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.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 7.57/day in the week to Aug 7 → 9.86/day in the week after.
Too few observations to say whether a discount moves this store's chart at all: across the last 30 days Steam · Top Sellers · Poland has just 18 day-to-day chart moves that followed a price cut, against 2,498 that did not. We are publishing the count instead of a direction — 20 is the fewest we will draw a conclusion from, and price collection outside the United States began on 6 August 2026.
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'm not sure what my expectations were going into this, but they were definitely exceeded, this game is very fleshed out and has clearly had a lot of love poured into the details! I really appreciate that book aspect of things isn't just a gimmick, the Devs clearly know the books they put in the game. For example, if a book offers something a customer is looking for that's not listed in the book's description, choosing it will still fulfill the recommendation. I only really have 2 issues with the game; only having 6 book types can make things a bit confusing, like Journey to the Center of the Earth is in the same section as Travelogues sometimes or Agatha Christie novels being in the same "crime" section as S or the Hannibal Lecter series; and the display sizes of the books not corresponding to the book length. However, these are far from deal breakers and I would recommend buying this game at FULL PRICE, the Devs have more than earned the extra few bucks!!!!

Juego muy cozy (˶˃ ᵕ ˂˶) .ᐟ.ᐟ especialmente divertido si te gusta la literatura, ya que los libros son reales!
This is an amazing cozy game, it's the kind of game you can play when you just need a break. It is easy, fun, and enjoyable. I could easily get lost in it for hours.
I tried playing this game and at first I didn't get it and thought it was boring. A few months lather, I tried again and I'm happy I did. The game is very cozy, nothing too challenging but at the same time is engrossing, and doesn't feel like an engine building game where you make endless amounts of money. You're selling used books in a tiny wagon - you can't be in that for the money. Also, I've discovered new books to read playing this because most of the books you sell are real books. It's very charming and a good game to zone out to.
Starts off sweet and promising but is way too short. Becomes repetitive after about 2 years ingame 🙄
It's such a cozy game! The characters' stories are really lovely and I found myself relating to a few situations that I've been through myself. The gameplay can get a little monotonous, though. Still, it's a really great game!
治愈，嗯，只有治愈感
very very good.. i'm getting close to the end of the storyline and its making me sad
Genuinely one of the best time management games I've played in a while, as it removes the running back and forth aspect while still keeping the player engaged in the story. Really enjoying this one and excited to see more!
Real life can be stressful, this game is the cure. The perfect cozy game where I can turn my brain off. Really enjoy that there is just the smallest amount of a story so it doesn't feel repetitive and makes my goal oriented mind to keep going.
