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 Sep 1 → 0/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.

got a game over on the first level. i believe this is what they call a "skill issue"
感谢玩主小小虫的受难日，成功让我有了挑战这游戏的想法，目前还在普通结局的路上受难中 打完了，还是正经评价两句，这游戏难度确实还是有些高，但真没到魔界村和忍者蛙的那种程度，全游戏真正的难点也就是那打滑得要命的手感和某些个只有一次机会的隐藏道具，建议先去普通模式多背版再挑战，这游戏一没有重复刷小怪二没有时间限制，在红白机一众噩梦之中已经算一股清流了 https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3645558102

Gimmick! is my second favorite Famicom game (alas, we live in a world where Super Mario Bros. 3 exists) and includes one of the greatest soundtracks of all time, which I say with zero exaggeration... but $15 is FELONIOUS for what is essentially a gussied up ROM with some admittedly nice bonus features. Consider coughing up five dollars on a sale (I spent three); otherwise just emulate it.
It's the NES/Famicom Platformer Gimmick!. It was never released in English, only in Japan and parts of Scandinavia. If you want a legal way to play this old game, this is it. My only gripe is that while they include sans of the original Japanese and Scandinavian manuals, it would've been nice to create an English version of a manual, otherwise you might end up spending more than a few minutes trying to figure out how to play
u can probably play this for free but this is a good port for sure :) has a speedrun mode and an easier mode as well! if ONLY there was a level maker omggggggg i'd give the devs all the head for that idec if they're all ancient and wrinkly now
i can't speak for the emulation or whatever, but i did like the options (rewind, menu for save slots, etc) for what it's worth. i didn't really notice any particular issue that detracted from my experience. however. with that said. what a devilishly hard game. i got fooled by the aesthetics and did not expect gimmick to be what it is. it's a little tech marvel being an end of life NES game, but i did not expect the level of difficulty on display here. straight up devil's work. go in with the proper expectations. for most people this is a "on sale" game.
The best game ever, now re-released. Go buy it, even if the emulation is okay at best.
Пацаны, не играйте в Гиммика. Я с ним уже два кинескопа посадил
EU GOSTEI DESSE JOGO ELE É DE 1992 EU TENHO A ROM PRA JOGAR NO NESTOPIA EMULADOR ELE TEM SPEEDRUN MODE E CONQUITAS E EDC E TEM MUSICAS BOAS HMMM E RECOMENDO JOGAR ESSE JOGO
