Prices
Each in the currency that store quoted — not converted: the gap between two rows is the publisher's pricing, not an exchange rate.
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 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.

Reviews
Absolutly recommended. Like, this game went on sale for so cheap with the DLC you don´t even have a choice! First of all a good laught: "The game may not run very good because your PC is bad" "Runs at stable 60fps no problems ever" "Game runs better then it tells me" To be more serious, this game has some really good puzzles with some minimal options, in the end you have a handful of things to work with, and never are all included. They´re all intheir little "puzzlebox" with some optional extra puzzles where you have to think outside the box. Also there´s a nice story going on in form of audiologs and text files, I sadly only noticed like halfway through and started reading everything just then, I got it at the end tho and it´s a bit of a sad one too. I have finished in like 20h and got to the end, I still have a few things left to do and the DLC, I hope tho the DLC is as good as the basegame. Only needed a videoguide for like 3 puzzles were I was really stuck. And the only bad thing I can think about that some of the staar puzzles are really confusing/hidden, one literally requiring third party software or specific knowledge about numbers. And, but that last one comes from a completionist side: I have to replay the game again for dialouge options close towards the end, there´s only a handful of backups to choose from and sadly none were close to where that dialouge happend. BUT there is a really good guide by "*John Evil Gamer" to help with them, not just telling the awnser but giving small hints you can use to figure it out yourself.

positive critical· bar length = how often the theme comes up
This is not just one of the best puzzle games I've ever played, it's also an incredible, philosophical experience about morality and what it means to be human. The only criticism I have is the replay value. If you want to experience all dialogue options, you might have to play the whole game a second time, which is just not interesting in puzzle games, because you already know all the solutions.
a beautiful mind enigma , akin to a supernatural phenomenon like NHS
This is a super fun puzzle game sprinkled with interesting philosophical questions and partial works of classic literature. Originally I thought it was too short, but 30 hours of solving puzzles ended up being just about right for me. The overarching story is thought provoking and ties everything together nicely. Well worth the buy.
спасибо за русскую озвучку если бы другие части были озвучены на русский тоже бы купил
Amazing game, 10/10 would recommand!
самая лучшая головоломка!!!
A good 20 hours of puzzles that really had me wracking my brain. I wish I could forget them and do it all over again.
