Cryptographer

Short description

Cryptographer is a challenging puzzle-platformer that rewards player skill. Make use of bombs, switches, gates, and cannons to clear a path to the escape portal. Be careful with your navigation, however, because the crypt walls collapse as you move.

Review count and SteamSpy's owner range agree well enough to narrow the estimate down to this band. Multiplied by the $7.99 launch price — there is not enough price history for this game to weight the copies by what they actually sold for. Before Steam's cut, VAT and refunds. How these numbers are calculated.
