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.

Liminal Shift offers a plenty of original Backrooms levels to explore, each interpreted through art to evoke a unique sense of tension, realism, and the feeling of being lost in liminal spaces. Will you manage to escape the Backrooms? Or could it be that life within the Backrooms is more peaceful than your normal existence?
Note: Liminal Shift features unsettling enclosed spaces and themes of getting lost in liminal environments, which may cause distress for players with claustrophobia or a fear of disorientation.

Dieses Spiel ist super schön gestaltet und der Vibe ist einfach krass. Ich bin sowieso schon ein großer Fan von "liminal places" in allen Formen, daher kann ich es total empfehlen. Vor allem wenn man einfach nur erkunden und ab und zu ein paar Rätsel lösen möchte damit man weiterkommt ;D
Schöne Grafik, interessante Orte zum Erkunden. In manchen Leveln gibt es etwas mehr Grusel mit kleinen Rätseln. Wenn komplexere Objekte im Raum sind, laggt es etwas (zB Palmen oder wenn man auf dem Spielplatz in der Nacht bei Regen ist). Ansonsten sind die einzelnen Abschnitte gleichzeitig verwirrend und überschaubar, ich musste oft fast vollständig die Map erkunden, bis ich den Ausgang gefunden habe, von daher sehr gut gemacht.

Absolute Cinema of a walking sim, New episode is gonna be crazy, i like monsters that don't attack, but just jump scare, 8.2/10
8/10 Another great Backrooms game, but not perfect. This one emphasizes the Poolrooms and Playrooms the most and is very fun to go through. The environments are detailed, even on low settings, and are fun to explore. It isn't as long as some other backrooms games, but it isn't as short as a lot of them either, kinda a perfect middle ground. The maps are a bit on the small side, but even with that you can miss quite a few areas if you go left instead of right at times. Same with achievements. It does get a couple points off for me, however. Mostly, it is just DARK. It is very hard to see in this game and I don't know why they didn't give us a flashlight until after the game is over (Episode 2). It is also memory demanding. It actually crashed a couple times due to using all the memory on my PC, so just be aware. Overall, this is a solid Backrooms game, even if not the absolute best one it is still worth checking out if you are a fan. Bonus points if you take an edible beforehand.
Ce jeu parle des backrooms. Jusqu'à là, on est d'accord. Mais oubliez tout de suite le côté "horreur" des backrooms, car il n'y a pas de pression, ni de stress envers quel ennemi ou piège car il n'y en a pas. On pourrait considérer ce jeu comme étant une "simulation" des backrooms, qui se rapproche d'ailleurs plus de "liminal space" avec une sauce backrooms. Son gros point fort c'est vraiment sa beauté et ses graphismes. C'est gràce à ça que l'ambiance y est un peu présente. Après, je dois avouer que je m'attendais à un minimum d'action ou quoi mais non. (bon après je dois avouer que je n'ai à aucun moment lu la description, j'suis un peu un con mdr) Mais bref, je me suis un peu ennuyé dessus car ce n'était pas ce à quoi je m'attendais et il est un peu court mais azy il est beau donc on va dire que ça passe
Loved this game: perfect for liminal spaces games lovers. No monster chasing you or stupid ass puzzles. The only few cons: many rooms and ideas for the poolrooms levels copiate da altri giochi come POOLS, Dreamcore, Liminalcore; too little general settings customization; VHS effect is cool but the text and static effects are too big and annoying; walking and running speed is way too slow compared to other games (not a big deal tho considering completing the game only takes 4½/5 hours). Overall HUGE W game, hope to see more levels in the future.
It's an interesting liminal horror game. The game looks great; it catches that Backroom's atmosphere and sounds good. I have to say that some levels were pretty uneven. Some of them were really straightforward, and some were tedious to get through. The atmosphere is great but when you backtrack and try to find a way, the atmosphere is slowly getting killed.
Средний представитель такого жанра, вроде и всё хорошо, но локации очень запутанны, от чего идёт растягивание геймплея, но может для кого это и плюс.
Antes de recomendarlo, leed esto para poder jugar bien. Este tipo de juegos abusan mucho de NO PODER CORRER para alargar su vida útil. Sinceramente a este juego no le hacia falta que pusieran al personaje a andar porque tiene buenos graficos y te detienes si o si a observar el entorno. Bien PARA PODER JUGAR DECENTEMENTE y no morirte de asco andando como una tortuga, recomiendo que os pongais el Cheat Engine y activeis la opcion del Speedhack a una velocidad de x2 (yo lo jugue a x3 y va mas fluido al correr) es la unica manera de no morirse de asco andando 100 metros. PROS: -Buenos entornos, muy trabajados y detallados. Te quedaras viendolos un ratito seguro. -Musica ambiente y sonidos para mantenerte en tensión muy buenos. -Dos finales diferentes y un nivel extra de "terror" a medias que esta muy bien por los puzles. -En general es buen juego. CONTRAS: -Andas muuuuuuy despacio y eso puede sacar de quicio o molestar a los jugadores porque esta hecho así a proposito para que el juego dure más. -A pesar de los niveles, el juego se hace corto. Lo recomiendo solo si te gustan los Backrooms porque si que sabe sacarle el jugo a lo Liminal. PERO ponte lo de aumentar la velocidad o facilmente te moriras del asco.
Buen juego, similar a Pools y Liminalcore.
