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 23 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 14 places towards #1, and the 2,420 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.

I enjoy this game because of it's puzzles. The storyline is also VERY similar to the Garden of Eden in Genesis, which is kinda cool to see unfold. I bought the Serious DLC on sale and I find it to be funny. I love puzzles and storyline, and I feel like this is a cool mix of the two.
An excellent puzzle game that is not too easy so as to be trivial, nor too hard to the point where I got stuck for long. The game also does not bloat the number of puzzles - this means that new tools and concepts are regularly added, which allows progress to feel meaningful. The game takes a deep philosophical theme, which is communicated via a text terminal which provides breaks between the puzzles that effectively prevents mental exhaustion. Though, this philosophical aesthetic is fairly optional if one is uninterested. All in all, the Talos Principle is a unique puzzle game that is satisfying to complete.

Yo no soy una persona de jugar juegos de Puzles, estaba más interesado en el aspecto de la historia de The Talos Principle, y debo decir que, aún con sus momentos cuestionables, me divertí con los puzles, era satisfactorio realizarlos. El juego gráficamente se ve bien y optimizado, y aparte de los "glitches" adrede, solo tuve un crasheo y realmente no perdí progreso, con músicas temáticas de los mundos las cuales me gustaron. Los puzles en sí son bastante sencillos al inicio y luego van escalando en dificultad, es complicado quedarse atrapado en un softlock y más todavía por accidente, e incluso si llega a pasar, puedes reiniciar a un punto de control. También tiene un botón para que el tiempo vaya más rápido, bastante útil para varias situaciones donde debes esperar. No te piden agilidad (El parkour es algo torpe), por lo que puedes jugar a tu ritmo. Progresando por The Talos Principle, descubres más sobre el mundo, dándote ideas de lo ocurrido, mientras aprendes la perspectiva como androide lo que realmente significa la humanidad, cuestionando las ideas que tenemos de conceptos como la religión y lo que significa ser un... ser humano. Tiene varios finales, un DLC por si quieres jugar más puzles a un precio razonable que suele irse en descuento. Puedes conseguir también la versión remasterizada que incluye mejoras de calidad vida y el propio DLC incluido, con un poco más de contenido, pero como está hecho en Unreal Engine 5, dependerá de la potencia de tu PC.

E' un puzzle game intrigante con una bella storia e una grafica fluida, semplice ma efficace. Croteam lavora bene e quasi tutti i Serious Sam sono dei capolavori. Ero curioso di vedere come se la sarebbero cavati con questo tipo di giochi e direi proprio che hanno fatto centro. Alla lunga potrebbe risultare un po' noioso perché i problemi si risolvono sempre con pochi elementi: raggi di luce, rifrazioni, pedane a pressione e ventole ma è troppa la curiosità di vedere come va a finire. Il fatto di potersi muovere abbastanza liberamente, potendo cambiare l'ordine dei puzzle (entro certi limiti) permette di sospendere un puzzle troppo difficile e riprovarci più avanti, una volta affinato l'occhio e le tecniche. Qualche livello è proprio difficile e non mi vergogno a dire che per un paio mi sono fatto aiutare dai tutorial su YouTube. Sto scrivendo questa recensione consapevole di essere praticamente alla fine del gioco e... gli ultimi puzzle sono proprio impegnativi. Per me è da prendere... soprattutto adesso che il prezzo è sceso molto!
Even though it's an older title, I really enjoyed this game. Complex but satisfying puzzles that don't get truly infuriating until late in the game (with few bumps along thea way, to keep you humble). IMPORTANT: I learned this the hard way... The final level is buggy. Save yourself a LOT of suffering and searching & simply cap the game's FPS to 60 for that last level. It makes little sense, but otherwise, inexplicably, key things won't happen, and you'll be stuck. Frustrating that this has remained unpatched. Overall a lot of fun, though. Will def try the sequel.
7/10
Восхитительная игра! Очень атмосферная! Сильный и глубокий сюжет! Множество головоломок, секретов и загадок! Тема философии и принятие нового мира впечатляет! Игра буквально не отпускает! Хочется разгадывать головоломки и исследовать миры еще и еще!)) Отдельная благодарность разработчикам за поддержку платформы Mac OS. Оптимизация очень радует! Однако есть нюанс) Чтобы поиграть в данную игру на современных Mac, попробуйте установить предыдущую версию игры, она должна быть с совместимостью OS X на базе предыдущих поколений Mac и Mac OS. Чтобы устранить баг с белым экраном, необходимо запустить игру в оконном режиме , об этом есть инструкции в руководствах) Далее растягиваем экран, настраиваем игру под себя и наслаждаемся) Благодарю разработчиков за данную игру и в целом за качественный продукт!

게임은 재밌는데 번역 퀄리티가 너무 쓰레기라서 이 작품 말고 리마스터 작품인 The Talos Principle : Reawakened를 사서 플레이 하시는 것을 추천 드립니다. 또한 리마스터 작품은 원작의 게헨나로 가는 길 DLC와 리마스터 작품에만 있는 태초에 퍼즐도 추가되어 있습니다.
