Prices
The United States storefront in every case, so this compares stores and not countries.
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 Aug 20 → 0/day in the week after.
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 2,400 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.
About

Parallel-Weirdo is a black-and-white manga-style visual novel game set in a high school, adapted from the manga series Parallel(诡闻斋).
The story takes place at Di Yingling High School, where the protagonist, Wang Zhe, is a boy with great ambitions but ordinary looks and a troubled family background.
He earned a spot at this elite school with his excellent grades, determined to complete his "grand" research project.
However, surrounded by talented peers and dazzling girls, can he maintain his composure?
How will he choose between love and career, or can he have both? Can this bookworm stand out in the fierce competition?
Through your choices, help him achieve a "nobody's rise"!
Players who have experienced the previous two games will recognize some familiar faces since everyone is in the same school.


Includes 4 major chapters, each with interesting story developments and challenges.
Over 100,000 words of rich script, providing a deep story experience.
4-8 hours of single playthrough, ideal for immersive short-term gameplay.
More than 20 main characters, each with unique personalities and backstories.
Multiple girls to pursue, each with different story routes and endings.
4 main endings and 2 hidden endings, offering diverse game experiences.
Over 100 choices, each affecting the story's development and ending.
More than 400 exquisite manga panels, enhance visual enjoyment.
12 BGM tracks, including 6 new compositions, enhancing the game's atmosphere.













Compared to most visual novel games, the Parallel series extensively uses manga panels to carry the narrative instead of relying on narration and descriptive text.
By perfectly integrating the essence of manga with traditional visual novel games, it provides players with a stronger visual experience and complete immersion in the exciting story.
Each choice in the game brings different branches and butterfly effects, allowing players to enjoy the fun of personally advancing the story.
We believe that this unique approach makes the integration of game and manga narrative more appealing, providing players with a brand-new gaming experience.


CASCHA GAMES is composed of Cascha and Joey (the author of the Parallel (诡闻斋)manga series).
We hope to present bizarre yet realistic stories that could happen around us from an objective and rational perspective, leaving it to the players to make their own judgments.
As a niche game type, we sincerely look forward to more players who love the Parallel-Weirdo series joining our community (QQ group and DISCORD channel), helping us continuously improve and develop this series. We will actively listen to your opinions and suggestions and interact with you. May our joint efforts make the Parallel series a modern classic like “Strange Tales of Liaozhai”.
We also hope to have volunteer players help us proofread more localized translations in languages such as Japanese, Korean, English, and others, allowing players from more regions to experience the charm of the Parallel series.

Reviews
《诡闻斋异人》是一部改编自同名漫画的黑白漫画风格校园怪谈视觉小说游戏,作为系列的第三部作品,它很好的延续了前两作的独特美术风格和扎实有趣的故事设定,玩家将要扮演家境中落,内向腼腆的主角王哲在一系列荒唐古怪的事情影响下逐步走向逆袭的独特故事,游戏以独特的叙事方式和丰富的剧情选择,为玩家带来了一场充满怪诞与奇幻的校园冒险。 又幻想了...故事就开局就是主角幻想中的景象,一番人上人的幻想之后重新回到无奈的现实,游戏故事背景设定在帝英陵高中,主角王哲是一个外表平凡但怀揣远大抱负的男生,本身家境尚可的他因为研究员父亲的去世而家道中落,本身腼腆内向的性格又让他变得脆弱自卑。在故事中将扮演这样“平凡”的王哲在这所贵族校园中生存下来,并直面各种荒唐离奇的事件,从而实现人生逆袭。 游戏基于黑白漫画为主的复古表现风格称得上独树一帜,结合设计细致的地图和独特的漫画分镜叙事让故事节奏变得跌宕起伏,这一点也很棒,数百幅漫画原画合理的撑起了整个游戏的故事内容。不过有些不太明白的是为什么不把游戏改成买本体送原画漫画集的形式,毕竟都买了游戏还要再单独购买原作总感觉体验版不是很好。 另外游戏的UI界面设计很好,一方面贴合游戏本身的黑白漫画风格,另一方面简洁大方,没有现在那些galgame花里胡哨一堆按钮,除了起到分散玩家对故事注意力本身以外并无半点作用,所以游戏整体观感十分良好。 由于作品隶属诡闻斋系列,是系列的第三部作品,前两作优良的质量也给了本作很好的背书,其系列独特的黑白漫画风格、丰富多样的剧情选择以及深度的恋爱模拟元素,成功地为玩家呈现了一个充满怪诞与奇幻的校园世界。所以无论是视觉小说爱好者,还是对怪谈题材感兴趣的玩家,都能在这部作品中找到属于自己的乐趣。 [quote] 游玩百态,将游玩心得用汉语化作玩家的指明灯,(๑•̀ㅂ•́)و✧ [url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/35402408/]点击这里关注汉化语录~[/url] 如果喜欢这个评测,请点个赞让更多人看见 [/quote]
