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): 0.38/day in the week to Aug 3 → 0.71/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.

一样不是很喜欢这个故事，美术、音乐还可以，解密也没有特别难，如果只是想打发时间可以玩
A slow-paced, relaxing, and gentle game; towards the end, it seemed as though the Owl had come back to life, but in reality, he was merely revived within the woman's heart.
short & sweet, lovely art. puzzles feel reasonably intuitive and i like the story told without words here

Boring story. Cheesy music. Stereotypical female character. Basic gameplay. Good art tho.
such an incredible game, very sad but that ending is superb and leaves so much to think about. Definitely not going to be forgotten anytime soon
Game macam apa ini, membuatku sedih saja T_T (actually i really love it) uh.. will I be labeled weird after saying this? um.. I.. I also want to be patted by an owl :<
This was one of the games from the opening, I started crying. It puts you in a similar space if you like stories like Final Fantasy X, where the romance is the key element. I consider this to be one of the most beautiful, heart wrenching stories that I have the pleasure of playing. I sincerely hope that who ever is reading this has a wonderful time playing it. It will stay with you in your heart.
稍微有点仓促了。和包饺子坐一桌。
游戏名为往室 When the Past Was Around 在“往室”中慢慢讲述“往事” 不得不说这个中译确实很妙 整个游戏流程用时很短 解谜简单 手绘画风艺术唯美 通过不断在回忆里收集羽毛 一步步揭开故事的结局 而每一片羽毛都代表着女主心中和恋人的一段珍贵回忆 游戏讲述了女主学会与过去告别 与悲伤和解 在往事中拾取继续前进的气力的过程 或许我们也要到很久很久之后才能接受 我们所爱之人是不属于我们的事实 他们有自己的生活 有自己的故事 也有随时离开的可能和权利 但在痛苦地哭嚎过后 依然要拾起一两份往事的馈赠 去填补内心的空洞 继续勇敢地走下去 会者定离 一期一祈 愿过往成序章 朝朝迎日曦 暮暮揽星芒 。。。
女主满脸担忧，而猫头鹰有些自说自话的拉着小提琴，让人不快
