The value story
The lowest price on record is $2.69, set in March 2022. Its cuts run 10 percent off as a rule. There have been 43 in the 5 years tracked, about 6 weeks apart. Today's $2.69 at 10 percent off matches the lowest price in the record.
On value it sits in the top 1 percent of its genre. It is cheaper than 82 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 95 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Grimm's Hollow (free, scores 93) beats it on value, while it beats Unavowed ($14.99, scores 79).
The math says it holds its tier up to $4.87, and you are being asked for $2.69.

What players say
I couldn't stop playing this game until I completed it and got every achievement. For this low price, you get fun puzzles to solve, great storytelling with plot twists, absolute likeable and charming characters (can't even chose my favorite now that I have received every character route!), multiple endings and beautiful pixel art. Worth it - I recommend <3 Now all I need is for this game to become more popular, so...
I adored this game so much I didn't even care they were making me do math to impress my boyfriends
Cool game and good pixel art style, really liked the cgs. The lore is interesting and makes you want to learn more - Really looking for the sequel-. It is short game so perfect for a evening. The game is really cheap so don't expect a long game. Arround 3-4 hours to read everything first time and a few more hours if you want to get all achievements+endings. THIS GAME IS NOT AN OTOME like I saw on some social...
