 아닙니다. 추리요소는 다 떠먹여주고요, 핵심은 순발력을 요구하는 골드버그장치 운용 게임이에요.
[h2]Ghost Trick: Phantom Detective | 9.1/10 | A brilliant mystery puzzle game with style, soul, and one of the best story payoffs in the genre[/h2] [h3]Story & Mystery[/h3] The story is easily the heart of the game. It starts with a simple hook — solving your own murder as a ghost — and slowly turns into something much bigger, warmer, stranger, and more emotional. The twists are smart, the pacing is excellent, and the final payoff genuinely feels earned. [h3]Puzzle Design[/h3] The “ghost trick” mechanic is wonderfully original. Possessing objects, manipulating the environment, and rewinding the last four minutes before someone’s death creates a puzzle structure that feels tense but fair. The best puzzles make me feel like I am not just solving a room, but rewriting fate itself. [h3]Characters[/h3] The cast is full of personality. Every character, even the weirdest or smallest one, feels memorable in that very Shu Takumi way: funny, dramatic, strange, and surprisingly heartfelt. And yes, Missile is absolutely unforgettable. [h3]Visuals & Animation[/h3] The art direction is fantastic. The HD remaster makes the sharp silhouettes, bold colors, and incredibly expressive animations look even better. It has a style that still feels fresh, theatrical, and instantly recognizable. [h3]Music & Atmosphere[/h3] The soundtrack is stylish, energetic, and full of mystery. Combined with the late-night setting and constant race against time, it gives the whole game a unique sense of urgency and charm. [h3]Minor drawbacks[/h3] [list] [*]Some puzzle solutions can feel a bit trial-and-error. [*]The game is fairly linear, so players looking for open-ended detective gameplay may find it guided. [*]A few dialogue sections can feel slightly long, even though the writing is usually excellent. [/list] [b]Score: 9.1/10[/b] [b]One-line recommendation: a unique, stylish, emotional puzzle mystery that deserves its cult-classic reputation and still feels special today.[/b]
シナリオ最高!前半は正直そんなにのめり込まなかったけど中盤から終わりまでは手が止まらなかったね!
Has Missile in it, on that merit alone it's a 10/10
我也喜欢观察人类错综复杂的关系
Buy the game. Buy it and play it. Or just buy it. Plot: 10/10 Music: 10/10 Character Design: 10/10 Puzzles: 10/10 It's a hidden masterpiece, all your friends will (and SHOULD) think you have elite taste.
[spoiler] 猫猫狗狗大冒险 [/spoiler] 喜欢导弹//(ㄒoㄒ)// 解密不难,[spoiler] 不过确实没有想到毛线帽挂在那里就可以替换子弹了O_o [/spoiler],好想好想知道'我'是谁,然后就一下子玩到了大结局捏,但终究是没有猜到台灯是谁,也是反转反转再反转了。 拼图好玩\^o^/ 一些人物的设定比如走路姿势、跳舞等等很有趣>▽< 失败后重复且不能跳过的解谜过程会让人心烦●﹏● 希望二周目(时间未定)的时候可以一次过然后就会有全成就\(0.0)/
剧情一波三折,玩着还是挺上头的,不过中途有些关卡解密过于电波以至于要重复很多次试错才能过关。
it is criminal that there isn't a second one.
