Prices
Each in the currency that store quoted — not converted: the gap between two rows is the publisher's pricing, not an exchange rate.
Every market we collect.
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): 11.43/day in the week to Aug 29 → 21.57/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Poland over the last 30 days: the 21 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 12 places towards #1, and the 2,501 moves with no price cut behind them went 1 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.

genuinely one of the best games i have played. the puzzle mechanics are so varied and unique. you can tell how much work went into making this. peak if you love puzzle games.
Desktop Explorer is a delight to play. The puzzles are well crafted and use the most of the UI of the Win98. It is so far my favourite fourth wall breaking game I have played.

Excellent puzzle design that utilizes desktop navigation in increasingly innovative ways. Definitely needed a few files of paper to make sure I had everything written down for myself. Story-wise was an interesting puzzle to unfold, with more psychological depth than expected. Definitely not a jumpscare horror, but gets the creepy juices flowing.
amazing game- still haven't beat it but fully expect it's going to stay amazing.
it is a really good game, some of the puzzles may require a guide or time, but otherwise it is a phenomenal game!
if you are a fan of notpron then you will love this game.
rarely do i post reviews but this game deserves one. one of the most unique and fun experiences ive had with a game in a long time. if you like puzzles and getting creeped out (not jump scared) then give this game a go. hope they make more games in the future like this!
play it
