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/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 25 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 10 places towards #1, and the 2,413 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
Howl is a turn-based puzzle/tactical folktale set in the Middle Ages, where a mysterious "howling plague" ravages the land. Any who hear the beasts’ howls turn into feral, hungering beasts themselves – further spreading the curse through their own howls. The Heroine of this tale was born deaf, giving her a unique protection against this curse.
Play as a daring combat Prophet with the ability to foretell your enemies’ moves. Plan up to six steps ahead to outmaneuver your enemies. Fire a variety of arrows, such as exploding, lightning, or piercing shots, and use skills like Smoke Bombs and Shadow Step’s Invisibility to kill any beasts who stand in your way. Each type of beast offers its own challenges, with some approaching fast, while others taking more powerful hits or attacking from afar.
Howl's visuals are created through "living ink", a flowing art style that paints the story as you play. Carve your way through a dark, fairy-tale world made up of obscure yet magical places where you fight to rid the lands of the howling plague.
Howl features a total of 5 chapters, including the free Heart of Rot update, each with a distinct visual atmosphere scored by soothing music.
Embark on this side-story to the Capital, a city that long stood as a bastion of hope in a world overrun by howling beasts. The Prophet has heard rumors that the alchemists there have found a cure for the Howl. When she arrives, she finds a city consumed by rot ...

This update features its own chapter map, new enemies, a new boss level, new environment mechanics, the new Lightning Shot skill (which, once unlocked, can be used in the main game!), and an NPC who fights by your side in later levels.

Very creative unique game with fun mechanics and multiple ways to win you get new options and abilitys often enough to not get bored of the game
HOWL: A Review Howl has you follow a Deaf huntress as she navigates through various areas, levels, and events, fighting off wolf-like monsters of varying difficulty with an array of weapons and abilities in the search for her family member. The game has a unique mechanic to it in that it's combat is "fragmented" (for a lack of better term) into steps, each that moves you to either attack, maneuver, or be attacked in a single turn. This puzzle like strategy game will have you thinking ahead, setting up "traps" and dealing with enemies as you save NPC's, kill monsters, and make it to the areas exit. Overall a very fun experience, with a beautiful art style to compliment it. 9/10

Howl is a quick, easy-to-pick up strategy-puzzle game with a gorgeous artstyle and atmosphere. The game is relatively easy to learn but 100%ing every level is a fun challenge. The team behind this game released a whole new chapter for free as a DLC, and clearly put a huge amount of love and effort into the game.
Great style, good gameplay.
Très bon jeu !
Great game. The achievements are a little bugged, but other than that, it accomplishes everything and is a lot of fun. The puzzles are just the right amount of difficulty, the aesthetic is there, the plot doesn't distract nor feel lacking, everything feels as it should be.
really neat puzzle game. pure quality
Very neat, very well executed.
It has really good art direction and the puzzles are satisfying to complete fully. They even added a free expansion earlier this year! I definitely recomend this if you like puzzle games. I remember playing the demo for this in a Next Fest and loving it, and its already been two years since it came out! How(l) did a game like this fall through the cracks?
狼の遠吠えを聞くとその人もまた狼になってしまうという病がはびこる国を、耳の聞こえないろう者の主人公が狼たちを倒しながら旅をする、半分ストラテジー、半分パズルなステージクリア型ゲーム。 射程無限だが３本しかない矢を他の能力を使っていかに節約するか、人を狼にせず助けられるか平行して考えるのおもしろい。 アコギによる静かだけど情熱的なBGMがかっこよすぎたな～。
