Deal | Only $1.49: Highly rated single-player adventure game with BAFTA nomination is now 90% off on Steam
While most puzzle games try to challenge your brain, this one gently tugs at your heart. The Last Campfire is a heartfelt puzzle adventure from Hello Games, is currently on sale for just $1.49 on Steam. This 90% discount will run until June 9. It’s the lowest price the game has ever hit, according to SteamD - although it has plummeted to this price previously too.
Originally released in October 2021, The Last Campfire tells the story of a lost ember wandering through a strange and quiet world, trying to find purpose and a way home. It’s a short but thoughtful game - part puzzle, part exploration - with a style that leans more toward gentle storytelling than complex mechanics.
Built by the same team behind No Man’s Sky, the game is surprisingly personal. It features hand-crafted visuals, subtle narration, and a soundtrack that matches its emotional core. The whole experience lasts around 4-6 hours and is meant to be played at a slow, steady pace.
Critics praised it on launch for its art direction and message, with Apple naming it one of the "Best of 2020" on Apple Arcade. It also picked up nominations at the BAFTA Games Awards, including "Game Beyond Entertainment." Steam reviewers have called it "short and sweet," "cozy but emotional," and "one of those games that sticks with you."
It doesn’t demand much from your system - just 4 GB of RAM and a 1.8 GHz i5 - and only takes up 3 GB of space. A free demo is available too, if you want to test it out before buying. For players who enjoy titles like Journey, Spiritfarer, or Gris, this one’s a no-brainer. At $1.49, The Last Campfire is hard to pass up.
