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 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.

This game was so different from what I was expecting and I mean it in the best possible way. I am used to games like this teaching me couple mechanics just so I can learn how to play till the end, but this game? It intoduces new mechanic every single time you thought you already have been getting it! It has much more depth than I was expecting and figuring out who the people involved with the story were is a great deal!
An intensely atmospheric and puzzling adventure. Even 7 hours after having finished the game, I am still thinking about the ending of the game. With light horror elements scattered throughout, it turns out the scariest thing is what is inside us. Had me choked up in a few places, especially the ending. Would absolutely get dissociative amnesia in order to experience this again for the first time. Absolutely thrilling.

The game's solid 8/10. Definitely worth the price and time. BUT FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, PLEASE, PUT UP AN EPILEPSY WARNING.
dont look at the trailer, dont look at any guides, download the game and enjoy
The creepy atmosphere was bad enough, but then the assistant made a cheap jumpscare joke... I was on the fence about reviewing, since so much of this is personal taste, but that really felt like a slight.
This game is good. It runs great, looks great, and sounds great. It’s immersive, and you don’t notice the hours passing while you play. There are many different puzzles, and it’s fun to explore while using your PC knowledge to help solve them. There’s no shame in looking for hints from the community if you get stuck, as some of the puzzles can be quite challenging. It reminds me a bit of Hypnospace Outlaw, but with more focus on mystery, and it’s easier to get into. I often felt lost in Hypnospace, but this game feels more contained and approachable. I will continue this review once I have completed the game.
review after finishing the game - story wise i undrestood about 30% of the lore , thought it might have been my own fault NEVERTHELESS THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST PUZZLE GAMES IVE EVER PLAYED 100% RECCOMEND!
you can play flow free in this game 10/10
A bit of a work-out in terms of brain usage but very, VERY well made! I've been streaming it with a few friends and it's an absolute TREAT with buddies! Collaborating with them on puzzles and mutually experiencing the game has been one of the most fun things yet :] I highly recommend, and, though certainly I've only beaten the first third of the game, Desktop Explorer is showing some very, VERY interesting gameplay mechanics! Go play it!
Increasingly surprising puzzles that are satisfying to solve with good eerie vibes
