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 Jul 24 → 0.14/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 25 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 10 places towards #1, and the 2,413 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.

Reviews
I originally picked up this game simply because it was a cheap roguelike with good controller support. Relative to that baseline, I was impressed by this game. The game has a unique mechanic where darkness proceeds from left to right, devouring the land, forcing you to constantly flee. It has an anime theme, and soundtracks are inspired by Super Metroid. Although it may appear simple at first, as you dig deeper you start discovering more of what it has to offer. It's got some rough edges, but the game is quirky and the rough edges add to the charm. Clearly a labor of love.
This is one of those games where you'd need several hundred hours to learn the ins and outs by yourself, and even with online guides, it still took me several dozen hours to get gud, and if you don't know what you're doing going in, you're all but guaranteed to hit a dead end and lock yourself out of the Plus Ending, so uh...yeah. As charming as it is infuriating, as tragic as it is quirky... Am I glad I bought and played this old-school RPG? Yes. Would I recommend it to others? Reluctantly, assuming you save compulsively, can somewhat tolerate unfair game mechanics, and can afford to backtrack at least a dozen+ hours like I had to.

Es uno de los juegos que más horas he echado, vale mucho más de lo que cuesta. Un Roguelike que se hizo mucho antes que estuvieran de moda, variado pero a la vez sencillo.
Drugs saved me.
無限に遊べちゃうのでお勧めしません。 時間泥棒の罪で逮捕します。
like the story, a remake could be great imo :p
Easy recommend, wild game, very fun. Made me want to pick up a mystery dungeon game again!
『闇』の進行が早すぎて少しでも時間のかかることをしているとすぐに強制中断が入ります。 ダンジョンを見つけたら隅々まで探索したくなる人や目に入ったアイテムはすべて拾いたい人には向いていません。そんなことをしていれば『闇』に飲まれてゲームオーバーになります。
