Ein sehr lustiger kleiner 2D plattformer
i went through the the game expecting it to be mid after reading the comments, but it turned out great best fun i had in a while. i really don't understand the hate on the gameplay it was pretty solid and i had no issues. i had so much fun in fact that i platinumed it without even being bored for a single second. if you are wondering it os worth the money, YEAH IT IS! but i would probably get it on sale as it has pretty low prices and they happen often. The story is funny and refreshing in way, it kept me on my toes the whole game, and hats off to the general voice actor he nailed it.

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.

ознакомился для галочки, из-за the chinese room в разработчиках и копеечной стоимости ключа. может конечно для apple arcade (откуда игра родом) хорошо подходят такие однокнопочные платформеры, но на пк подобный геймплей натурально вызывает сонливость плюсик сценаристам за въедливый подход к сеттингу: не просто упоминаются, а играют важную роль в сюжете "земля санникова", "плутония" и даже менквы из ханты-мансийской мифологии
第一关就遇到bug了,暴龙抬头间隔远小于跑路时间。arcade通关过的,发现下架了steampy0.15买的,我说怎么这么棒的游戏这个价,开发商移植太拉了
Красивая приятная легкая игра на вечер, ну а почему бы ее не пройти?
Fun game with hilarious dialogue and interesting story elements
Muy cortito, pero está divertido. Puntos en contra, la cámara a veces te tapa al personaje, y las recompensas, ni las ves.
Nu 2 "afleveringen" gespeeld maar vind het wel erg mooi, Grafisch erg mooi en hou wel van die Russische accent en de humor
Orpheus is a visually stunning project with a creative and hilariously funny story that had me chuckling in my chair on several occasions. It reminded me of a Sony exclusive due to its incredibly high production value. For parents, this is a great little title to spend a family afternoon playing with their children. Certain story elements and jokes are intended only for adults, which is fantastic for engaging parents in the experience as much as the kids. The game is split into eight episodes of around 20-25 minutes each, with a longer bonus ninth episode. All episodes end on a cliffhanger, making the experience ideal for families who prefer limited screen time by playing one episode an evening, which also sparks family conversations. Orpheus manages to appeal to both children and adults for different reasons, doing a pretty decent job in the process. The regular Steam price of Little Orpheus is only £4.99, which is fantastic value, making it a must-pick-up for all. Orpheus gets a solid 8/10 from me, and I'm glad I gave it my time.
[h1]Little Orpheus[/h1] – [h2][i]Ein kleines Abenteuer, das man spielen kann, aber nicht muss[/i][/h2] [u]Little Orpheus[/u] ist ein Platformer, den man durchaus mal anwerfen kann, wenn man etwas Leichtes für zwischendurch sucht – aber man sollte seine Erwartungen lieber im Zaum halten. [i]Das Spiel wirkt charmant, keine Frage, doch vieles bleibt eher an der Oberfläche.[/i] Die Steuerung ist ein gutes Beispiel dafür: Sie reagiert spürbar träge, fast so, als würde der Held erst einmal überlegen, ob er wirklich springen möchte. Mit Maus und Tastatur ist das Ganze zwar benutzbar, aber eben nicht wirklich präzise. [i]Für ein Spiel, das auf Timing setzt, ist das manchmal etwas frustrierend.[/i] Die Story ist sehr dünn, aber immerhin witzig erzählt. Sie ist schnell vorbei und fühlt sich eher wie eine kleine Anekdote an als wie ein richtiges Abenteuer. [i]Trotzdem hat sie ihren eigenen Charme und sorgt für ein paar Schmunzler.[/i] [u]Grafisch macht Little Orpheus einen soliden Eindruck, aber es ist nichts, was lange im Gedächtnis bleibt.[/u] [i]Es ist ein Spiel, das man einmal durchspielt, kurz lächelt – und dann wahrscheinlich wieder vergisst.[/i] [h3][i]Fazit:[/h3][/i] Man kann es spielen, wenn man gerade Lust auf etwas Kleines und Humorvolles hat. Aber man sollte nicht zu viel erwarten. Für ein paar entspannte Stunden ist es okay – mehr aber auch nicht (4 Stunden Gesamtspielzeit)
