S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl tells a story about survival in the Zone – a very dangerous place, where you fear not only the radiation, anomalies and deadly creatures, but other S.T.A.L.K.E.R.s, who have their own goals and wishes.

Each in the currency that store quoted — not converted: the gap between two rows is the publisher's pricing, not an exchange rate.
14 of 15 markets; the rest we haven't asked for this title, not markets where it is unavailable.
Availability
We put this game to every storefront we collect. A market that answered not sold has told us something about the game; a market we never asked has not, and the two are never drawn the same.

Having played Metro this feels like that game but without the allies. I guess this inspired Metro but man it doesn't feel like it carries the game at all by itself knowing Metro exists. Quick save & Quick load game until you win. Would have preferred to have a lot of mutant enemies but it's mostly soldiers so it feels like playing Counter Strike with AI where you can save and load.
One of my favorite games of all time. This game still looks pretty good as of today, which is NOT something that you can say for a lot of other open world games of the era. The ambiance is still unmatched to this day. Gameplaywise, it surely has aged a lot worse. The gunplay feels unresponsive and collecting artefacts was vastly improved in the rest of the trilogy. The fact that the game doesn't features timed autosaves is also something to keep in mind. it's still incredibly worthy of your time and money in 2026 if you can pass through those hurdle.

14 on sale1 answered “not sold”0 we did not ask
The 1 “not sold” market is read from the Steam price pass of Sep 7: that day the store answered for this game elsewhere and gave no price there. The 14 priced markets are the same rows as the table above — each the latest price we hold, dated here when it is older than that pass. The 0 marked “not asked” were not put to this store at all — either it has no storefront there or we do not collect it yet, and neither is a statement about the game. A refusal is a refusal on one day; a store can list a title again tomorrow.
