Yeah, I'll add my name to the list of people who cried a little. It may not be a long game, but it's worth your time.
o jogo é bem curtinho e os puzzles são mt fáceis, mas eu acho o visual muuito lindo e a história emocionante (além de ser legal conhecer um pouquinho mais sobre uma cultura diferente!)
Lovely

This and every other Pro feature is free until October 20, 2026. A free account is all it takes.
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 2,402 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.

Le jeu en lui même est choupi si vous aimez les petits narratifs, les interactions sont rare mais suffisante. Ne vaut pas du tout son plein tarif à mon sens, par contre. Mais il est régulièrement autour des 4-5€ en promo sur Steam, ce qui est correct pour l’expérience proposée. (Il peut aussi se trouver pour 1€ sur instant) Très court, je l’ai laisser tourné en arrière plan sans faire gaffe d’où les 5h de jeu mais en réalité en 1h-1h30 c’est plié.
Joguinho gostosinho demais da conta, daqueles que fazem você refletir a vida, Enquanto jogava pensei muito na minha mãe e no meu pai e em suas lutas para conseguir me proporcionar uma boa vida Muita gratidão a Deus pelos pais que eu tenho
Venba is a rare, deeply moving gem. What makes it so special is how authentically grounded it is in Tamil roots -seeing South Indian heritage, food, and music celebrated like this felt completely unique and refreshing. Combined with a vibrant art style, a soundtrack that rocks, and a touching immigrant story, Venba is brief, but its warmth lingers long after the credits roll. Highly recommended!
validated my existence and made me cry, i dont deserve my mom
힌두 문화권뿐만 아니라 보편적으로 공감할 수 있을 만한 가족 이야기. 누구나 바깥의 것을 쫓을수록 자신 안에 있는 것의 가치를 알게 되는 법이다.
