Latest Steam announcements

  • Patch 1.1.0 – Steam Workshop Update - 22 February 2025

    Hello everyone! We've been really impressed to see user-made puzzles in our community, and we wanted to add Steam Workshop support to make it easier to share your creations to more players. This update adds a new "User Levels" menu, where you can play uploaded levels and campaigns from the Workshop, directly from the game! You can also upload your own creations easily, all you need to do is to right click a level or campaign from the in-game file browser and select "Upload to Workshop". We're really excited to see what you will make! Changelist Steam Workshop support, allowing you to upload and play user-made puzzles and campaigns Added a new User Levels interface for browsing the Workshop from within the game Added "Upload to Workshop" option to the main menu file browser Added an achievement for completing user-made levels Added support for changing the background for custom campaigns…

  • Patch 1.0.15 - 9 February 2025

    Just a quick hotfix to a reported issue! Changelist Fixed a missing auto-save file preventing generating a new infinite puzzle Fixed synchronizing partially solved puzzles in Steam Cloud

  • Patch 1.0.14 - 2 February 2025

    The patch adds a Spanish localization, contributed by Rubén Martí! We also heard that the new multiple solution checking logic broke some workflows, so we added an option to use the previous one. Changelist Added Spanish localization Added an option to use the old multiple solution display in the editor, or disable it altogether

  • Patch 1.0.13 - 31 January 2025

    We're really happy to see that some people have already used the editor, I recommend checking out some great user puzzles in our Discord! Editor improvements The editor used to display unsure cells as "multiple solutions", but this behavior was pretty confusing. Now only cells that are proven to have multiple solutions are highlighted. If the editor is unable to prove that there is only single solution, but cannot find multiple solutions, it will display a "?" icon. Changelist Improved multiple solution display in editor (see above) Removed difficulty selection from editor as it is not useful with the new multiple solution display The solver has been improved resulting in more varied infinite puzzles The User Code menu can now play pzprjs style links (eg. puzz.link, pzv.jp) Fixed an issue where infinite mode completions were counted incorrectly Fixed in-game input display on non-QWERTY…

  • Patch 1.0.12 - 21 January 2025

    Just a small hotfix this time to a reported issue! Changelist Fixed the game freezing at startup if Steam Runtime initialization fails.

  • Patch 1.0.11 - 19 January 2025

    Small patch with a few fixes aimed at user levels and some minor issues. Thank you again to everyone who's been playing, it's been great to see people enjoy the game! Changelist Added a Discord button to the main menu. The check button tutorial now appears only if needed, instead of at the start of the puzzle. Fixed long campaign names overlapping with the complete checkmark. Renamed old named "Faucet" into "Breezy" and "One Two Three" into "Easy as 1-2-3". Editor play mode graphics have been adjusted.

  • Patch 1.0.10 - 15 January 2025

    We are super happy with our launch and are so glad to see so many players and reviews already, thank you all so much! Based on feedback and observations from players, we identified some issues that we thought were important enough to fix right after launch. These updates are now available in patch 1.0.10! Changelist Adjusted the progression of the end of the campaign "Advance" (see below) Fixed multiple solutions in the following levels: "Not Gamma", "Flip Flops?", "Switchboard?", and "Varied Sprawl". Huge thanks to DireKrow for finding these! Fixed an issue in the level "No Lagoons", where the intended starting point had multiple solutions, leading to an unpleasant solving experience. Fixed an issue where the check button tutorial would activate in the first two levels. Tweaked Japan Winter water color to be darker for better visibility, especially for puzzles with holes. Campaign chan…

  • Demo – Hard Winter - 19 October 2024

    We have seen that the demo might have been a bit easy for some players, but we also see many people who can barely finish the demo. This led us to wonder how we could give players with potentially previous Nurikabe experience a taste of harder and bigger levels, without being too discouraging for newcomers. Our current solution is a bit of an odd one, but you can access four extra hard levels by clicking the "User Levels" button 5 times in a row! Keep in mind that these levels are from varying points of the game, and the difficulty ramps up quite fast compared to the full game, where you can improve at your own pace.

About this game

Nurikabe World is a relaxing logic puzzle game where you solve puzzles by creating islands and connecting rivers to create beautiful sceneries. Nurikabe World reimagines the classic Japanese pen-and-paper puzzle Nurikabe as a 3D game, where islands spring to life with trees and structures. Either play handcrafted puzzles, immerse yourself in the flow of infinitely generated maps or create and share your own puzzles with the integrated level editor. In Nurikabe World, you create islands by placing water tiles. Each number must be separated into its own island with the indicated number of tiles. Completed islands will grow trees and other structures. Getting started is easy, you only need to know a few rules to start playing! All islands must be separated by water The water must form one connected river 2x2 water squares, called "pools" , are not allowed Nurikabe World has puzzles of all sizes and difficulty levels. The crafted puzzles will take you through breezy 5x5 levels to 15x15 endurance-testing experiences and more. There are also a bunch of difficult smaller puzzles for bite-sized challenges.

Price History Overview

USD uses SteamPulse's own locally recorded daily store snapshots, so this overview reflects the exact regional price history that SteamPulse has captured for this currency.

Coverage And Tracking Window

  • Snapshots: 1
  • Coverage: Oct 8, 2026 to Oct 8, 2026
  • Lowest observed: $9.99
  • Highest observed: $9.99

Nurikabe World's USD price history spans from Oct 8, 2026 to Oct 8, 2026, with 1 recorded snapshot across 1 calendar day. Each row records the available final price, listed base price, and discount metadata for that observation. Within this coverage the lowest recorded price is $9.99, the highest is $9.99, and the first visible tracked price is $9.99. These comparisons apply only to the snapshots SteamPulse holds; missing observations can contain changes that are not represented here.

For USD, SteamPulse uses locally captured regional storefront snapshots and does not reconstruct older prices with exchange-rate conversion. The chart and table show the values recorded for this exact currency from the stated coverage start. Additional snapshots extend that record, but they do not fill unobserved days or prove what the storefront displayed between observations.

Discount Windows And Sale Timing

  • Discount windows: 0
  • Discounted days: 0 days
  • Deepest markdown: No discount tracked
  • Latest sale window: No sale window tracked

Nurikabe World's tracked USD rows do not contain a discount window. This means no available snapshot in the stated coverage has usable discount metadata; it does not prove that the game was never discounted. Missing snapshots or archived rows without complete metadata can hide a sale, so SteamPulse does not infer pricing strategy from this absence.

If a later snapshot includes discount metadata, it will appear here with its recorded depth, price, date, and sale name when available. Until then, this section should be read only as a description of the available rows, not as evidence about the publisher's promotion policy.

Observed Price Changes And Stable Runs

  • Observed price drops: 0
  • Observed price rises: 0
  • Longest stable run: 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking
  • Current run: 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking

Outside rows carrying discount metadata, the tracked price has not recorded a separate price rise or drop yet. That means the observed undiscounted level has stayed stable across the snapshots SteamPulse currently holds. This is a statement about the recorded coverage only; it does not prove that an older or missing price change never happened.

The longest unchanged price stretch in the current record lasts 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking at $9.99, from Oct 8, 2026 through Oct 8, 2026. Among rows without discount metadata, the longest unchanged run lasts 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking at $9.99. The latest run records $9.99 for 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking as the same recorded undiscounted price. Run lengths describe consecutive stored observations only and do not establish that a price is permanent.

Latest Snapshot And Sales Context

  • Current price: $9.99
  • Current list price: $9.99
  • Distinct observed prices: 1
  • Source mode: SteamPulse local tracking

The latest tracked snapshot records Nurikabe World at $9.99 in USD, with no active discount metadata. Across the available history SteamPulse has recorded 1 distinct final price in this currency. This supports comparisons with the lowest, highest, and most common values present in the retained record, subject to the stated coverage limits.

The live sales view and Steam sales record provide calendar context for these dates. A date overlap can be compared with a named Steam event, but it does not prove why a publisher changed a price. As new daily rows arrive, this overview recalculates its observed prices, discount windows, and run lengths automatically.
