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): 2.14/day in the week to Aug 25 → 3.14/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 24 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 9 places towards #1, and the 2,419 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
The legendary game where it all started. Kickstarting an award-winning series in style, Layers of Fear plunges you into a tale of madness and artistic compulsion as you take on the role of The Painter determined to complete his magnum opus at all costs.
As you roam the painter’s decaying home, the world warps to reflect his crumbling sanity. Memories blur into sinister visions, rooms twist into nightmares, and each discovery draws you closer to the truth behind his masterpiece – and the obsession that destroyed him.
Created by the modern-day masters of horror – Bloober Team – the original Layers of Fear is renowned for this immersive and tense atmosphere. Prepare for a haunting journey into the depths of the human psyche.
Psychedelic Horror – The unstable environment reacts to your fragile state of mind, reshaping itself when you look away.
Victorian Setting – Explore a game world inspired by iconic paintings, architecture and décor from the 19th century.
Original and Classic Art – Numerous pieces of original art and music flesh out the game’s storyline and its richly-detailed locations.

No está mal, no es de terror puro pero si da algún susto. Encima es cortito

14 of 15 markets; the rest we haven't asked for this title, not markets where it is unavailable.
14 on sale1 answered “not sold”0 we did not ask
The 1 “not sold” market is read from the Steam price pass of Sep 14: 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.

This game was BRILLIANT, I got jumpscared so hard by the doll it sent me flying out of my chair. The visuals are stunning considering when this game was made. Enjoyed it and it was well worth buying in my opinion.
The gameplay was boring graphics r good and as a person with motion sickness this game made me feel SICK AF
5/10
I'm now a professional drawer opener. Thank you, devs, for this walking, drawer-opening, light-switching simulator. Q: Would I recommend? A: No. [+] 1) Good performance 2) Good, somewhat unique graphics [-] 1) Walking simulator 2) Drawer-opening simulator 3) Light-switching simulator 4) Loud noises 5) Jumpscare simulator 6) Some bugs 7) No substance 8) Almost non-existent directional sound Conclusion: 2/10
太震撼了,刚开局懵懵懂懂的还在操作。玩到后面,每一个细节,每一个场景都特别震撼,太美了,又恐怖又怪异 刚看商品展示的时候没什么感觉,毕竟我不太喜欢美术素材的恐怖题材,可他这个给我一种很新奇,眼前一亮的感觉。我游玩时做的就是解谜,然后拍照 真的太太太太震撼了 很适合那些喜欢摄影的来玩
beautiful psycholoigcal horror. puzzles and exploration abound. be patient and enjoy the journey. rather simple and easy gameplay and mechanics: good for a beginner or someone newer to gaming. a classic and beloved game for a reason. finished it once years ago and recently decided to buy it for myself. doesn't require insane specs to play.
恐怖与艺术的结合,表现力十分不错 心理恐怖也是不同于视觉恐怖的一种优秀的表现方式 哪怕是将近十年前的作品,现在品尝依旧十分有味
