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 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.

Fajne bo mroczne i dające do myślenia. Kolejna niesamowita. prosta gra od Rusty Lake. Polecam za kilka złotych kupić i ograć :)

One of my favorite Rusty Lake games so far. The family tree concept makes the story really engaging, and each chapter feels unique with its own puzzles and atmosphere. The puzzles are challenging but fair, and the creepy art style, music, and dark humor create an unforgettable experience. If you enjoy point-and-click puzzle games with a surreal story, this is definitely worth playing.

The ability to reset a level did not seem to work if that level was finished. I had to restart the game to get an achievement I missed; design in later games works better for this issue. Other than that, interesting expansion of the lore. I am new to the series with Servant of the Lake's release and have been working my way through the games chronologically, so this is my third Rusty Lake game. It's cool to see how both the games and the Vanderbooms evolved over time.
This was a great game with unpredictable twists to the typical clue centered game. I took my time and in the end, well, you are still not done. This was a great way to spend a rainy day.
Truly a rusty lake classic
个人感觉是整个系列里面最烧脑的一部,体量也很大
