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 Salthe
Salthe is a short, atmospheric visual novel that trades mainstream appeal for dark, theatrical storytelling. You're watching an actress perform her own tragedy, guided by a mysterious jester who controls what memories surface and how they're reframed. The writing leans heavy on mood and ambiguity rather than branching choice trees, this is more like reading a script than making decisions. It's deliberately bleak and relies on your tolerance for artistic obscurity. If you want clear narrative payoffs and player agency, look elsewhere. But if you're drawn to small, experimental games that prioritize atmosphere over mass audience comfort, and you don't mind sitting with uncomfortable questions, Salthe delivers something genuinely singular. The medieval staging and death-defying framing make it stick with you long after the credits.
