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): 3.29/day in the week to Aug 29 → 7.57/day in the week after.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 4.5/day in the week to Jul 19 → 7.71/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 24 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 9 places towards #1, and the 2,419 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
Welcome to Phonopolis.
A new puzzle adventure hand-crafted by Amanita Design, the studio behind Machinarium, Creaks, Samorost and more.
In the dystopian city of Phonopolis, life is orchestrated by omnipresent loudspeakers that dictate every aspect of people’s existence. Citizens, bound by the authoritarian Leader's commands, work in unison to achieve his grand vision. Soon, the Absolute Tone—a tone so strong that it would strip every citizen of their humanity forever—will be heard…
By coincidence or perhaps by fate, young dustman Felix becomes the only per son to consciously recognize the threat. Now, he must try to stop the Leader from indefinitely making every citizen a mindless servant. Loosely inspired by the works of Karel Čapek and George Orwell, the story of Phonopolis explores themes of social manipulation and individualism, but keeps the overall experience playful and light-hearted.
With Felix becoming immune to the commands, you’ll be able to take advantage of the loudspeakers and use them to solve puzzles involving other characters. Other times, you will interact with the cardboard environment in surprising, often unexpected ways—turn walls, shuffle floors, control various machinery or tear paper curtains. Each puzzle is carefully integrated into the world and presents a different challenge.
Metaphorically referring to the utopian, totalitarian model of society, Phonopolis is a city built of actual cardboard. Capturing the nostalgic charm of classic stop-motion films, every piece of any building, every character, and every frame of any smoke or flame is hand-painted on a piece of paper, then digitized for use in the game’s 3D world.
The art style is strongly influenced by avant-garde artistic trends of the interwar period such as constructivism, futurism, and suprematism, and their societal impact as a tool of propaganda. The distinct visuals come to life with music from Tomáš Dvořák aka Floex, composer of soundtracks for Machinarium and Samorost 3.

proper Artwork with clever puzzles from Amanita design again, well done!
Very cute and fun puzzle game, I love how the game is divided into scenes and you can go back to replay any of them at any time.
This game oozes with charm. ✨ Spectacular art direction, sound design and minimalist yet excellent voice acting abound. It presents a vivid lived-in world of dystopian whimsy that charms from the first line of dialogue delivery to the last puzzle piece turn. The puzzles are gorgeous Rube Goldberg'ian machines that make one think outside the box, yet still follow the rules established by the world of the game. Kudos to all involved.
I love everything Amanta does and have purchased every game! I wish this had a bit more puzzles and obviously longer, but LOVED the art, music, and story from this game.
Banger!
Beautifuly animated, beautifuly composed, full of soul, charachter and love. Another gem from Amanita <3
J'ai ADORÉ ce jeu ! Étant plus jeune, j'avais déjà été bluffée par Machinarium, mais Phonopolis m'a tout de même grandement surprise. La direction artistique est totalement folle, les musiques sont géniales et l'univers est très bien écrit. Les puzzles sont très bien réussis : ni trop complexes, ni trop simples. J'ai dû me creuser les méninges plus d'une fois, et c'est vraiment ce que j'adore avec ce genre de jeu. L'univers totalitaire est également très bien réussi, avec une bonne dose d'humour, tout en proposant une morale assez profonde.
