About the game
With a set built entirely out of paper and cardboard, and sumptuously filmed, Lume is a game with a style unlike any other.
Minimum specs
Runs on Windows, macOS.
The value story
32 discounts in the 14 years on record, a median of 70 percent off across all of them, roughly 18 weeks apart. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended 11 days ago.
It is less well reviewed than 99 percent of its genre. Marie's Room (free, scores 82) outscores it, and so does What Never Was (free, scores 84). Both sit among its closest neighbours.
