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.

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.

This game was surprisingly fun. The eerie atmosphere—such as the sensation of someone or something breathing right behind you or a lurking presence at the edge of your vision—was masterfully executed, even if the ghosts of coal miners did keep popping up. The sound design of the environment was incredibly realistic, featuring creaking noises, constant vibrations, and the sound of falling debris. These elements heightened the tension by instilling a constant fear that the structure might collapse at any moment.
Man this game was sooo good! i wasnt expecting so many jump scares and just completely dark and haunting, i was getting bloody valentine and as above so below vibes forsure idk why ppl complaining about the game you aint no true horror fan if you cant even enjoy this which i did but idgaf ppl have there own preference so i would recommend 10/10 no bs!

Game started off pretty good. I was fresh out of college and sent to do some journalism on this mine? and well that's as far as I got. Poor me, could not find the dang key to open the gate to walk across a bridge to get inside??? it is my bad. I'm not patient enough to play these games anymore.. but its a good game and interesting menu screen. (time to watch some YouTube vids of this though) It has my curiosity .. *(i should have played the demo first .. no brainer there). sigh .. live and learn.
The atmosphere felt promising and the game started off creepy, quickly just turned to frustrating with the walking speed and having to wait for triggers for doors to open.
Bad gim
Nice game. Well done. Good graphics. Not over done with jump scares. I would have liked to save the game where I want but glad it did save at accomplishments.
Надо было поиграть в демо прежде чем покупать, ужасно скучная ходи туда сюда и ищи триггер
Gameplay Completo: https://youtu.be/zlGaDpGitTM El juego ta brutal sobre todo la parte del principio fuera d la mina. Ya luego se vuelve un poco repetitivo pero esta muy bien.
Una puta mierda de juego que no funciona con mando, no comprar.
Сначала хотел дропнуть, но потом втянулся. Любителям Пенумбры может зайти.
