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.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 0.29/day in the week to Sep 1 → 0.43/day in the week after.
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.
About

'The Tragedy at Deer Creek' is a cinematic adventure set in a remote, long abandoned logging camp, exploring the ambition, hardship and struggles of its people, and the tragedy that ultimately befell them. A story about the bonds of family and the sacrifices we make to protect those we love.

Explore the abandoned camp and uncover fragments of the lives once lived there.
Each discovery draws you deeper into the story of its people
...and the events that changed everything.

Find items from the past, holding clues as to what happened at Deer Creek.
Some were never meant to be found, some hidden in plain sight.


Photographer Charlotte Gray ventures to the long-abandoned logging camp at Deer Creek to complete her project ”Forgotten Frontiers” - a visual record of places time has slowly erased, and the quiet stories left in its wake.
What she finds is not simply an abandoned camp, but one that feels suspended in time, as though held in place by something unseen, as if its occupants stepped away only moments ago rather than decades. And in the heavy stillness of the vast, frozen landscape, Charlotte begins to sense something dormant - Deer Creek does not merely hold the stories of its past.
It yearns to set them free.

An intriguing mystery story that keeps you playing despite lackluster puzzles and cutscenes that drag too long.
A short, interesting point-and-click set in an eerie, abandoned logging camp. Oddly nostalgic graphics and intruging story, definetly worth a play!
A game I enjoyed, in spite of being a little surprised by what it actually was. This game presents itself as your usual mystery adventure game, but the operative word in its description is "cinematic." It is far more railroad-y than others of its ilk, which took away from my enjoyment somewhat. There are multiple puzzles that prevent you from experimenting with them until you find the solution which is guaranteed to work, and as others have noted the finale is taken out of the player's hands entirely. Most of the other puzzles are good, even if some rely on a good deal of adventure game logic. Even with this in mind, however, the story the game does tell is an interesting one, even if a simple one. I genuinely did not see the big reveal coming, even if I had already guessed some of the details correctly. It also goes without saying that the game has outstanding visuals, especially in the occasional animations that are so suspenseful because of their unique style. The voice acting of the main character is really solid, yet the other voice actors are passable at best. Overall, I would consider the game well worth the rather short amount of time you'll likely put in to it, and worth its price on sale, if nothing else.

[url=https://davidyat.es/2026/06/16/review-the-tragedy-at-deer-creek/]My full review is here.[/url] Briefly: I wanted to like this game a lot more than I did. It is audiovisually rich and has some fun puzzles, but does not provide an experience that engages you with the narrative, or present a narrative that earns engagement. At 3–4 hours of playtime, it’s not a major time commitment, but unless you really like the graphics in the screenshots above and/or really enjoy adventure-game puzzles for their own sake, I can’t recommend it. Nonetheless, I’m interested to see what Sparrowland does next. They clearly have a talent and flair for the cinematic, which I’d like to see matched with a stronger literary foundation. I think they have all of the necessary ingredients to produce a highly enjoyable adventure game if they take the right lessons from this one.
Better than most games.
An enjoyable mystery, and a protagonist who responds to the world and its mysteries with far more emotion and compassion than one may often expect from these sorts of games. I definitely recommend, with a single warning: keep tissues on hand.
脸盲,不记得名字,看到最后也不知道到底发生啥了。
No suelo jugar point en click porque siempre quedo pegado xd, pero este es cortito, el juego es de misterio... ambientado en un pueblo aislado, con una historia sobre una tragedia que ocurrió por el 1900. No esperes radios, ni luces modernas, ni ondas... Tiene investigación, personajes sospechosos, buena atmosfera y un misterio central que te mantiene avanzando, buen ritmo de progreso...
It was a nice little mystery (dark though obviously). Game play was good, didn't mind the general back and forth of travel. Puzzles were classic and fun. Wish it were longer but that's a good thing.
Great emotional story, nice gameplay and such a gorgeous style. Amazing
