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): 1.57/day in the week to Aug 10 → 8.86/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 2,404 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.

I really enjoyed this instalment of the Rusty Lake series, but trying to play it as quickly as possible kind of burnt me out towards the end. The puzzles are fun as always, I'm surprised how most of them are still unique even though I've already played through quite a lot of hours of Rusty Lake. The set up for this game is just as fun as Seasons and Rusty Lake Hotel. This time we are introduced to the van der Boom family through the family tree. There are 33 different scenarios to play out to get to know all the family members and their offspring. It's not a Rusty Lake game if it doesn't contain a lot of shocking moments as well. This way of having 33 scenarios makes it fun because they're snappy. You can complete each of them in about 5 minutes (if I did the math right), especially if you use a guide when you get stuck like me. This time around I got stuck quite a lot. The flow of Theatre in Cube Escape is still my favourite, but this one is really good when it comes to storytelling. I did not play through More Roots because I didn't feel like going back through the timeline. 7/10

好玩
难
game is good, very enjoyable, the story is straight cinema, although its not as good relative to other games rusty lake came up with like cube escape but still, i highly recommend anyone play this game.
鏽湖系列中，論劇情描繪跟分量來說是個人最喜歡的一款。 主軸圍繞著范德姆家族的好幾代人展開，最終結局令人唏噓。 尤其之後補了地鐵繁花更是感觸良多，
补票，好玩，墓地那个野生坟墓是卡珊德拉的吗？
