Prices
The United States storefront in every case, so this compares stores and not countries.
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.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 26 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 7 places towards #1, and the 2,400 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 experienced the game as rather frustrating. The results of dialogues seem oddly specific. Choices that sounds roughly synonymous will lead to vastly differently results, with some outcomes requiring you to pick very specific choices at every step. I also don't enjoy if a dialogue choice made in an early chapter fully determines the outcomes of the final one.
Выбор диалогов влияет только на привкус безнадеги. Если любите эстетично пострадать под приятную музыку и ламповые пиксели - игра идеальна.

Branching path and replayability are the best things about the game. Music & visuals are simply excellent. Worldbuilding and writing is like it's always is with these kind of "story games" - a bag of excellent ideas with either really good or really bad execution. - More good than bad in this one though.
God I recently replayed the original for the third time and was finally able to get my hands on the Prelude. Amazing, very emotional and the music is on top as always. I just wish there was more, off course, it's one of my favorite games. It gave me that same panic like the original when you feel like you have to think so hard on every damn choice. So good. I'm gonna be thinking about this for years.
Очень, очень скучная вещь. Все также как в первой части красивый визуал и хорошее музыкальное сопровождение. И на этом все плюсы. В играх такого жанра необходим интересный сюжет и тексты. Тут этого нет от слова совсем. За историей персонажей наблюдать не интересно. Диалоги скучны до чертиков.
Очень жаль, что студия, создавшая эту игру, остановила свою работу, поскольку Tails Noir содержит в себе огромный потенциал. Соглашусь с комментариями о том, что Preludes – это больше про рефлексию, но как предыстория это отличная история в духе оригинальной игры, которая раскрывает лор уже знакомых персонажей.
I think this was more interesting than the first one, which focused on a detective story. This one is more about self-realization. I got stuck on the beginning part of Renee the journalist fox. I was supposed to rearrange the shelfs in a specific way, but had no idea what way it was supposed to be, So, the game would not progress. Point and click, pixalated, with a lot of dialogue to read and choose answers. I might have continued further if not for getting stuck so early. 40/100
Mi calificación: 6.5/10 Lo bueno La historia: es interesante como el Tails Noir original. Se ve que tiene una historia detrás y que hay más de fondo de lo que vemos. Arte: igual de bueno que el primero. Los escenarios son excelentes. Gameplay: es mejor que el primero. Aquí sí pueden llevar por diferentes caminos las decisiones que tomamos. Rejugabilidad: se puede volver a jugar para ver otros resultados tomando otras decisiones. Lo malo: Abandono: lo mismo que el primero. No importa que tan interesante sea el universo y la historia del juego jamás se va a expandir ni aclarar. Opciones de idioma: la verdad me da igual si está en inglés o en español, pero hay gente a la que no y menos al ser un juego donde se tiene que leer y entender bien lo que está pasando. No encontré una opción para ponerlo en español, el primero si la tenía. Bugs: en este si encontré un par pero nada grabe. Algunos errores de escritura en los textos, cargar las partidas guardadas manualmente a veces no disparaban los diálogos. Si es un mejor juego que el primero, pero la verdad se siente como que este y el primer Tails Noire pudieron ser parte de un solo juego y seguir con la dinámica de cuatro historias. Aún así me dió la sensación de que por más que se expliquen cosas que no se explican en el primero el juego no lleva a nada. Deja preguntas que nunca se van a responder. Es solo un vistazo de lo que pudo haber sido una buena saga de juegos y por eso no lo recomiendo.
Enjoyed it far more than the first game, although I wish it was a bit longer. I don't feel inclined to replay the game and try out the other paths, but it was fun while it lasted.
Triste que posiblemente nunca veamos la luz de Tails Noir (Antes Backbone) 2, o una respuesta a lo que quedo inconcluso del Preludio incluso... Simplemente una historia maravillosa, quien sea que la haya echo debe ser alguien reservado, alguien con el mismo o**** por la actualidad... y lo entiendo... es simplemente una obra de arte incomprendida... simplemente maravillosa
