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 8 → 0.14/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.

Cute educational adventure puzzle game mainly aimed at 10-12-year-olds.
I got this game during a sale, thinking why not? And I'm really glad I did. It's a fun game that aims to teach you about Roman history. It's not a hard game and the history stuff was really interesting. I learnt loads. And you can really tell that a lot of heart went into this game. If it looks like it's your type of game, go for it.
知识点很多,真的能引发对庞贝的好奇心,美中不足的是玩法比较单一,地图有点大有时候会迷路,而且没有汉化

È un gioco realizzato da studenti per studenti. Chi gioca deve quindi essere pronto a passare sopra qualche ingenuità nelle meccaniche di gameplay talvolta fin troppo semplice e benevola nei confronti del giocatore e dall'approccio didattico non sempre integrato in quello ludico. Comunque come opera prima è abbastanza pulita e carina e invito i giovani sviluppatori di Danger in Pompei a continuare, e ad andare oltre il mondo scolastico.
An engaging and well paced puzzle/adventure game. It's not quite a point-and-click and not just an edugame either - there's some tension in the final sequence and I enjoyed the humour that popped up in places. I think the translation/narration detracts a little bit from the overall polished look and feel - gameplay is fun and I enjoyed the puzzles, although it's definitely for a younger audience. Looking forward to a second run to get the last few achievements!
A fun learning game for the kiddos
Danger in Pompeii is a marvellous game, which helped me learn a lot about life in the Roman Empire, and the eruption of Mount Vesuvius.
4个小时可通关。解谜难度不大,失败了重试不限次数。支线任务奖励丰厚,路上会经常刷新爆金币的花瓶,而且后期马车跳转收费极低,钱根本花不完。地图可以直接查看科普信息点,妈妈再也不用担心我因为学习迷路了。缺点是没有汉化版本,科普信息点音频没字幕,英语中掺杂少量拉丁文,只能边玩边查字典。键鼠交互,人物移动只能靠键盘,对手柄兼容性很差,反人类设计。通关后不能再读档,只能重玩到火山爆发前才能有最全的科普信息。
I had such a fantastic time solving the quests, helping townsfolk with everyday problems, and piecing together the secrets of the city. The comic-book style visuals bring ancient Rome to life, and exploring the Forum, Theater, and baths felt both immersive and relaxing.
A pretty short game with nice visuals thats great for someone interested in the time period. All in all a fun and informative game
