Prices
Each in the currency that store quoted — not converted: the gap between two rows is the publisher's pricing, not an exchange rate.
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 23 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 14 places towards #1, and the 2,420 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.

很经典很oldschool的解密游戏。难度很高，体量很大，最后攀爬巴别塔的设计更是性感
[h2]Puzzles[/h2] They start slow (as usual) and get more and more difficult in a nice pace. There is a significant number of puzzles as far as I can tell (I estimate around 90 if the locked content follows the same pattern as the one I already unlocked). [h2]Storyline[/h2] It is an interesting premise that makes you think about somewhat deep topics. It really surprised me how the game is constructed and how they chose to let the player interact with the story. [spoiler]All hail CMD!![/spoiler] [h2]Graphics[/h2] To be expected for this type of game (and release year). I recommend you adjust your brightness/contrast/saturation/etc before you start playing as the game might be a bit too bright. Overall, great game that I recommend to all puzzle games enjoyers.

This game was great, and the sequel is even better. Only minor complaints about this game: - Puzzle difficulty ramped up to be a little too difficult for my smooth brain towards the end. - Story started off intriguing, but by the end its like "yeah yeah I get it, can we finish up now?" However overall this game is great and I would consider Talos one of the best puzzle series of all time.

I've 100% completed this game 3 times now, coming back to it once every 3+ years. It's re-playable after the game becomes a memory to you, because the puzzles are mostly forgotten while offering a little less challenge the next time, but a challenge none-the-less. The music and atmosphere is reflection inducing and calming and everything is done at your own pace. The only thing that seems could have been better is the terminal interactions with Milton. The multiple choice responses are forced and not reflective of what my own answers would be, despite the intention of the interaction clearly being to cause introspection within the player, not a character of a story.
First off, theres a huge issue with motion sickness. It has an entire sections of settings dedicated just for that. Second, it is poorly optimized. Granted, my setup is not the best, but I can run Baldurs Gate 3, yet not this game even on lowest settings. Third, for this being a puzzle game, why is the first hurdle a timing check on if you can set a disabler down fast enough so some angry robot ball doesnt kill you? Thats not what puzzle is supposed to be about.
Fun with great puzzles!
plein de puzzle de difficulté croissante, dans un univers poétique, ce jeu vaut le coup !
你是想在虛擬世界裡永生，還是不顧神的阻撓和反對尋找心中的真相呢？ 如果違背了和神的契約，你會害怕，忌憚神會發怒並摧毀你所擁有的一切麼？
A challenging yet extremely rewarding game. You'll be throwing your fist in the air out of celebration. 9/10
