Every store in this table quotes us in euros, so the EUR figure is the price the seller actually set, not our arithmetic — which is why EUR is also the currency we rank in. We only list an offer here when the store gives us its price in euros, so nothing in this table is a number we invented.
Pick USD, PLN, GBP, CAD or AUD in the header and we convert from EUR at the European Central Bank reference rate — converted amounts are prefixed with ~. Your bank or the store may apply a different rate at checkout. We never hide offers based on where you are: everyone sees this whole table.
We may earn a commission when you buy games through links on this page — at no extra cost to you. It never affects our rankings or verdicts.

About CID the Dummy
CID the Dummy is a physics-driven action platformer from the early 2010s where you play as a floppy crash-test dummy navigating obstacle courses and environmental hazards. The core appeal is the ragdoll-based movement system: instead of precision platforming, you're managing momentum and physics interactions to reach each level's exit. It's a gimmick that can be fun in short bursts if you enjoy slapstick experimentation and don't mind loose controls. The game doesn't reinvent the wheel and feels more like a novelty than a fully realized platformer. Level design is straightforward, the camera can be finicky, and there's not much that separates CID from dozens of other indie physics toys from that era. If you're hunting for obscure early 2010s action-platformers or specifically want a dummy-based protagonist, it's worth a look on a budget. Otherwise, newer physics platformers do similar ideas with more polish.
