Prices
The United States storefront in every case, so this compares stores and not countries.
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): 0.14/day in the week to Aug 14 → 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.

Belle atmosphère plutôt morbide dans ce jeu original. Je déplore juste de n'avoir pu voir la fin optimiste du jeu, n'ayant pas fait la bonne action au bon moment au début du jeu. Le retour en arrière n'est hélas pas possible, à moins de tout recommencer . Il y a également quelques bugs, des objets qui disparaissent de l'inventaire....
BEWARE: There's a bug that causes the Save feature to temporarily disappear every time you click: Esc -> anything other than Save -> Esc So I didn't know that I could save my game, and 5 hours later, I got a "neutral" ending without any kind of warning. If I had known that doing "the thing" would end the game, I wouldn't have done it. There's no way I'm doing all of that all over again! Apart from that annoyance, Earthworms is decent, but nothing special. The visuals and soundtrack are the strengths of this game. They're great and they make for a somewhat atmospheric little game. The puzzles are mostly easy, but a few of them are a little challenging, at least. I found the writing/narrative to be pretty bad, and I don't just mean the poor English. I just think it tried too hard to be mysterious and clever and instead came off as pretentious and nonsensical at times. I also found the attempts at humor dull and out of place. The inventory and UI are a little bit clunky and annoying.

Good game so far, although if and when I ever complete it I doubt I'll ever play it again.
I wanted to like this game, but just too many glitches. Inventory discrepancies, loops where you walk towards an area and instead go back to a previous one ... with the things you already completed back where they were (that Gal you teleport home), and now after re-starting it to "clear" the errors ... I can't save any more. I liked the ambiance, humor, and style ... but the bugs just make it not worth continuing. I did buy the Soundtrack though, because I like that. Sad, but just too annoying to keep playing,
I understand that this was made by one person (which is impressive), however there are still quite a few issues with the game, including some glitches and just a general lack of direction. It feels like the creator released and then abandoned this game, as it was released in 2018 and there are still many issues. It had the potential to be great, but I (a completionist) struggled to finish even one ending. The music was the best part of the game.
I bought this cause I love adventure games and thought this had a unique visual style, but the english translation is pretty bad. It seems like it wants to be a detective noir style, but the writing is just bad english grammar and doesn't really sell me on immersion. I'm constantly looking at things and rather than being immersed in the world I'm complaining about how things don't grammatically make sense, which spoils any enjoyment I might have gotten from the cool visual aesthetic.
游戏还可以,剧情还凑合,就是人身上增殖触手太恶心而且也太毁三观了
Yes.
just play rusty lake
If you do not play the game exactly as intended, prepare to be softlocked. Oh you did not do some cryptic thing that was never mentioned anywhere, did not get the flask, talk to the spirit and now your pickaxe use is "a waste of time" instead opening the brick wall. This game is dull and is back-to-back-to-back puzzles that have nothing to do with the plot or anything. The developer likes hiding progression vital items behind rocks that are 100 % not visible unless you move your character to a specific spot. The stupidest part is that they never mention why this "detective" is there in the first place. "A waste of time" indeed, this game is.
