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.

This game made me feel like I was mentally disabled. 8/10
a beautiful mind enigma , akin to a supernatural phenomenon like NHS
This is a great puzzle game, with a background soundtrack that reduced my heart rate by at least 20 beats. Having such a soothing gaming experience in The Talos Principle was a first for me. The different themes of the worlds were very fun to explore, but some of the stars were nearly impossible to find unless you have a ton of time! :D
You are not just solving puzzles… you are kinda solving your own existence. The game reminds you that real intelligence is not blind obedience, but having the courage to question and search for the truth.
It's just amazing.
Solid Puzzle Experience with a Camera Caveat The game is generally good-looking, and even considering its age, it still holds up pretty well. BEFORE YOU PLAY: Change the camera with "H" ! My first two sessions were stuck in first-person, and I ended up with massive headaches. Don't make my mistake, switch the view immediately. The Puzzles: There are plenty of solid puzzles throughout. They start off a bit too easy, with only a handful toward the end that really made me break a sweat. Overall, a decent balance, though I wish the challenge had ramped up sooner. Story & Dialogue: I never really managed to get into the story. So when the game tried to dump lore on me, I wanted to skip it, sadly, you can't skip through dialogue as fast as you like. Final Thoughts: Despite the story not clicking with me, I enjoyed my time with the game. I logged about 15 hours of fun and naturally picked up around 50% of the achievements. I don't plan on going back for the missing ones, that was enought of that game for me. Score: 7/10 — A solid puzzle game that holds up visually, offers a fair challenge Just remember to change that camera first!
This game is so good! Make sure that you read the QR codes and the computer terminal text for the best experience!
