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 2,515 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.

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!

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.
很久没有时间沉浸玩一款解谜游戏,这次趁小长假终于把塔罗斯法则通关了。关卡构建的创意很棒,还有一些哲学上存在主义的思考,除了bug略多几乎没有缺点。
On peut lui trouver des défauts de narration et lui reprocher des irrégularités dans la conception des énigmes mais il n'en reste pas moins que ce jeu est une master class. Le jeu est généreux aussi bien par ses écrits, par son ambiance que par ses nombreux easter eggs. Chapeau bas Cro team
These puzzles are fun, although there were a few where i did need to rethink what i was doing or get some help, i think i may of found one or two that i completed using an alternitive unintended way lol.
晕3D的话会有点儿头疼,我玩Portal2不会晕玩这个会头晕 解密也是渐入佳境啊,好玩儿
Pretty cool puzzle game with an original story to accompany you along your journey . Every puzzle in the game (other than the stars) felt doable. I also enjoyed the DLC, i think they improved a lot on the base game and i realy liked the mini games / community of it too. To be honest there are not much to delve into about the possitives other than that it was a fun and challenging game. I will go into more detail about the "negative"(closer to small complains) about the game tho. My main issue with the game was motion sickness, even tho it went away after 20 hours or so, it forced me to take basicly a break after every puzzle. So if you have motion sickness issues its gonna be hard for you. I dont see the point of stars other than having something for achievment hunters. I did collect them for the 100% but with the help of a guide. Some of those stars require huge leaps of logic to come up with the solution and certainly a lot of hours of trial and error which i wasnt going to spent. The texts about the lore of the game got tiresome realy fast. They need to pace them out better and make the texts more relevant, i get that those texts were discussing the ideas of the game but i dont want to read 3 paragraphs to get to the conclusion that afterlife might not be the option. They did improve that with the dlc which made the text an interesting read mainly because you were interacting with the comminity.
