Compare Prices(6 stores)
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 Howl
I've got a soft spot for tactics games that respect player intelligence, and Howl does this by making your heroine's deafness mechanically central rather than narrative window-dressing. You're navigating a medieval landscape ravaged by creatures that hunt via sound, which means your disability is literally your survival tool. The turn-based combat is lean but deliberate, rewarding positioning and resource management over flashy abilities. It's short, focused, and doesn't overstay its welcome. The map design and encounter variety carry most of the weight here, since the ruleset is straightforward enough that depth comes from how you sequence actions and predict enemy behavior. At around 5-10 hours, it's the kind of indie tactics title that respects your time. The 96% user score reflects a small but genuinely engaged audience. If you're burnt out on 200-hour strategy epics, this is a palate-cleanser with real mechanical meat.
