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): 3.86/day in the week to Aug 1 → 9.43/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 23 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 14 places towards #1, and the 2,420 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.

Çok daha başarılı olabilecekken vazgeçilmiş. Gelişim yavaş sayılmaz. Çok tekrara düşüyor. Gelişim yapılması için sadece bir alan seçile biliniyor bu da oyunu kendi içinde yavaşlatıyor. oynama süresini uzatıp iadeyi engellemek için yapıldığı bariz. Aynı alanda daha iyi versiyonları var. Bu fiyata 2-3 saat oyun. Karar sizin.
nice
Solid little game to invest 3 or so hours in. Pacing was good and music enjoyable.

[h3][url=store.steampowered.com/app/3833760/You_Know_The_Drill/]You Know The Drill[/url] is generally satisfying but not especially memorable.[/h3] Simple and enjoyable core gameplay with easy auto collect, just point in direction where to go. Activate overdrive to move and mine faster. Purchase classic incremental upgrades in between each run. Collect power ups to extend runs that only last a few seconds. Unlock every item on the menu to complete the short campaign. Chill, no enemies. Pixel graphics look nice with finely rendered digging tunnels and flying particles. The game gets visually quite hectic in later stages. Selection of known lo-fi beats you've probably heard before are okay, but they feel like an easy choice. SFX could be better, with the controlled drill sounding like a pickaxe. Rush mode is exactly the same game but with a limited tiny skill tree, a single currency and easily achievable in a single session. [b]Additional areas for improvement[/b] [list] [*] Scantily celebrates important milestones with lean feedback (keeps going when inventory is full, needs stronger audio visual cues) [*] Newly unlocked upgrade sections or mining levels are barely mentioned (changing mines should feel more rewarding) [*] Sells the mining fantasy short (after a few runs it's more like flying in space without any actual mining left) [*] No need to dig deeper (levels are pretty small and will reach the bottom rapidly) [*] Respawning ores and toggling special resources on and off feels gimmicky (missed opportunity to add proper depth) [*] Slow progression (each run feels more or less the same with tiny increments) [/list]
Good game, very satisfying, finished the campaing in less than 3 hours, I really enjoyed
不好玩
Completely 100%ed the game and I still don't know what that blue pickaxe does. 10/10.
Addictive and flows good. For a solo dev i salute you!
Si
Es un juego bastante corto pero creo que se disfruta cada minuto de este. Es muy entretenido y se te pasan las horas rápido jugándolo.
