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): 1.43/day in the week to Sep 1 → 0.86/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.

短,但没有嘉豪,所以剧情观感舒服了不少
本作有些短,更像是一部外传。 换位思考下小梨花的内核真的很强大了,是个厉害且萌萌的小女孩口牙。玩完又感觉大石很无辜捏,但前几部实在是喜欢不起来。
Абсолютное кино
虽然龙骑士07让我们享受推理,但是不知道你们有没有想过,推理实际上是一种剧透 如果你推理出了一些真相,那么你对接下来的剧情走向也会有一定程度的把控,会先入为主 最后就少了那种一次性了解全部真相,一次性串联全部线索的震撼感 有时候不带脑子看剧情是一件好事 先留着悬念,然后再一次性把悬念揭开,这或许比推理更加印象深刻,更加震撼
Ragebaitrashi: When I cry 4 Uh idk how to rlly feel ab this one, it was kinda a nothing soulless burger but better than what is expected of higu. Its a lil worse than 3 with 3 being the best so far. In the party game it literally says this is the best part of higurashi now at the end of the question arcs cuz u can have fun theorizing, no, no u cant. Chars r bland, annoying, or weird. Plot points that lead to questions don't allow for enough led room for interesting conclusions. Danganronpa's battle of truth and lies is a way better format of whats going on here with "is it human or supernatural". The premise is cool but just per usual, the execution is lacking. Tell me how Aizawa is essentially a special services cop given orders by the prime minister or whatever to save his son sent to hinimizawa on this super important mission yet Ooishi is more prepared and capable than him. Aizawa doesn't even draw his gun at first sight of danger within known YAKUZA TERRITORY. He would rather hand to hand combat yakuza members within their own territory with who KNOWS how many their are that can easily overpower and kill them. I remember them saying something about rules of not being able to kill a fleeing criminal by shooting them but what does that have to do with just drawing out the gun in the first place to keep yourself safe!? This dude aizawa is a wannabe dollar store version of Leon S. THE GOAT Kennedy both sent to save the children of super important people. I don't want to hear the excuse of OH this is a horror story they have to be clumsy and dumb. NO THEY DONT, THAT ONLY WORKS FOR MOVIES BECAUSE ITS A SHORT EXPERIENCE THIS IS HOURS UPON HOURS OF A VN BRO STOP. THERE ISNT EVEN ANY HORROR THEY R JUST FIGHTING YAKUZA MEMEBERS AND LOOKING DUMB AND UNPREPARED. AND EXPLAIN WHY THEY OBVIOUSLY DECIPHER THE DOCTOR BEING PART OF THE YAKUZA AND KIDNAPPERS YET OOISHI AND AIZAWA ARE FINE BEING TREATED BY HIM LATER?! DUDE ENEMY TERRITORY HELLO!? Most non-sensical story every blud dont even joke lad. Started 5 and its looking ok but nothings certain with this Ryukishi writer guy he makes the story terrible in the most unexpected ways its kinda entertaining. Its like laughing at a bad movie for how bad it is. I wouldnt recommend buying ANY of these games waste of money there is quite literally no value so far other than making fun of it and crying. Perhaps that is... "when they cry".. it was us the audience all along.. that was the goal of the story...
nipaaaah!!! also the only game where ooishi wasnt an ass
总觉得爱吃咖喱的短发蓝毛中分女很眼熟,结果真的是希耶尔呢~
