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.

身為解謎控的我推推 謎題合理有跡可尋不到爆炸難且對個人的頻率 不會卡到需要要看攻略那種(? 謎題量充足且有不少巧思 是打發時間的好玩解謎小遊戲OWO)b 也要讚嘆一下繁中的翻譯 居然可以翻譯的這麼文謅謅(稱讚意味
best game
Amazing game! Loved every minute of it. Riddles were tough, but fair (never had to use clues). The atmosphere is great (Kinda inscryptiony, but more creepy than scary) And the storytelling is compelling, revealing a heartfelt story with characters you relate to. And if you're in your late 30's, you'll definitely feel the Windows95/Early internet chat nostalgia! So if you love puzzle games, good narratives and creepy atmospheres, be sure to get this one

Loved it so much
Yes, I would recommend SOOOOOOO much better than Blue Prince!
I really enjoyed this game! The puzzles could be difficult at times but it was satisfying to figure them out! The story, the retro computer graphics, and soundtrack will all keep you invested until the end.
Je recommande très fortement Desktop Explorer aux amateurs de réflexion. À la base, j’avais acheté le jeu uniquement parce que je voulais faire un bon jeu de casse-tête, mais je me suis surpris à vraiment apprécier son histoire, à faire des suppositions sur ce qu’il se passait et surtout à vouloir continuer pour avoir les réponses à mes questions. Le gameplay est vraiment intéressant et arrive surtout à ne pas devenir redondant. Les énigmes sont très variées et le jeu mélange plusieurs façons de jouer, donc on n’a jamais vraiment cette impression de refaire toujours la même chose en boucle juste pour avancer, et ça c’est vraiment appréciable. Les OST, sans être des chefs-d’œuvre non plus, sont très sympathiques et accompagnent bien le jeu. Mon plus gros reproche serait surtout le manque de langues disponibles. Je trouve ça dommage que des personnes ayant du mal avec l’anglais puissent passer à côté du jeu uniquement à cause de ça. J’ai honnêtement du mal à lui trouver beaucoup d’autres défauts. Les énigmes sont bonnes, intéressantes et, la plupart du temps, si on se retrouve bloqué, c’est surtout parce qu’on a manqué un détail, d’observation ou d’attention. Si vous aimez les jeux de réflexion et les énigmes, je le recommande sans hésiter.
Fantastic game! There's a good story, good puzzles, and some very interesting mechanics.
Every evil application always has a desktop helper... Really makes you think huh
