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, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 2.14/day in the week to Aug 25 → 3.14/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 2,402 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.
About
The legendary game where it all started. Kickstarting an award-winning series in style, Layers of Fear plunges you into a tale of madness and artistic compulsion as you take on the role of The Painter determined to complete his magnum opus at all costs.
As you roam the painter’s decaying home, the world warps to reflect his crumbling sanity. Memories blur into sinister visions, rooms twist into nightmares, and each discovery draws you closer to the truth behind his masterpiece – and the obsession that destroyed him.
Created by the modern-day masters of horror – Bloober Team – the original Layers of Fear is renowned for this immersive and tense atmosphere. Prepare for a haunting journey into the depths of the human psyche.
Psychedelic Horror – The unstable environment reacts to your fragile state of mind, reshaping itself when you look away.
Victorian Setting – Explore a game world inspired by iconic paintings, architecture and décor from the 19th century.
Original and Classic Art – Numerous pieces of original art and music flesh out the game’s storyline and its richly-detailed locations.

eu nunca fiquei com tanto Medo de olhar para trás kkkkkk pelo o que eu entendi ou a historia tem a ver com esquizofrenia ou obessão pura ou um fantasma atormentando a cabeça do protagonista agora o final não é bom e o puzzle do final do jogo é IRRITANTE e muita frustração meio que quebra a empolgação do jogo no geral é andar e toma susto ainda sim é um bom jogo mas não a preço cheio
It has a great story it's a suspenseful game with a fluid narrative

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 Sep 14: 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.

这款游戏在我心里完全称得上是艺术品。它和市面上大多数恐怖游戏截然不同,不靠突然的惊吓和无脑追逐制造恐惧,而是用层层递进的迷雾,让你永远猜不到下一秒会发生什么,真正营造出对未知的深层恐惧。 场景设计极具艺术感,很多细节都隐晦地传递出主角曾经经历创伤时的真实心境,每一处画面都把压抑、神秘又令人不安的氛围拉满,我特别沉迷这种氛围感。游戏里出现的钢琴曲,每一首都特别好听,营造出来的氛围和情绪我都超级喜欢。 解谜频率也刚刚好,不会过多打断节奏,也不会少到乏味,剧情也做得很有沉浸感,需要你一步步亲自探索,通过收集、阅读一封封信件,慢慢拼凑、揭开完整的故事线。整个游玩过程给了我极大的震撼,真心超级喜欢,强烈推荐!
[h1] Эта игра вам не просто хоррор... [/h1] [b] День добрый, читатели. Если вы не знаете о чем эта игра и хотите для себя понять, стоит ли она вообще свеч? Сейчас расскажу [/b] [u] О чем она❔ ( со спойлерами, аккуратнее) [/u] [code] А она о том, что вы играете за некого художника, который не хны бы хны, а очень знаменитый и востребованный, но в его жизни случились трагические обстоятельства. Если быть кратким, то произошел пожар, а в результате пожара жена художника получила серьёзные травмы, что надолго лишило её способности играть на пианино и изменило её внешность до неузнаваемости. Это трагическое событие вызвало ухудшение психического здоровья героя, сказалось на качестве его работ и привело к серии отказов от известных галерей. Его картины стали жестоки. В игре три концовки и от ваших действий зависит исход, ведь чем теплее воспоминания о прошлом, тем ярче выйдет настоящее. От этого зависит то, каков портрет вы нарисуете своей жены. Пожалуй главная концовка этой игры раскрывает одну очень хорошую мысль:" Признав свои ошибки—вы становитесь сильней, умней и мудрей, а если вы ворочите нос, думая, что вы лучше всех—то вы как никогда слеп. Ведь иногда мы не можем что либо изменить, но принять факт этого cможет далеко не каждый" [/code] [b] Это крутая игра и она далеко непросто психологический хоррор, способный напугать многих, но она и дает поводы задуматься, какими порой эгоистами мы можем быть в жизнях тех, кто нам искренне любим и дорог🖤. На этом все. [/u] [b] Оценка: 10/10 🔥 [/b]
очень атмосферный хоррор, но концовка немного разочаровала, ждал большего
Игра красива визуально, но геймплей уныл — это просто ходьба по коридорам с редким открытием дверей, взаимодействие с миром минимально. Сюжет подан слишком сюрреалистично и разрозненно, из-за чего происходящее непонятно, да и сам сюжет банален и не интересен. Cкримеры не выдерживают никакой критики, унылые, а иногда даже смешные. Игра искусственно затянута блужданием по одним и тем же локациям, а система концовок не спасает, но стоит отметить что после прохождения можно выбирать главы для перепрохождения. В итоге — красивый, но пустой проект, оставляющий чувство лёгкой скуки и недоумения, а не впечатление от драмы. 3/10
好玩,有几个场景我非常喜欢,节奏设计的非常好
原来是尿啊,还以为是吓出冷汗了。
Scary game
10/10. Отличная игра, если хотите добровольно ходить по дому, где архитектура ебанулась раньше вас.
