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/day in the week to Aug 7 → 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.
About

when I tell you I love everything that Just Sauce Studios have to offer. It has been an honor to get to know this dev team. When I tell you their work has done nothing but gotten better and better throughout the years. This is by far one of the best horror story based games I've ever played. It was captivating and kept me and my community on the end of our seats. I've I could rate this it is easy a 10/10 for me. The graphics so super clean and the interactive world gave you so much more to do instead of the story. Great job Just Sauce Studios can't wait for the next big game to come out.
Big fan of gambling, biggest fan there is. Made so much money on gambling, slots had no chance. I was greedy though. They say you quit just before you win big, but i never quit. Fate had other plans for me those days. Good game

Amazing game! JustSauceStudios has done it again! I highly recommend this game!
This game was absolutely amazing. I have played a few horror games in my time but this story was amazing! The story had me and everyone in my chat at the edge of their seat! I have recommended the game to few people and hopefully they enjoy it as much as i did!
This game is amazing and by far the best horror game I have played. The developers know exactly what they are doing with how the scares and timing of things are laid out. The atmosphere, character development and story line is just beautiful and I had goosebumps multiple times during my play through. I highly recommend this game and would go on to say it deserves a spot in the top 10 horror games of 2025. If you would like to watch me play the whole game I will leave a link here to my video. Thank you Just Sauce Studio for creating this with all the love that you did. My channel: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLHWCo8GPzRsc7P1IaVRNqDVscdRrJshQ1
Beat the game with 81% achievements. A super silly horror game taking you through trippy haunted houses full of spacey shadow ghosts, evil demons and colorful glowing orbs. Uncover the mystery and reunite with your friend carly in this magnificent magical fun game, love it!
Gaze of Dread is a haunting and beautifully crafted experience that kept me on edge from start to finish. The atmosphere is tense yet captivating, pulling you deeper into its unsettling world with every moment. The story builds perfectly, keeping you guessing until the very end — and that ending was a lot to take in. I didn’t expect it to hit that hard, and honestly, I wish it hadn’t ended the way it did. Still, the emotional weight and the way it all ties together make it unforgettable. The visuals and sound design complement the eerie tone perfectly. I’d definitely recommend this game to anyone who enjoys psychological horror done right. I created a YouTube video of a play-through of this game. Expect it to come out soon!
having some damn good fun with this game, and loving the story
I think there's a bug or something. That [spoiler] Dracula guy (I forgot his name) [/spoiler] kept switching back and forth between being bald and having a full head of hair every second—it cracked me up. Haha.
I spent 20 mins in aim trainer because I couldn't catch a doll. 10/10 would recommend. I like a lot of the mechanics and unexpected jump scares. The Game is keeping me on my toes. I'm not trying to spoil too much but the gambling.... Well, I will just say this KIA BOYS WE UPPPP!!!!!!!
