Swan Song is a cozy puzzle game that invites you to slow down, listen, and reflect. Set inside a magical music box, each puzzle asks players to place notes on a musical scale. When you turn the key, the composition plays, activating platforms and opening paths that guide a small swan to safety.

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.

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.

Swan Song is a cozy and emotional puzzle game. Use notes of different shapes and sizes to program a music box and solve each puzzle. Help the swan reach the exit as you uncover a touching story of family, loss and grief.
Each puzzle is a piece of music waiting to be written. Place musical notes on your scale. Their position determines which platforms activate when the melody plays. Once you’ve composed your solution, turn the key and let the music guide the swan through the level.
Perfect timing and thoughtful placement are the keys to success. Between puzzles, a touching narrative slowly unfolds, revealing the story of the music box’s creator and the family it was made for.
You discover an old, mysterious music box filled with personal artifacts. This was the creator’s final masterpiece, his “swan song”. Lovingly crafted as a tribute to his family.
With every puzzle you solve, fragments of his story come to light. What happened to the family? What secrets does the box hold? Let the music lead you through a story of grief, memories & regret.
CONTENT WARNING:
Please be aware that the story of Swan Song deals with themes of death & terminal illness.
We will update Swan Song with some free updates in the months after release. These of course include some bug fixes, but we also have some additional content planned! Later this year you can expect to get your hands on the level editor, so you can create your own levels and share them on the steam workshop. This level editor will also get some updates with platforms and additional mechanics never seen in the main story! We will also be working on proper controller & better Steam Deck support. A console release of Swan Song is something we really want to do! We are working on it, but don't have an exact release plan for it yet. Stay tuned for more!

Swan Song is a puzzler with snippets of story that describe the impact of tragedy and loss on a family. Each puzzle is a music box with a wooden swan and multiple moving parts. The objective is to create a path that moves the swan from its starting point to a marked destination. Your path consists of tiles and obstacles that are shifted and turned according to how you have arranged a series of musical notes. Sounds easy? Think again! The game consists of 9 levels with 12 music boxes each. Then there are 18 bonus boxes. Do the math and this is a lot of puzzles. Artifacts and mementos with narration are scattered among the puzzles and these tell an emotional tale of grief and dysfunction. New puzzle mechanics are gently introduced along the way, which means that you are challenged from start to finish. The original music provides a chill background with synthesizer tones that create a “music box” atmosphere. The voice acting is professionally done. Overall, it is a solid puzzle game with a heart. Progress is automatically saved. If you leave an individual puzzle unfinished, that specific puzzle will be reset when you return. Loading back to a prior save point is not intuitive. You must select the level and specific puzzle you were working on to get back to your exit point. Most Steam achievements are awarded by completing levels, with a couple related to hidden puzzles. Once you have finished a level, you can return to any point (music box or artifact) within that level. Despite the variety created by evolving puzzle mechanics and increasing difficulty, I grew a bit weary of the music box motif. If you don’t mind repetition, then I recommend Swan Song. It will touch your heart and stretch your mind.

Nothing unfamiliar with puzzle solvers here, a music box can be considered an iconic instrument in the puzzle game genre, with its old & compact appearance, it makes us feel like time travelling to the past in any story we're going though. [b]Swan song[/b] has a brilliant concept of placing music notes in the correct positions to time the platforms movement, activate objects, help the swan jump to its destinations. The main story, about the puzzles, they ain't require much effort to complete, new mechanic each stage and mixed up with old ones, nothing difficult, but the experience feels more mental challenging with each letter, memorial item revealed along the way instead, and you might already know about swans symbolism... I'm looking forward to future updates with new stuff they promised. hope something could blow my mind up maybe~
全9章。1章当たり12問。全108問+α。 オルゴールのような機械仕掛けの盤面と動きが見ていて楽しい。 盤面のコンパクトさに加えて「予め用意された音符を楽譜の何処かに配置する」形なので、パズルとしては易しめの部類。とはいえ、章が進むにつれて様々な捻りが出てくるので、易し過ぎるということもありません。 合間合間の演出から徐々に語られるストーリーに加えて、最終的にそれがパズルのモチーフに繋がる流れは体験としてとても良かったです。 日本語非対応ですが、パズルに関しては言語に依存せず(=テキストによる説明が無く)、字幕も丁寧(発言だけでなく状況を示す音の説明も含む形)なので、特に支障無く楽しめました。
とてもユニークで良いパズルゲーム。 4拍子の表拍でギミックが、裏拍で白鳥が動き、白鳥がゴールに到達できるよう何拍子目でギミックを動かすかを考えるパズルになっている。章ごとにギミックが増えていき、パズルも複雑になっていくが、難易度もほどよい。 言語はパズル部分には全く影響しないため、言語が非対応でも気軽に遊んでみてほしい。
It was truly an honor to playtest this game and translate it to Brazilian Portuguese! It's a very charming and comfy puzzle game with a very touching story about family and loss accompanying progressively harder puzzles that take place inside a literal music box. I love it quite a lot, and can't recommend it enough! --- Foi realmente uma honra fazer o playtest deste jogo e traduzir ele para o Português Brasileiro! Esse é um jogo de puzzle bem charmoso e confortável com uma história tocante sobre família e perda, acompanhando puzzles que se tornam progressivamente mais difíceis que se passam dentro de uma caixa de músicas. Eu amo muito esse jogo, e não posso recomendar suficientemente!
Terima kasih Business Goose Studios atas kesempatannya bisa kontribusi menerjemahkan Swan Song ke Bahasa Indonesia. Terima kasih juga untuk Steam key nya. Game (Swan Song) ini game puzzle yang menggunakan kotak musik sebagai mekanismenya. Cara solvingnya cukup nempatin not musik di posisi tertentu, dan posisi not itu menentukan platform mana yang aktif saat kotak musiknya dimainkan. Ada 9 chapters dengan total 108 puzzles (Beberapa ada level rahasia). Tiap chapter punya platform dengan mekanisme yang berbeda, dan ada beberapa not musik unik seperti Glass Notes, Shiny Notes, dan Ghost Notes. Jadi game cukup menantang. Dan nantinya bakal ada Level Editor. Jadi kalian bisa buat level sendiri dan bisa di share ke Steam Workshop. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3738937530 https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3738931002 https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3739035557
Не ожидала, что такая маленькая головоломка может рассказать такую большую историю, которая тронула меня до глубины души
Nice cozy puzzle game with decent mechanics and a touching (and very well-voiced), melancholy narrative. I found it best tackled in short bursts as did get a little fatiguing tackling too many levels in one sitting. Fortunately, the game lends itself well to a pick-up-and-put-down playstyle. I did encounter a recurring bug on Steamdeck where I sometimes lost sound effects (but not other audio). Worth the price of entry. Try the demo and if you like it, then the full game is pretty much more of the same but with extra mechanics introduced as you progress through chapters.
퍼즐의 재도전이 쉬워 많이 머리를 쓰지 않아도 풀리고 챕터마다 새롭고 직관적인 기믹들이 나와서 재밌게 즐기기도 좋았어요 슬프지만 감동적인 이야기와 좋은 음악은 퍼즐을 풀어가는 목표를 만들어 줘서 그 부분도 괜찮았구요 한글이 없지만 퍼즐을 푸는데에는 영어가 전혀 필요치 않고 온전히 스토리 해석에만 필요해요 스토리도 많이 길지 않은 문서와 보이스 형식으로 되어있어서 큰 부담도 되지 않고요 가볍게 즐길 스토리 혹은 퍼즐 게임이 필요하시면 해보시길 추천드려요
