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): 1.57/day in the week to Aug 10 → 8.86/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 2,419 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.

夯,锈湖系列最神的一作
This is by far my favorite Rusty Lake game. Not many come close, except maybe Underground Blossom. There's many things I love about it, such as the family tree aspect, the alchemy aspects, and just simply how MACABRE it is. The game spans from 1859-1935, to my knowledge the longest span out of every Rusty Lake game. It also covers the largest part of the family and ties up many loose ends left in previous games. With the release of the new game Servant of the Lake, we now have a fuller view of the family tree than ever before, making this game even more of a masterpiece. I highly recommend this game to anyone with a tolerance for mild gore.

好玩的 我诡异地挺擅长锈湖游戏 唯一看攻略的地方是因为太文盲……
never loved another game like this
好玩
일단 퍼즐이랑 추리하는건 진짜 재미있게 플레이했습니다. 저는 스토리를 좀 더 깊게 알고싶은데 게임에 번역 문제가 많아 아쉬웠습니다.
Ambiance glauque et mystérieuse et des énigmes très bien conçues. C'est un chouette jeu, comme tout ceux de la licence ! (Mais j'ai parfois eu du mal à suivre l'histoire sur plusieurs générations)
incredible game with rich story
解谜玩爽了!还有番外篇更是意外之喜,得需要点联想能力和脑洞的,最后的合成小游戏也是怒配半小时好吧
