About the game

Euclidean; a game of geometric horror; a slow descent into the dark, into madness, futility, and despair, where Things greater than you watch and wait and dream. Struggle for every second of life you have left… Even knowing you’re better off dead.

The value story

It has been discounted 57 times in the 11 years tracked here. The median cut across all of them is 70 percent, about 6 weeks apart. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended 11 days ago.

What players say

It's a falling simulator in slow motion. More like falling through an underwater tunnel. There are creatures roaming around that can kill you, despite the ultimate end being death anyway. In terms of visuals, the game is a bit of a treat. Strange structures, strange foes, a plethora of brilliant colours and patterns assault your senses as you alternate between admiring the scenery and trying to plot your course as...

The Store page isn't clear at all: I expected a mind-bending game, but all I got was a Lovecraftian AaaaaAAaaaAAAaaAAAAaAAA!!!! Although disappointed, I wouldn't mind and play it as such, if only the movements weren't so sloppy, and the mouse didn't have an obnoxiously high acceleration/deceleration. It's a hard pass for me.
