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.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 7.57/day in the week to Aug 7 → 9.86/day in the week after.
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.

Fantastic game. Please make DLCs.
its so relaxing and you can learn a thing or two from the books you are selling
I'm really enjoying this game, just wanted to write this to air my complaints about the recommendation mechanic being too vague and loose. The difficulty system is not explained well enough in my opinion, and can sometimes feel incorrect or misleading. I've often selected books that literally state or perfectly embody a specific buzz word the customer is looking for and they spit that exact buzz word back in face when telling me I chose wrong. In fact, the straw to break my back was a "one star" difficulty recommendation for a light, children's book with no romance. I, interpreting light as meaning few pages, looked through my kids genre and chose "The Ugly Duckling." They said it was too heavy. Absolutely ridiculous. If the ugly duckling isn't a light book then call me a bodybuilder for managing to conquer freakin Charlotte's Web. The mechanic could really use some refinement in my opinion.

Starts slow but the gameplay loop becomes more and more addictive as you unlock stories and characters. I thought it was too repetitive at first, but the world opened up further in.
So much more in depth than I had originally thought it would be before buying it. Super fun, and I feel like I can play for hours on end. It has made me want to start reading books again.
Cozy und eine Empfehlung für jeden Büchernerd!
