A short, poetic adventure from Ice-Pick Lodge about memory and homecoming, built around meditative exploration and environmental storytelling.

Know by Heart generated $126k lifetime on modest price ($19.99) with strong sentiment (89.7% positive, 96.6% recent) and steady residual income ($576/mo mid-case), but has seen zero promotions and no developer communication for 44 months. The quiet player retention (33%) and lack of discount history suggest either a deliberate premium positioning or incomplete market penetration. For a publisher seeking catalog depth in the literary-adventure segment or a studio evaluating IP partnerships with Ice-Pick Lodge, this represents a stable if dormant title with upside from targeted revivals or bundling. Most realistic play: watch.

  • Risk: Peak concurrent players now at zero; last 30 days peaked at 2; ultra-niche genre with limited mainstream appeal may constrain resale or revival ROI.
  • Risk: No discount promotions in 12 months and last deep sale over a year ago suggest either IP/contract constraints or publisher strategy shift; unclear licensing or rights status relative to Ice-Pick Lodge portfolio.
