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 · 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 2,515 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.

Absolutely incredible. If you're into puzzle games, if you have nostalgia for the late 90s, definitely give this game a try. You won't be sorry!
Truly incredible
Great puzzles, but some you definitely need a guide on hand to figure out. I would love to see a feature where people are able to create their own stories and adventures for DE. With the range of styles Desktop Explorer covers, the possibilities are endless!

试完了demo之后立马购入了。 很不错的体验,画风很好,解谜时而流畅时而被卡得什么都想不出。 对于其他人说的第二章和第三章我个人有不同的见解, 我认为2,3玩法是为了和第一章做出区别,像邪恶铭刻、这里没有游戏,也会在后续关卡出现完全不同于第一章的玩法。 尤其是第二章的社区我个人非常喜欢,虽然有些繁琐,但是这个社区的设定让人感觉就是很温馨,通过聊天记录感觉仿佛真的在社区有这么几位朋友会和机主交流。 第三章设计的就短了很多,对于这个价格来说我感觉还ok吧,早玩早享受。 至于剧情还OK,不会特别谜语人,最后我保留了【M4XL0V3L4C3】想留着搜索,但是没有这个机会。 稀里糊涂结局了。 最后的合照应该是guppy max和mmtt吧,也有人说是hal。 又回去看了下日记,emmtt说自己会离开,去另一个世界。那照片上应该是医院的hal了,哎,我还挺喜欢emmtt还活着并且和女儿和解的,虽然他前期做的很不好,但是max是爱他的,毕竟把文档贴满了电脑的每个角落(可能被隐藏起来了导致没被发现),但是max是真的希望emmtt来找她,惋惜了。
Go in blind, get lost, get confused, its beautiful
great little game. the puzzles were pretty enjoyable. I was kind of bummed the last act wasn't longer
God this game has one of the best stories I have experienced in awhile. I kept me captivated and on the edge of my seat throughout the entire thing. The puzzles are also so interesting and cool and fun. Please play this game it is so worth your time and money.
自然流畅的叙事,代入感很强
Great OS game; good mystery, delivers well on the desktop snooping experience.
Loved this game. I cannot wait for more from this developer!
