Note written 2026-08-25; the live figures above take precedence over any numbers in it.

A 2015 hand-drawn point-and-click adventure from Daedalic Entertainment about a girl uncovering dark secrets in a twisted fairy-tale world.

Anna's Quest sits in a quiet zone: strong critical reception (88% positive), modest but steady residual income ($998/mo mid-range), and a devoted if small player base that still engage months after purchase. The title reflects Daedalic's signature craft (narrative-led adventure design) at a moment when the studio itself is fading. This is a catalog acquisition play for a publisher seeking seasoned IP with low maintenance overhead and proven international appeal, or a revival candidate if someone wants to test whether a modest remaster or sequel could reignite interest in the character. Most realistic play: acquisition.

• Risk: Point-and-click adventure is a crowded indie category; Anna's Quest competes for shelf space and marketing attention without a franchise anchor.
• Risk: Nine-year-old codebase may require engine work or platform-specific patching as OS standards drift, especially on macOS and Linux.
• Risk: Developer (Daedalic) is in organizational decline; no post to studio forums or social channels in 43 months suggests minimal ongoing support or lore-building for future sequels.
