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): 0.29/day in the week to Aug 24 → 0.14/day in the week after.
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.

A solid little horror game that sets the mood. You can tell the budget was limited in some areas, but it doesn't matter the game does its job: scaring you.
Überraschend gut. Kommt wirklich sehr nah an From The Darkness ran. Keine 10/10 aber trotzdem ein wirklich gutes Spiel. Spielt das evtl. anschließend mit From The Darkness
this game is actually freaky

[b] P. S. If you have difficulties in the walktrough, this guide will be very useful: [/b] https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3561496240 [h1] What would mom think if I went outside at 10:01 PM: [/h1] The idea is already kind of silly — a paranormal vlogger, abandoned apartment #10 in a stereotypical Soviet-era Russian panel building, at night, with VHS static. In reality, it’s a short, rough-around-the-edges quest pretending to be a full game. What’s wrong: • Gameplay — almost entirely searching for items in a cramped two-room apartment. Most of the time is just mindless pixel hunting. • Totally lacking player interaction or options. No proper survival mechanics, no weapons, no choices — just following a set sequence of actions. The only “action” scene is a one-minute monster chase; the rest is wandering around the apartment, which takes up 85% of the game. • Artificially stretching out the time. Searching for the right items makes you go in circles. Obviously designed so you can’t finish the game in under 2 hours, so you won’t get a refund (I finished the game in about 45 minutes anyway). • Poor hint system. Almost no audio cues, visual markers don’t show up until you hit a very specific corner in the apartment from the right angle — it’s both annoying and breaks the flow of the game. • Optimization and technical stuff. The game is made on Unreal Engine, but it’s clearly not optimized: frame drops, bugs, weird interaction issues. For the price it’s asking, that’s just not acceptable. • And finally — it’s not scary. A couple of sudden sounds is the peak of the ‘horror’ here. Jump scares that are just ‘loud noise’ plus a bunch of clichés that felt old 10–20 years ago don’t have much impact. [REC] Paroxysm is a typical example of a visually attractive indie that tries to be bigger than it really is. Horror Story: Hallowseed is a perfect comparison, yet even it handles it better than this little creation. [h3] Verdict: [/h3] https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3612049014 [i] P. S. 2x. Did you like the review or my profile? Drop a Steam reward for the review. Thanks to your support, I don't lose the point of playing and writing reviews! [/i]
Horror games do not usually scare me. A very little amount of them do. Alien Isolation and Mortuary Assistant are the only two that have legit scared me as an adult. This game scares tf outta me. It doesn't rely on jump scares... just tension. Add it to my list. Please add ultra-wide. Broken on that.
Обычный кривой анриловский хоррор про спиритизм, коих в Стиме миллиарды Пугалки неплохие, но зачастую дешевые. Сама игра выглядит как картонная коробка из-под обуви. Потраченного времени жаль
还行,优化差点
