Unknown Host
Short description
It's a short indie horror game where we step into the shoes of Alex, a student who, in search of more comfort, rents an apartment in the city that, at first glance, seems pretty decent — but upon arrival, he realizes something is not right.

Review count and SteamSpy's owner range disagree, so the band is widened to cover both rather than picking a favourite. Multiplied by $2.81, the average price these copies actually sold for — weighted from the price history rather than taken from the $2.99 launch price. That is 6% below list price on average. Before Steam's cut, VAT and refunds. How these numbers are calculated.

History
2 data points since Jul 30, 2026. Gaps mean nothing changed — the value carries forward.
The blurred area is the rest of the history. 64 further data points reach back to May 9, 2025 — your plan shows the last 90 days of it. How far each series in particular reaches is written on its own chart; not every one of them goes back that far. The shape in the blurred area is decoration, not data: the figures are not in this page at all. Plus unlocks the complete series.
Lowest recorded price: $1.49 on Feb 23, 2026.
