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): 0.13/day in the week to Jul 21 → 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.

Decent enough old school jrpg.
Un jeu sympa pour le prix sa vaut carrément le coût de si intéresser. Attention cependant c'est un humour qui ne touche pas forcément tout le monde.
Short parodic homage to JRPGs that plays with the formula a little to make it not as grind- or whoops-I-overextended-focused as you remember those old NES games being. But I don’t remember much about it 13 years later; it is, quite literally, forgettable. What’s that? There’s a remake out now I get to play afresh, then? Delightful! This is often mentioned in the same (ahem) “breath” as Cthulhu Saves the World for all the right reasons, such as price and comedic flavor; however, they have different conceits. The title itself has multiple tongue-in-cheek jokes, which in c. 2011 comedy spirit I will now spell out in painful detail: a reference to Capcom’s Breath of Fire series which the game itself does not imitate in visual style, it is “of death” because the PCs are undead and it rhymes with “breath”, and it confusingly starts with a very high sequel number while paradoxically calling itself “the beginning” knowingly tripping over how it‘s somewhat gauche to include both a number and a subtitle if it makes the title not so snappy and to imply the existence of previous series entries.

Llevo años y años jugando RPGs, sobre todo por turnos. Desde los primeros Final Fantasy y Dragon Quests hasta maravillas como FFVI, Chrono Trigger y Terranigma. Nunca me pasé del todo al 3D porque se me hizo poco intuitiva la exploración, y sé que mucha gente se quedó en la misma era que yo, y sienten nostalgia al jugar cualquier buen RPG que le haga homenaje a esa época. Y eso es lo que es este juego. No una parodia, un homenaje. No sólo por tener una estética gráfica 8 bitera, ni por el humor y las referencias, que son muchas. Es por el amor con el que está hecho. Tiene mecánicas que hubiesen sido rompedoras en aquella época: poder guardar en cualquier momento, número fijo de batallas por zona (muy útil para explorar mazmorras una vez que las limpiaste, y pudiendo seguir luchando si lo deseas), recuperar vida después de cada batalla (y así no abusar de pociones, un mal endémico de la época), poder elegir dificultad (utilísimo), y algunas más que se me olvidan. Son mejoras sustanciales pero que no le quitan espíritu: se siente como un homenaje desde el principio, y está hecho par quienes vivimos esa era. Así lo sentí yo, y supongo que no es para todo el mundo, pero tampoco pretende serlo. No lo he terminado. Voy disfrutándolo despacio, avanzando de a poco. Sé que es corto y quiero que me dure. Lo cierto es que no esperaba nada de él y me ha maravillado. Sé que no a todos les gustará, pero a quienes les gusten los RPGs clásicos quedarán encantados como yo. Recomendado 100%.
Breath of the Wild VII
Very quaint when you compare it to the abundance of incredibly high-quality throwback JRPGs we have now. Full of humor and references that have not aged particularly well, technically simplistic, repetitive in places... ...But damn if it doesn't have charm to spare. It's hard to convey how cool this was on Xbox 360 in 2010, when we had only just started to get "real" games from indie studios, games that could straight up compete with AAA games in our GOTY lists. And the idea that even just some guys from the Penny Arcade forums could get a game on Xbox, that I could buy for only a couple of bucks, was the coolest thing in the world to me. This felt like a game made by "one of us", and just for us. Now I'd love to say "for 3 bucks, you can't go wrong", but if the above context isn't relatable at all to you, if you're not *really* into indie JRPGs, or you're not old enough that you can still chuckle at "all your base are belong to us" and "the cake is a lie" references ironically, you may want to try one of Zeboyd's newer games instead. If you ARE one of those people though, I highly recommend it.
