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 2,515 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.

Jak ktoś lubi zagadki to będzie ich mieć po dziurki w nosie, ale kuuuurka, nie to jest największą wartością tej gry. Pytania jakie stawia w trakcie, wątpliwości - top
No Comment, just playing for fun
On peut lui trouver des défauts de narration et lui reprocher des irrégularités dans la conception des énigmes mais il n'en reste pas moins que ce jeu est une master class. Le jeu est généreux aussi bien par ses écrits, par son ambiance que par ses nombreux easter eggs. Chapeau bas Cro team

It looks significantly better than the remake.
These puzzles are fun, although there were a few where i did need to rethink what i was doing or get some help, i think i may of found one or two that i completed using an alternitive unintended way lol.
This is my favorite game. The puzzles are unique and the storytelling is amazing. 10/10 would recommend to humans and artificial intelligence alike
Pretty cool puzzle game with an original story to accompany you along your journey . Every puzzle in the game (other than the stars) felt doable. I also enjoyed the DLC, i think they improved a lot on the base game and i realy liked the mini games / community of it too. To be honest there are not much to delve into about the possitives other than that it was a fun and challenging game. I will go into more detail about the "negative"(closer to small complains) about the game tho. My main issue with the game was motion sickness, even tho it went away after 20 hours or so, it forced me to take basicly a break after every puzzle. So if you have motion sickness issues its gonna be hard for you. I dont see the point of stars other than having something for achievment hunters. I did collect them for the 100% but with the help of a guide. Some of those stars require huge leaps of logic to come up with the solution and certainly a lot of hours of trial and error which i wasnt going to spent. The texts about the lore of the game got tiresome realy fast. They need to pace them out better and make the texts more relevant, i get that those texts were discussing the ideas of the game but i dont want to read 3 paragraphs to get to the conclusion that afterlife might not be the option. They did improve that with the dlc which made the text an interesting read mainly because you were interacting with the comminity.
Complicated but i love it

Overall good, cant find too much stuff about this to ♥♥♥♥♥ about, this isnt modern slop Zoomies will get filtered HARD, this is big brain thinking game this will run steady 144fps, after all, it isnt modern UE5 unoptimized slop that forces you to use AI slop frame gen, BECAUSE ITS AN IN HOUSE BUILT ENGINE THAT ACTUALLY WORKS AND ISNT CODED BY LITERAL MONKEYS UE5 is basically like a giant slop warning sigil Anyway onto my schizo rant : cheat counter : 13 some i had no ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ idea wtf i should be doing, and i just got bored i wanna finish this ♥♥♥♥ at some point, some i was halfway in but it was just too convoluted or out the box for me and i got bored Maybe 17 hours to finish, didnt bother with more than 3 stars or the messenger slop, im gonna watch that ending on YT or whatever lmao I aint gonna bother who the ♥♥♥♥ decided it wasnt a good idea to put checkpoints in the huge ass finale where you can get gaped by the storm, UR TIMED SO U BETTER EITHER WATCH THAT VIDEO OR GET REKT AND START OVER THE WHOLE WAY, now thats what i call SLOP this finally came at a deep enough discount that i was like heh whatever, and i sure aint playing the UE5 slop demake, i miss when games took 5 seconds to boot straight to menu and didnt stutter every 2 seconds and dont look cluttered cuz MUH ULTRAREALISM (if they run right at all) honestly when i started it was piss easy but of course it got harder and some of these puzzles had some ♥♥♥♥ that you just gotta have the right kind of autism to figure out, once you watch the video youre like wow ok its that easy with zone C its all reds and i can only do 15 minutes at a time else i get bored and my brain turns to mush like you really gotta think outside the box on some of this ♥♥♥♥, i mean that aint necessarily a bad thing, i can see how brainrotted i am so its a change of pace, Elohim was right, love the process, not the result but ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ lmao the reddit trained AI slop bot IE milton, what a top tier soyboy cuck this game really predicted the AI slop THATS ACTUALLY BEING TRAINED ON REDDIT LMAO, every conversation with that dildo literally starts with "EERRRMMMM WELL AKCSHTUALLY YOU SEE" :nerdemoji: honestly its funny af how accurate they portrayed a future redditor, thank god theres a way to silence him for good, im tired of that pseud midwit yapping on like hes 200 iq "everything is subjective" tier fedora ass 500 pound mf, DELETE!!! like egyptian arcade is just reflexslop, i knew what i had to do but hot damn im an unc not a zoomie, anyway I just closed the game and next day I just did it fresh and it was fine, this game is meant to be played in short sessions and not hour long goon sesh the ones giving me the most trouble are the replay ones like idk im too brainfried for that ♥♥♥♥ So the messengers or whatever are supposed to help you lmao well enjoy getting stuck on some tatramino puzzles for hours or whatever cuz that ♥♥♥♥♥ insanely hard sometimes, some i get first try but ♥♥♥♥ like the blue laser on island B is ridiculous, after 30 mins i just reached for the solution cuz i just wanted to progress, i probably would have got it eventually, after trying every combination possible, but i aint spending hours on that ♥♥♥♥ lmao And its worthless, its ONE, ONE hint, ONE TOTAL, not ONE PER PUZZLE LMAO i aint doin this, itll take me more time to figure it out without cheating than actually doing the stupid puzzle
