Prices
Each in the currency that store quoted — not converted: the gap between two rows is the publisher's pricing, not an exchange rate.
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.
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.

Jeu mignon mais très peu passionnant, on recommence toujours la même histoire en boucle et le jeu n'est qu'en anglais... ;-(
You can't control anything. just point-and-click game. And a boring one at that
Well. Short game. Finished it under 2h. I know this was going to be a surival game, not hard core but still, way to easy. Cute game. more cuter dogs, nice landscapes and places. But yea. just wished it was longer, like much longer for a survival game. Usually i dont say things like this. But with this game, glad i got it for free. Because not sure it was worth paying for lass then 2h. of a game.

14 of 15 markets; the rest we haven't asked for this title, not markets where it is unavailable.
14 on sale1 answered “not sold”0 we did not ask
The 1 “not sold” market is read from the Steam price pass of Aug 21: 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.

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 2,402 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.

good dog
[b][i] The Red Lantern [/i][/b] is a relaxing adventure game with a beautiful art style and a peaceful atmosphere that makes exploring the Alaskan wilderness beautiful. The visuals are excellent, creating an experience that feels cozy and emotional. Taking care of your sled dogs and progressing through the journey gives the game plenty of charm. However, the gameplay can become a bit boring over time, as many activities start to feel repetitive and the pacing is quite slow. Some runs don't offer enough variety to keep every moment engaging. Even though, the game is still worth trying for players who appreciate atmospheric games and don't mind a more calm experience.
przynajmniej nie rpg
Jako zapřisáhlý milovník psů jsem k The Red Lantern přistupoval s naivní představou, že mě čeká idylická projížďka zasněženou Aljaškou, při které budu převážně drbat chlupatá břicha. Titul mě ovšem velice rychle vyvedl z omylu. Jistě, samotné sestavování vlastní smečky pěti unikátních hafanů, z nichž každý má svou nezaměnitelnou osobnost a příběh, je naprosto k nezaplacení. Z relativně klidného výletu se ale záhy vyklube nesmlouvavý rogue-lite survival. Místo zenového kochání se polární září jsem tak u obrazovky prožíval regulérní infarktové stavy hraničící s panikou, kdykoliv jen trochu hrozilo, že by moji čtyřnozí svěřenci mohli mít hlad, omrznout nebo se nedejbože dostat do křížku s místním medvědem. Zcela běžně jsem se ocital v situacích, kdy jsem sám na saních omdléval vyčerpáním, ale poslední kus uloveného masa jsem s láskou odevzdal svému oblíbenému tahounovi. Je to sice nádherný, ale pro každého pejskaře místy docela emocionálně vyčerpávající zážitek, který dokonale prověřil nejen mé manažerské schopnosti při správě zásob, ale především mé nervy.
“The Red Lantern” is an okay, but flawed experience. The story is fairly shallow, and in terms of gameplay, the rogue-lite progression system is likewise shallow. The Red Lantern's frozen trails of Alaska did not offer enough variety in it’s procedurally generated events. As a result, the game quickly becomes a matter of "Which event will I see again?" It’s enrapturing visual style and atmospheric music cannot alleviate such gameplay concerns. The game takes 2-3 hours to complete, and there is not many meaningful elements that encourage repeat playthroughs. I love the dog sled team-mechanic and playing the runs again and again only reinforced that. But the rogue-style gameplay does not stay fresh all the way through and gets a bit boring and repetitive.
cozy and fun
A chill, heartwarming cinematic experience.
