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.

I don't have anything inherently negative to say about this, I'm generally speaking a sucker for adventure games, I specifically tend to lean more sci-fi. Huge fan of Mass Effect, if this was more serious and had a darker theme I'd be heavily invested. Though as it stands it may take me a hot minute before I get around to revisiting it, for whatever it's worth though? I did enjoy it, the experience was moderately positive, I'd probably give this game a solid 6/10 as an honest point of view. The plot certainly had my attention, the exploration was fun, I love the upgrade system, dogfights were a bit annoying, the aliens were somewhat off putting and the lack of a direction is a bit of a hit and miss, I know some people like the concept of being thrown into a huge world and figuring it out on their own, but I prefer some direction. (Maybe I'm misremembering things, if so I apologize).
An excellent recreation of Star Control 2. A Trip down memory lane in the best possible way
God that was a great joy to play!
Redoing these older games is great. I don't now how hard it is, but they should do StarFlight 2 as well :)
Random words that do not make any sense. 100 year old machine translation. So the game is unplayable as you have no idea what some buttons mean or you do not even get the meaning of some things because the translation is unusable. Best part... you can not even change the language. So: maybe for some people who are lucky enough to play that in the original language a nice game - for the majority: not able to even try or tell because they did not want to spend 5 bucks to use a modern translation AI.
фигня
A competent modernization of the Star Control 2 formula.
It has the feel of Star Control II with less whimsy but a lot more quality of life improvements. Graphics are much nicer as well.
