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 The Visitor Effect: Not an experiment
The Visitor Effect arrives as a niche indie title that blends puzzle-solving with light strategic thinking. The core hook is solid: you're trapped in a faulty simulation and must uncover the conspiracy while avoiding security systems. Puzzle-strategy hybrids live or die on their execution, and from what's present here, the game leans into environmental logic and clever constraints rather than pure brute-force problem-solving. The singleplayer focus means no handholding multiplayer checkpoints, so puzzle difficulty compounds naturally. What matters for strategy fans: decision trees matter in escapes like this, and the game's innovation tag suggests it's not just corridor progression. The real question is whether the tutorial respects your intelligence and whether late-game puzzles reward forward planning or devolve into trial-and-error. For a November 2025 release on a tiny budget, this is worth a look if you're burned out on AAA bloat and want something with actual decision weight. Just go in expecting indie scope, not polish depth.
