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): 0/day in the week to Sep 1 → 0/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 25 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 10 places towards #1, and the 2,413 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.

傻b优化,我他妈68买的,♥♥♥♥
Pozitívum : - Szép grafika - színes környezet - tetszik az építés rendszere - nagy map - sok mindent lehet craftolni - izgalmas játék én szerintem és nem 4-5 órás a végigjátszás , főleg ha nagyon belemerülsz az építésbe Negatívumok: - hiányzik a cooperativ - lehetne benne több fegyver - több rombolható környezet - kicsit kidolgozottabb történet

Not bad
[h1]Vortex: The Gateway[/h1] [b]Summary:[/b] A fun indie survival, horror game. Rough around the edges, but overall a fun experience. Collect resources, fight monsters and try get home. Worth the price? Yes Genre: Survival Horror Gameplay: 7 / 10 Graphics: 7 / 10 Audio: 6 / 10 Atmosphere: 8 / 10 Playtime: 7 / 10 Story: 5 / 10 [b]Overall Rating: 7 / 10[/b] https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2945212107 [b]Full Review[/b] Vortex is a strange game, it has a lot of potential but feels as if the developers needed another year fine tuning the experience and listening to feedback. From what I can tell they did update the game multiple times after release and were active on the forums for some time. Some missing content is noticeable and non game breaking bugs find their way into the experience. I won the main story mode in 16 hours, exploring the majority of the map and getting 42 of the 53 achievements. I haven't played survival mode yet, so I can't comment on that part of the game. The overall experience was mostly good. With the atmosphere and exploration being the highlight of my time spent in Vortex. Some bugs, glitches and clunky controls do not hinder this much. However, it does make playing the game frustrating at times. If you are use to early access or less polished experiences, then you will be just fine. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2945211663 The combat in the game, is pretty simple. Its definitely a means to an end. The crafting and camp building is very enjoyable and I have to emphasise the fact that the developers of Vortex managed to make a fun survival game WITHOUT the grind. I never felt like I didn't want to collect a resource to build what I needed and wanted. In 16 hours, while exploring the island, I managed to build up a respectable camp. Vortex really shines in its ability to allow the player to have "fun". Which is a funny thing because that's what you expect in a video game, right? However, a lot of survival games tend to be about the grind. They limit the players progression at every turn. Even some single player survival games do this. So with all this praise, why is it only a 7 of 10? Well, there seems to be some unfinished content and bugs that get in the way. As well as the game being made on a smaller budget some animations and graphics feel out of place. The audio could also use some more variety and A LOT more balancing. It's amazing that a team as small as Storm Cube Games pulled this off. It's easy to notice the game didn't get as much support as the community would have wanted. But all things considered, the developers did a great job. [b]Some bugs I came across[/b] -Arm holding lighter disappears -A missing/incorrect texture on a plant -Can't delete some traps you place down -My PC cut off (thanks load shedding) and when restarting the games all the controls were unmapped. Had to reset before playing again. [b]Some much needed improvements[/b] -Being able to look around while driving the vehicle -Look at map while driving vehicle -Aim precisely while shooting bow -Boxes to store misc. items [b]Review Edits[/b] Fixed an incorrect image URL in review. Removed spoiler tag
nem volt rossz.
もったいない! 核なるシステムは揃っており、あとは細かいところを煮詰めてゆけば かなりの大作になるであろう内容と思います。 基本的にはThe Forestの宇宙版なんですが モーションやUIなどがシームレスじゃなかったり システムがしっかりしているが故に逆にもったいなさを 感じました。 もったいないオブザイヤー1位。
Про игру давным давно забыли.... в современном мире игра уже давно изжила свое.... графика механика все не очень... так еще и не законченная как по мне
Игра неожиданно меня затянула. Если вкратце - это Forest с инопланетянами. Если подробнее: - большой открытый мир - пугающая атмосфера даже днем, и реалистичные звуки появления монстров - ночью чувствуешь себя некомфортно, даже при отсутствии страшилищ поблизости, и нельзя спать ночью - чудовища страшные и хорошо нарисованы - отличающийся от большинства выживалок крафт с подставками почти под все, что нужно, но без сундуков под это - различные постройки для строительства базы с возможным ее ограждением - спорная система ловушек, включающая как очень нужные, так и бесполезные - универсальное для всей игры копье и неудобный во всех отношениях лук (держа его в руках нельзя параллельно освещать путь) - увлекательное исследование острова с автоматической пометкой мест с ресурсами и мест интереса - огромный хозяин острова, которому все равно за кем охотится - за монстрами или за людьми - ненавязчивая сюжетная линия с необычной концовкой - режим выживания - фактически кооп с бесполезным мобом, из-за которого придется искать еду питье для двоих, строить возле него базу и каждую ночь защищать ее от приходящих монстров и именно в этом режиме познается вся оборонная система с ограждениями и ловушками - нарастающие волны чудовищ в режиме выживания, но постепенные и не такие огромные, как, например, в Night of the Dead. Игру рекомендую всем любителям атмосферных выживалок, пытливым исследователям, крафтерам и создателям собственных баз.
非常硬核的生存游戏,怪物很多,故事模式通关,很棒!版本v1.1522 简单流程,开局建设庇护所保存记录,探索地图上所有“?”。无人机碎片附件的飞船内找到球体模块,外星人军用设施附件找到导航模块,晚上在飞船下方杀掉外星人,获得开门需要的手,进入绿色飞船故事模式通关! 缺点: 1.弓箭射击的视角,上方和下方很糟糕,射击的时候不能移动,只能站在高处射击下方目标。但是弓的伤害是投矛的2倍,弓箭击杀一只外星犀牛只要4只箭矢,投矛则需要8只矛。 2.背包里的工具砍刀数量重复,无法丢弃,占用格子数。庇护所建设,回收材料的时候,容易出现这种bug,很难受,不无扔掉。 优点: 1.处处是怪物,不能太莽,很硬核,很棒! 2.支持中文 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Very hardcore survival game, a lot of monsters, story mode clearance, great! Version v1.1522 Simple process, start building shelter to save records, explore all the "? "on the map. Drone fragments attached to the spacecraft to find the sphere module, alien military facilities attached to find the navigation module,Kill the aliens under the ship at night, get the hand you need to open the door, enter the green ship story mode complete! Disadvantages: 1. Bow shooting Angle, bad up and down, can not move when shooting,can only stand high to shoot the target below. But a bow does twice as much damage as a throwing spear, which takes only four arrows to kill an alien rhino. A throwing spear takes eight spears. 2. The number of tools and machetes in the backpack is repeated, which cannot be discarded and occupies the grid number. Shelter construction, recycling materials, prone to this bug, very uncomfortable, not without throwing away. Advantages: 1.monsters everywhere, not too reckless, very hard core, great!2.Support Chinese!
