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): 0.71/day in the week to Jul 20 → 0.17/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.

Playtime: Mudborne will take most players 20-30 hours to finish (more if you're a completionist!
Mudborne is being created by ellraiser, one half of the indie-dev studio, TNgineers. A spiritual successor of sorts to APICO, Mudborne instead focuses on genetic manipulation and generational puzzles to create and discover all sorts of frog species, with experimentation being encouraged.
It originally started as a gamejam entry for FletchFest 2023, with the theme of ‘pond’. Ell had always joked about ‘what if APICO but frog?’ before, and this seemed a perfect opportunity to play with the concept and how to take things in a new direction.

A portion of the money made will be donated towards national and international amphibian, wetlands, and environmental charities to help keep our little green friends and their homes happy and healthy <3
You can learn more about TNgineer's charitable efforts on the website.

Me gusta un monton aunque las geneticas no son muy faciles , menos mal que al menos para las fuentes la solcion esta en la iwki
Very well thought out game, from the in-depth in-game "wiki" to the UI, to the nearly cryptic way to progress (at least IMO). Absolutely scintillating and cute. Also I love the cute froggies May the frog guide my ribbit.
10/10 Cute frogs! Game is about 8 times larger than expected! Chill! Being able to teleport is great! Cool game!

Frogs frogs frogs. I think its a lovely game where you breed frogs, to get all the frogs you need to restore the pondworld. If you like frogs this is a good game to enjoy them some more.

i ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ love frogs
Not a game where i expected to find multiple corpses
I absolutely loved playing Mudborne! The combination of exploration, puzzle and cute frogs makes this a perfect game for me. While waiting for the release of Snacktorio, I started the Mudborne-Demo to pass the time. But then I got hooked immediately and bought the full game(which is very cheap for what it is!) I completed the game with all of the achievements in under a week. The only thing that annoyed me was how some things are sorted. You can auto sort inventory and chest, which is great. However, I don't understand the sorting order. Some things seem to be ordered alphabetically, some seem to be random. It is worst for mushrooms. They are in different order in the Encyclopedia, in chests and in machines. All in all, 9/10 (10/10 if mushroom sorting was consistent) would recommend
awesome game for you filthy frog and swamp lovers. its similar to stardew valley with cute little puzzles. i love the color scheme and overall game mechanics. you can go as deep as you want and it feels endless. can't wait to spend more hours playing in the mud
