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): 0.14/day in the week to Aug 28 → 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.
About

Step into the splendor of a Renaissance port city in Sigh of the Abyss, a dark fantasy visual novel with a choice-heavy narrative and optional, inclusive romances.

As the Envoy, you are the product of a bloody ritual—mortal in appearance, yet imbued with the monstrous powers of the Abyss.
The men and women that sacrificed their life for yours guide you with their whispers, showing you how squalor and excess coexist side to side, how most toil while a few feast.

Did the Abyss bestow upon you supernatural strength and agility? Do you have the power to manipulate the shadows and see what they see? Perhaps your dark gift is prying open the minds of others only to break them and have them do your bidding.

The four humors color the tone of your responses and your personality, from the carefree sanguine to the thoughtful phlegmatic, from the anxious melancholic to the fiery choleric.

Will you stay friends, turn into bitter rivals, or seek something more with your companions?
Alpheon seeks refuge in a dissolute life without responsibilities. Without a roof over her head, Sylas resorts to crime to survive. Malec has been entrusted with a blood-stained legacy. As mages, Marané and Ascanio are shackled by their power to a life of isolation.

Pick the romantic preferences of the protagonist to determine who will flirt with you and reciprocate your affection: see only the kind of romantic content you want.

Ever-expanding and always craving for more, the city of Carolise spills out of its walls. Lavish trading posts are established while beggars and vagrants watch, and the divide between nobles and peasants grows into a rift. Who will you save and who will you condemn?

While this game is long, it is one of the reasons I love it. There is so much lore and story telling that it really makes you feel like YOU are actually in the story. I also love how many options there were so it did not make you feel like you had to go down a certain path and once again, it make you feel like you are actually playing a real person. And don't even get me started on the art and the voice acting. <3
I've played through the game twice now, and I can confidently say it's probably the best visual novel I've ever played. The story is fascinating, the characters are intriguing, and I absolutely love the artstyle. I also love that the developer is super receptive to bug reports, I put in one not thinking it would even be seen (and frankly the bug required a pretty niche case) but lo and behold within a day the patch notes dropped to fix that bug. Amazing developer.

The game is a great deal of fun, lots of meaningful choices. Devs are absolutely the best. I had a bug issue and they took the time to resolve it immediately and it didn't break my saves. I'd support them for that alone!
总体来说是很好玩的一个少女游戏,而且很有特色。 1.有一个我非常喜欢的特点,它虽然是一个奇幻世界观,但总体上的故事不是一个战斗还有杀戮的冒险故事,也就是说它并不是一个冒险游戏。它的故事比较生活化和琐碎,女主去解决各种各样较为生活化的问题,以及对生活细节的很多描写,重视从各种生活细节中展现人物的性格。[spoiler]比如一开始很长一段就是四处买东西给Sylas做床垫[/spoiler]。所以它整体的节奏,风格和故事内容都更接近生活,情感和女性化,不是像一般的奇幻游戏一样聚焦于战斗,斗争和冒险。这可能是少女游戏整体的特色,不管内在的题材是什么,总之我很喜欢。 但是有些地方存在的问题是作者没有足够的写作能力来很好地运用这种生活化的写作方式,导致在写作上显得有些破碎,不连贯,一些地方也有些莫名其妙和突兀。所以就会有人觉得过于琐碎和细节,不够刺激等等。 2.既然是少女游戏,那女主肯定要谈恋爱谈恋爱谈恋爱!!!在扮演女主谈恋爱方面我比较满意。这游戏的特点是可以选自己的性取向,例如我不选和男人谈恋爱,就不会有和男人的浪漫互动等等。像我就是女主几乎一直和两个女人腻歪在一起。但是这似乎会导致剧情连贯性上出现一些问题(比如有些地方有男角色的必要互动,这时候会有些突兀)。恋爱方面女性向,互动比较多,比较自然和温暖,融入在整体的故事当中,不是那种突兀的突然出现的事件。并且细节的,琐碎的和生活化的互动也非常多(比如一见面对方会变得非常高兴,突然跳起来冲过来这样)。不会有一种浪漫对象只在恋爱事件里是浪漫对象,平时不熟的感觉。这在类似的游戏中是很优质的,因为我玩过的部分少女游戏就比较缺乏和浪漫对象平常的互动,往往是和整体故事相孤立的浪漫事件。[spoiler]Sylas真的超级超级可爱!!!虽然一开始看起来似乎是帅气的外表,但是实际上非常纯情和少女!!!而且恋爱故事很温暖,温馨。但是看成就比例感觉人气不高?可能因为这种游戏侄女的比例相对来说较高()另外这里剧透一下,这个妹妹是浪漫无性恋,不能做爱,所以要是非常介意的话建议谈另一个。我觉得还挺好的,很让我意外。[/spoiler] 3.总体故事方面的话,我个人是有一些不喜欢的地方。我觉得这方面可能主要是奇幻世界观的通病,就是究竟如何看待权力和力量的问题,这很难写,但是因为涉及剧透就放在剧透里讲了。[spoiler]主线其实主要就是三个大类的结局,成为女神,跟随深渊的召唤将一切打倒重建,以及放弃力量成为凡人。这三个结局都有一些争议的地方,例如成为女神就意味着成为Carolise实际上的寡头统治者之一,在道德上就可能存在争议,放弃力量则意味着之后过凡人的普通的生活,但是envoy和Abyss的问题还是解决不了,就有一种抛弃责任和任人宰割的感觉(虽然这游戏里的人绝大部分都非常好)。这或许是很多奇幻世界观共有的问题,因为有魔法,神力等等烂七八糟的东西,所以这些东西本身就构成了权力的一部分,没有这些玩意的普通人似乎在肉体上就要低等。我第一周目选的是放弃力量,和Sylas一起度过一生。[/spoiler] 4.画面方面的话从宣传视频和图片可以看出来挺不错,属于是比较写实,精致和漂亮的风格。 5.英语方面的话不算太难,但是对我来说生词还是有一些的。因为我们一般学的英语是学术英语,不是全面的,包括生活中的种种的英语。想起来大学里的老师跟我说文革的时候有外国人来中国学习,最后毕业时连枕头的中文都不会,因为每天学的都是什么革命,斗争一类的破玩意。这就是整个中国社会脱离生活,个人权利和自由发展,追求荒诞的宏大集体理想的一个缩影。但是这些就只是我的牢骚罢了。 6.从写作角度来看,作者文笔在这种游戏界只能算是一般偏上的水平。在部分地方的故事发展和情感表达显得有一些不连贯和突兀。总体的语言也可以看出作者对语言的把握能力和描写水平等存在一些小问题。从我的感觉看是作者很像那种还不太熟悉写作的新作家,可能经验和能力还不够。当然也可能只是我不喜欢这特定的写作风格。 7.这游戏其他地方比较明显的缺点或者说问题有这么几个:人物配音不怎么好,很棒读还有奇怪的地方;游戏的UI看起来很差,比较廉价。 所以总的来说,如果单看谈恋爱和画面的话我觉得非常好,但是如果是游戏在故事,文笔,剧情等等方面则有改进的空间。总体上属于是值得玩的很不错的游戏。我是希望这开发者之后的新游戏能够有更多改进,保持自己的特色同时让游戏更精致和值得推敲。
OMG SUCH A GOOD GAME IN EVERYTHING, i ended crying after my first route with malec and my good ending saving everyone! you guys are missing a lot while not getting this game, story is super 10/10 and the Love Interest all of them are so precious, im really glad you guys give them a nice background to all of them, hope you continue doing more VN like this one!
I think it's a good game. Decided to play preview of it and ended up enjoying it enough to buy it! The variety of choice is nice, but if there's one thing that I can complain is the lack of Ascanio CG compared to others😭 Doesn't even have a kiss CG while others have it... Sad day for Ascanio stan but nevertheless it's a good game.
OMG OMGOI MGOMG )KG OMG OMG OMG OMG EEHHH OMGO GMGIOFJGOMG OMG IM SO ATTATCHED TO THESE CHARACTERS SYLAS PLEASE NEVER CHSNGE OKAY BYE
Love this VN - well written with frequent choices that can (often) drastically change the outcome of the story. Definitely a lot of replayability.
Actually feels like a CYOA, character customization game. Very cool
Fantastic visual novel one of the best I have played. Quite a bit of replayability as well.
