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.

About
Nocturnal is an action game where you play as Ardeshir, a soldier of the Enduring Flame, returning to his homeland, Nahran, after many years of absence.
Following the appearance of a mysterious Mist, the island has recently fallen into chaos, and Ardeshir must wield his flaming sword and use powerful abilities to confront its mysteries and free Nahran.
Repel a dynamically generated Mist that reacts to the flames of your sword.
Carry your flames across Nahran: your blade can also ignite the environment, activate mechanisms, and even destroy creatures born from the Mist.
Defeat enemies and explore the environment to collect ash, which can be offered to Phoenix statues. You'll gain new skills and bonuses vital for your survival.
Explore a compact island offering a streamlined experience centered around a singular concept. (game length: around 3 hours)

I know a lot of people are probably not expecting good free games anymore considering the bunch of slop given for free lately on steam, but trust me, this game wont disappoint. The gameplay is so smooth, the atmosphere is great, the music is fitting, it's definitely a must try. Looking forward to the sequel!
So cool game. Thanks to developers to gave it to free. Going to buy secont game when realese. The first game in that type if setting, so very interesting. Will try anorter games like this

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 Aug 28: 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.
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.

[i]Nocturnal[/i] est une parenthèse vidéoludique réussie de deux heures, où action et plateforme, conjuguées à la 2D, se consument dans un joyeux brasier, comme pour mieux flatter vos pulsions pyromanes. La musique est plaisante, la maniabilité d'une immédiateté confondante, et l'agencement des niveaux attise l'exploration. Sans surprise, cette réussite de [i]Sunnyside Games[/i] a alimenté le financement d'une suite. Mais à moins d'y rejouer [i]ad nauseam[/i] pour établir un record de [i]speedrun[/i], patientez jusqu'aux prochaines soldes afin de vous offrir cette production lausannoise au meilleur prix.
Esta guapisimo, me ha encantado; Aunque su escasa duracion deja poco que desear, su gameplay lo compensa satisfactoriamente, el combate esta super pulido haciendo que te enganche y sea divertido; logrando una facil adaptacion, la mecanica central de avanzar por niveles en 2D, superando obstaculos y enemigos encendiendo tu espada con fuego y enfrentandote a la oscuridad me parecio bastante original. Por otro lado que puedas ganar puntos para canjear en un arbol de habilidades le suman un plus para incentivar a explorar el entorno. Recomendadisimo si te gustan los metroidvania estilo Hollow Knight con un combate excepcional, aunque Nocturnal es mas lineal y es extremadamente corto, se disfruta como una mini experiencia de chill. Nota: 9/10
Nocturnal proves that a game doesn't need to be 80+ hours long to be a satisfying experience. It's a very short and sweet action platformer that's engaging from start to finish. The gameplay feels great and the art style/atmosphere looks amazing, especially when you're whipping your fiery blade in the shadows against enemies or building a path. Additionally, the level selection screen makes replaying previous zones super convenient as well. My only issue was finishing the game just a few points short of a maxed skill tree, only to find out I couldn't obtain any further skill points, even from replaying previous zones from the Level Selection Screen. Despite that minor issue though, I still highly recommend it. They made it free-to-keep for a limited time, back in April, which I thought was cool & generous of them. It's a fun game and honestly can't wait for the sequel!
https://youtu.be/kDUHJFLxths Divertido e bonito, o jogo poderia ser mais longo, mas ao mesmo tempo não é grande demais a ponto de deixar algo repetitivo ou encher o jogo de conteúdo filler, gostei da arte, combate e da pouca exploração que o jogo têm, não encontrei bugs e nem achei a dificuldade injusta ou fácil demais. Veja mais no vídeo!
Charming game. 9/10
Хороший, коротенький платформер
A very short but really cool game with great mechanics Really enjoyed it ! It was interesting from the beginning, had a cool vibe, and kept me hooked the whole time. Definitely worth checking out. and I'm definitely going to buy the next game too.
Прошёл Nocturnal и остался доволен. Проходится за вечер (2-3 часа) Плюсы: • Приятный сюжет и атмосфера с туманом и огнём • Удобный платформинг и динамичная боёвка • Главная механика с горящим мечом работает круто и в бою, и в исследовании • Не затягивает, не надоедает Игра небольшая, без лишнего, но сделана качественно. Если любите компактные платформеры — рекомендую.
