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.

[table][th] Review by [url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/34633003-Gaming-Masterpieces/lists/] Gaming Masterpieces [/url] - The greatest games of all time on Steam. [/th][/table] Is this game a masterpiece? Hm, no, but it is a fun and quite cute 3D puzzle platformer. You are a lazy mechanic onboard a large whale... ahm, airship. All the humans who once lived here have left, because the whale has been invaded by some strange goo-like creatures, the Squiddies. They are not really evil, but kind of annoying and also a bit mischievous and ruining all the machines. You are the only human still here, tasked to maintain the large whale. The whale's AI called Fin talks to you and tells you what is needed to be done, like clearing the whale's blowholes. So you run/jump around inside the whale, fixing things, eliminating the strange Squiddies and solving little puzzles. You are wearing a power glove to push or pull large objects, so you can take a human-sized battery from one place and insert it somewhere else, for example. Smaller invaders can be shot with the power glove, larger ones need to be smashed by throwing large objects on them. It is required that you examine the layout of the levels and find out what to do to move on. There is often no obvious and simple route that you take by skillfully jumping from place to place. The gameplay contains a bit more of exploring and thinking how to be able to continue, and trying out how to manipulate the environment. You can talk not only to the whale, but also to other robots left behind that you encounter during your journey. They help you, give you little tasks, actually quite cute. There are also collectibles (stickers) hidden all over the levels, so it pays to examine every location. Gamepad support is fine. [u][b] Conclusion:[/b][/u] 3D puzzle platformer. Not up to Super Mario 64 quality, but still rather entertaining, and a bit more on the puzzle solving side than the platforming/collectathon part.

You're on a spaceship in the form of a whale with a cute AI "Fin". The AI is a bit in panic as every human has left the ship while he doesn't feel so good... except for one guy, will he help make Fin feel better because something is going on in his stomach. The main focus of this game is a push-and-pull mechanic with which you solve puzzles, find collectibles (aka stickers), help the springpeople that are left on the ship and fight a few enemies. I find it very interesting how with such a simple mechanic the developers have made a lot of small puzzles you have to figure out in order to progress. Sometimes I felt a bit lost but there was always something I had to do or figure out in order to progress. It didn't feel like they repeated the solutions of puzzles, they all were quite unique. I encountered a few bugs and the game has some stutters and a camera that sometimes pulls in one direction without a reason. I know that the development team is very small and they are hard at work with fixing bugs that players found since the release of this game (Writing this a little over 24h after the release). Most bugs were easily fixed by reloading the level and they didn't stand in the way of enjoying this little gem. The ending gives the option for a sequel and I really hope that one day the lovely people of Forbidden Folds will be able to make one! Maybe one where you also have to clean the ship, like how it is done in [url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/400080/Out_of_Space/?utm_source=MissiTheAchievementHuntress&utm_campaign=steam_achievement_hunting&utm_medium=world_wide_webby&utm_content=confabulate_reviews&utm_term=having_fun&curator_clanid=33025671/]Out of Space[/url] or [url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/983970/Haven/?utm_source=MissiTheAchievementHuntress&utm_campaign=steam_achievement_hunting&utm_medium=world_wide_webby&utm_content=confabulate_reviews&utm_term=having_fun&curator_clanid=33025671/]Haven[/url]. I would have loved to clean up the ship as well.
it's a really great game, the push-pull mechanic is such a fun, yet simple idea and extremely satisfying! and although there's total (and intentional) chaos on the screen sometimes, the game runs smoothly and without bugs or crashes, which makes the experience even better. there's so much to explore and little details to discover, i enjoyed trying to find all the puns and jokes (and i find them way too funny). and even though i spent most of the time exploring, it never gets boring because of the unique art style and the great music! i absolutely recommend this game, i love it and am really looking forward to all the puns and crazy things i have yet to find
such a lovely and pretty game! the gameplay and story fit very well together, I LOVE the art style and the bright colors, and the magnetic-handy-gloves-make-pure-chaos mechanic makes so much fun:D You can easily tell that this game was made with a lot of love and soul, and that at least one of the devs is addicted to whale-puns!
Nice short puzzle game with interesting mechanics and some intriguing puzzles.
In this game you are inside a giant whale solving puzzles. I love everything about it: from the whale puns to the attention to detail that the developer has put into every corner of the world. You can feel that they had a ton of fun creating this: the crazy candy-like art style, the banger soundtrack and the funny story. It's the kind of game that puts a smile on your face every time you start it up.
