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): 3.29/day in the week to Aug 29 → 7.57/day in the week after.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 4.5/day in the week to Jul 19 → 7.71/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 2,404 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
Welcome to Phonopolis.
A new puzzle adventure hand-crafted by Amanita Design, the studio behind Machinarium, Creaks, Samorost and more.
In the dystopian city of Phonopolis, life is orchestrated by omnipresent loudspeakers that dictate every aspect of people’s existence. Citizens, bound by the authoritarian Leader's commands, work in unison to achieve his grand vision. Soon, the Absolute Tone—a tone so strong that it would strip every citizen of their humanity forever—will be heard…
By coincidence or perhaps by fate, young dustman Felix becomes the only per son to consciously recognize the threat. Now, he must try to stop the Leader from indefinitely making every citizen a mindless servant. Loosely inspired by the works of Karel Čapek and George Orwell, the story of Phonopolis explores themes of social manipulation and individualism, but keeps the overall experience playful and light-hearted.
With Felix becoming immune to the commands, you’ll be able to take advantage of the loudspeakers and use them to solve puzzles involving other characters. Other times, you will interact with the cardboard environment in surprising, often unexpected ways—turn walls, shuffle floors, control various machinery or tear paper curtains. Each puzzle is carefully integrated into the world and presents a different challenge.
Metaphorically referring to the utopian, totalitarian model of society, Phonopolis is a city built of actual cardboard. Capturing the nostalgic charm of classic stop-motion films, every piece of any building, every character, and every frame of any smoke or flame is hand-painted on a piece of paper, then digitized for use in the game’s 3D world.
The art style is strongly influenced by avant-garde artistic trends of the interwar period such as constructivism, futurism, and suprematism, and their societal impact as a tool of propaganda. The distinct visuals come to life with music from Tomáš Dvořák aka Floex, composer of soundtracks for Machinarium and Samorost 3.

Naprosto skvělá a svěží hra. Nepřestává mě udivovat nápaditost a smysl pro detail tvůrců. Všechno do sebe krásně zapadá, nic v příběhu ani v ovládání nedrhne. Vizuál je pecka, o hudbě nemluvě. Velice se mi líbily tmavé snové pasáže, kterými je děj prokládán. Bomba od začátku až do konce, myslím, že se zatím jedná o moji oblíbenou!
Однозначно рекомендую! Отличный дизайн, атмосфера, уместные головоломки. Персонально меня радует отсутствие инвентаря с хламом, который используется самым неожиданным обращом.

Short but a huge passion project for one of my favorite devs. Great game!
No words to describe this game, absolute video game!
Phonopolis – это первый трёхмерный проект студии Amanita Design. И, в отличие от других её игр, где персонажи издавали непонятные звуки, здесь используется обычная речь. Действие игры разворачивается в городе Фонополис, которым правит авторитарный лидер. Город усеян громкоговорителями, которые заставляют людей беспрекословно выполнять приказы. Жителям также стирают память о былых временах, и они не видят сны. Однажды главный герой по имени Феликс находит наушники, из-за чего громкоговорители перестают на него действовать. Освободившись из-под их влияния, он пытается свергнуть лидера и освободить остальных. Игра может похвастаться интересным визуальным стилем: всё окружение и модели были сделаны из картона и оцифрованы. Геймплей такой же как всегда у этих разработчиков: нужно ходить и решать головоломки, нажимая на объекты на экране. Получилось достаточно увлекательно. Мне нравятся все их игры, но какого-то сильного восторга они у меня давно не вызывали. Но Phonopolis – это, наверное, первая их игра со времен «Машинариума», которая мне прям зашла. Так что советую.
Хорошая игруха на вечер, даёт хороший мозговой штурм
Nice story and style
Neat! Puzzles are often a bit arbitrary, but that’s not rare for the genre, and probably the only bad thing I have to say about Phonopolis. It sounds great, looks great, feels great to play. The narrative is simple but cute. It’s very neat!
Otro maravilloso trabajo de Amanita. Está lleno de detalles y mecánicas interesantes y satisfactorias que debéis experimentar. ¡Abajo con el líder! Mi opinión más pausada en Todas Gamers: https://todasgamers.com/2026/05/28/analisis-de-phonopolis/
