Prices
Each in the currency that store quoted — not converted: the gap between two rows is the publisher's pricing, not an exchange rate.
Availability
We put this game to every storefront we collect. A market that answered not sold has told us something about the game; a market we never asked has not, and the two are never drawn the same.
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): 1.67/day in the week to Aug 4 → 1.86/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 2,402 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.

AHHHHHHH que musicasso
tiene demasiados problemas con el audio y tirones constantes, algo muy molesto para un juego que recae en la inmersión. tengo especificaciones sobradas y ni así se puede. no encontré ninguna solución al problema. El juego esta lleno de referencias a películas clásicas de terror legendarias como scream, halloween o incluso juegos como silent hill. sin embargo estos errores me sacaron de quicio, especialmente porque el juego depende altamente de el audio La historia hasta donde llegue es buena, creo yo nada del otro mundo pero te entretiene lo suficiente para jugarlo una noche tranquila. Por el estado del juego, no lo recomendaría, tampoco he visto que tenga mucho interés en arreglarlo entonces no creo continuarlo pronto.

The 1 “not sold” market is read from the Steam price pass of Aug 30: that day the store answered for this game elsewhere and gave no price there. The 14 priced markets are the same rows as the table above — each the latest price we hold, dated here when it is older than that pass. The 0 marked “not asked” were not put to this store at all — either it has no storefront there or we do not collect it yet, and neither is a statement about the game. A refusal is a refusal on one day; a store can list a title again tomorrow.

Хорошая и очень атмосферная игра. Интересный сюжет, где от твоих решений зависит жизнь других людей. Практически всю игру была в напряжении из-за открытых дверей и отсутствия функции запереть их нафиг. Поэтому, 10 открытых дверей из 10
Un viaje nostálgico que no sabía que necesitaba Como alguien que hizo radio en su adolescencia, Killer Frequency me voló la cabeza. La sensación de estar en la cabina rodeada de botones, discos y neones es perfecta, me atrapó desde el vamos Lo que más me gustó es la interactividad. Acá tenés que estar a mil, tocando botones, buscando mapas y poniendo vinilos mientras gestionás el caos de la ciudad por el micrófono. La jugabilidad es súper táctil y satisfactoria, y la atmósfera te transporta a los 80 de una forma increíble. Aunque es cortito (unas 4-5 horas), la historia es súper sólida y te mantiene en tensión constante ------------------------------------------- A nostalgic trip I didn't know I needed As someone who did radio back in my teens, Killer Frequency absolutely blew my mind. The feeling of being in the booth surrounded by buttons, vinyls, and neon lights is perfect; I was hooked from the get-go. What I loved most was the interactivity. You have to be "on" all the time, hitting buttons, checking maps, and queuing records while managing the city's chaos over the mic. The gameplay feels super tactile and satisfying, and the atmosphere transports you to the 80s in an incredible way. Even though it’s a short experience (around 4-5 hours), the story is solid and keeps you in constant tension.
Olha, já dando a nota, seria 8/10. Agora, parando um momento para analisar e levando em consideração o meu gosto pessoal: É um jogo muito bom, sendo sincero, mas tem muitos momentos em que ficamos parados apenas ouvindo, sem ter muito o que fazer. Você fica ali colocando música, jogando bolinha de papel no lixo à distância e esperando as coisas acontecerem. Mas eu não julgo tanto esses momentos, porque, ao mesmo tempo, são neles que acontecem algumas das melhores partes do jogo. É quando podemos ouvir as conversas, escolher os diálogos e interagir com os outros personagens. Isso fez com que eu gostasse muito de todos eles. Dá para perceber a raiva, felicidade, tristeza, esperança e muitos outros sentimentos. Sei que isso também se deve muito às atuações dos dubladores, mas mesmo assim fez com que eu criasse um carinho enorme pelo jogo e pelos personagens. As interações com os personagens são uma das coisas que mais gostei. Eles têm diálogos interessantes até sobre coisas aleatórias, mas tudo parece tão natural que em nenhum momento eu me senti enjoado de conversar com eles. E o fato de suas escolhas poderem tanto ajudar a salvar alguém quanto prejudicar outra pessoa é o que faz esse jogo ser tão bom para mim. Você realmente sente que suas decisões têm algum peso. Claro que existem alguns momentos que, para mim, não são tão interessantes. Como eu disse antes, ficar preso dentro de uma sala sem ter muito o que fazer pode ser um pouco cansativo, talvez justamente porque eu não gosto muito de ficar parado apenas ouvindo. No geral, porém, gostei bastante do jogo. Acho que os personagens, os diálogos, as escolhas e principalmente a forma como você acaba criando carinho por eles fazem *Killer Frequency* valer muito a pena.
I didn’t expect a game about running a radio station to be this stressful the atmosphere is on point the characters feel real and every choice had me second guessing myself I like how it builds tension without relying on cheap jump scares
If you're into a game with a cool art style that feels indie yet has a very rich gameplay experience, then this is the game for you. A very chill game with a subtle spooky element to it. Adding onto the experience is an engaging murder mystery paired along with various puzzles that give this game a We Are Here vibe minus the co-op. I highly recommend it for those that love engaging with strategy mystery games that want a very niche experience. Not to mention the amazing characters and voice acting that do an excellent job of immersing you into the story. It can be a little pricy for the couple hours of gameplay it provides on top of the lack of replayability for those that rely on new an interesting stories to keep them engaged. I recommend to wait for a sale before purchasing. So keep it on your wishlist and when that notification pops up swoop in and grab it as soon as you can.
Quick Description: -Killer Frequency is a comedy horror murder mystery game. You are a radio DJ that stumbles backwards into saving that town from a deranged, whistling serial killer. The visual style and voice acting are hands down, the star of the show. Unfortunately, this is where the positives end for me. The horror elements are non-existent and the puzzles sprinkled into the game are just as thin. The core gameplay is far too slow, tedious, and repetitive to keep my attention. This is why it has taken me 4 months to play about 5 hrs of this game. Consensus: -Bottom Shelf Game (Tier 5 and makes up 10% of my reviews). I really wanted to like this game, but it's just not for me. It's a shame, b/c a lot of love has been poured into the voice acting, the comedy, and the overall atmosphere. But I grew very tired of walking back and forth across the radio station, just to find another item that has a nugget of information that you need to solve a radio call puzzle. This is just not a game that I can recommend.
This is a really cool game. The pacing is great, and the story is pretty cool, if a bit of a trope. No one said tropes have to be bad, though, and this is really fun. Definitely recommend.
Это очень классный детектив на пару вечеров. Я в восторге. Жаль, что она не особо популярна.
