Note written 2026-09-20; the live figures above take precedence over any numbers in it.

Price of Power is a narrative-driven adventure game from an indie studio, released in early 2024, with a focus on character-driven storytelling.

This title occupies an unusual niche: modest but stable residual revenue (low-to-mid $300s/mo), a tight 77% positive score, and demonstrated player retention, despite minimal marketing footprint and zero discounting since launch. The community appreciates the narrative craftsmanship and character work. This is not a high-impact acquisition, but a quiet earner that could benefit from localization work (14% gap, esp. Simplified Chinese) and modest revival marketing; best suited for a small-to-mid publisher seeking catalog depth or a studio looking to acquire and nurture a proven creative core. Most realistic play: publishing.

  • Risk: Single-title studio with no post-launch support or development signaling; buyer assumes full ongoing risk.
  • Risk: No discount history and elasticity of -1 suggest price-sensitive audience; margin-enhancing moves may cannibalize sales.
  • Risk: No cloud, cards, or workshop features; competitive feature gaps relative to contemporary adventure titles.
