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/day in the week to Aug 11 → 0/day in the week after.
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 2,400 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.

值得一玩得好遊戲,要玩到另一個結局,對故事了解才會完整一點,但我跑了很久還是不知道分歧點在哪(
What a beautiful game. The story had me hooked from start to finish. While leaving plenty of questions instead of answers, this game has a good amount of choices to keep you busy for a few hours. I am super appreciative that I got to play this game for free. - No major gore involved - No Overly Excessive violent messaging. - Beautiful Graphics - Good Character Design & Personalities - Puzzles with both decent difficulty and simplicity I highly recommend this game for anyone to try. If you like thrillers with a bit of horror involved, then this game will give you a nice time killer. https://youtu.be/MofZWHiHtZ0?si=nf1dw9ep7Y0k0zte

short story to get you thinking
遊戲氛圍很壓抑,要到最後章節有意想不到的溫暖的劇情,但如同遊戲的名這不是HAPPY ENDING 故事還有很多空白等待填滿,替你們加油~
[h1] Recall: Empty Wishes - Review [/h1] [u] Overall Score - 7.7/10 [/u] [i] This game was a rather exceptional find one evening as I mindlessly scrolled through page after page searching for my next title to 100%. It managed to hold and captivate my attention from the very beginning of the game, the soundtrack in this game is beautifully composed and does a fantastic job at tone setting within different scenes throughout the game, adding just the right amount of complexity within the atmosphere. The story, the art, the gameplay while simple was effective enough to allow some basic exploration throughout your journey to discover what exactly has happened to Tommy. The game is rather short to completion, being able to 100% in under 3 hours, so if you are searching for an easy achievement grind, you just stumbled upon the perfect addition to your collection. [/i]
This one was pretty good! I'd rate it as 4/5. As a fan of psychological horror games, I enjoyed it, but I don't feel compelled to find all the secrets and 100% it. If I hadn't gotten stuck at one part for a while and hadn't been idling at one point, I'd estimate my completion time to be around 3.5hrs, and I'm a fast reader. Pros: [list] [*] Pretty good story. [*] Interesting characters. I found all of them pretty compelling, even if one of them had an unfinished (imo) character arc, so each chapter kept my attention. [*] Lovely art, both the pixel art and the CGIs. I took a lot of screenshots! [*] Cool gameplay concept with the phone. [*] You can replay specific chapters after you've finished the game. [/list] Cons: [list] [*] Last chapter had some convoluted puzzle logic. I was walking in circles for a while and got a bit frustrated. [spoiler]In particular, it didn't occur to me to fill the bucket with goo from the mirror. I assumed I needed to use the goo from the batteries or something...[/spoiler] [*] I didn't feel like the supernatural element worked as well as it could have, particularly because [spoiler]Phoebe's character arc just...ends, and she's the one driving that part of the story.[/spoiler]. [/list] Not sure how to unlock the third ending, but I suspect it's related to figuring out a secret phone number. [spoiler]258 stood out to me as the number of nightmares that Tommy had about his mom. 249 also stood out as the days since someone died. But the phone numbers require 8 digits, so...[/spoiler]
Personnellement je ne suis pas du tout rentré dans l'histoire. Je ne comprends pas tous les avis positifs sur le jeu. L'histoire est très floue et me semble très osef.
Went in with low expectations and was pleasantly surprised! The story is told through multiple characters and their perspectives which adds quite a bit of depth to each character. I feel like some dialogues could have been a bit more fleshed out since sometimes characters change their opinions rather quickly within just a few seconds. English translation was pretty good, despite the wording sounding a bit off here and there. In terms of gameplay, it's mostly a walking simulator with some light puzzles (which isn't a bad thing). You might enjoy this if you like games like Mad Father or The Witch's House. Horror elements in this game are very atmospheric. There are no jumpscares but it has some creepy elements to it.
This game was absolutely awesome - I loved the artstyle, the story was deep, it got some veeery disturbing and creepy szenes and Iiked the Charakters <3 hope there will be more games in the future, really enjoyed it <3
It was cool, thanks Dangen for a key :) graphics were outstanding!
