Dreadmoor came out yesterday, 9 November, in Steam Early Access. It's a first-person fishing game with a horror twist, made by Dream Dock, and for now it's PC only. The first day went well: Steam users rate it Very Positive, 355 of 428 reviews, which works out at about 83%.
What we know after day one
Early Access means you're buying a game that isn't finished. Dream Dock hasn't said how long it will stay in that state, and nobody has announced whether the price will change when the full release arrives.
GG.deals reported that Dreadmoor launched with a discount on Steam. What we haven't seen is the percentage, the regular price or an end date. The Steam data we pulled this morning shows €18.44 and carries no discount figure, so we can't tell you how long that launch price will last.
Kinguin or the Steam store this morning
Steam charges €18.44 (no fees). The cheapest Steam Key we found is at Kinguin: €14.71 with coupon NOVGOC10 (€16.23 with fees). That's €2.21 less than Steam once you pay the fees, around 12%.
Kinguin also sells a Steam Account for €9.45 with NOVGOC10 (€10.55 with fees). Bear in mind what that is: you get the login to someone else's Steam account, and the game never ends up on yours. We'd take the key.
Too early for a usual price
The game has been on sale for a day, so there isn't enough history to work out a median. We can't tell you yet whether €14.71 is a good price for this key or simply what it costs at launch.
So, now or later?
If a horror game about fishing sounds like your thing and you don't mind playing something that's still being built, the reviews are a decent sign and the key gets you in for less than Steam. Activate it in Steam under Games > Activate a Product on Steam and it sits in your library like anything else.
If you'd rather play a more complete version, waiting costs you nothing, as long as you accept we don't know whether the price will go up or down later. A price alert will email you if the key drops to the price you choose. All the shops are on the page to buy the Dreadmoor key.
