Silver Pines on Steam

Silver Pines is on Steam as app 2333000, priced at $24.99 / £21.99 / €24.99, with a Deluxe bundle at $31.99. The store page carries 23 achievements, Steam Cloud, Family Sharing and a Steam Deck Verified badge.

The one thing that is no longer true is the demo. A free demo was available before launch, and the publisher said it would stay up until October 8 — the day the full game came out. It has since been delisted.

Price and editions

A 10 percent launch discount ran from release until October 22. That window has closed, so the store now shows the base price; the first post-launch discount dropped it to $22.49 in some regions.

The Deluxe bundle is exactly the base game plus the artbook and soundtrack. There are no in-game items, no cosmetics and no early unlocks, so buying it is a decision about the extras rather than about the game.

Is there still a demo?

No. The free demo was published under its own app ID and was removed on October 8, 2026, when the full game launched. Older guides that link to it are pointing at a store page that no longer offers a download.

This matters for more than convenience. The demo had a different code set, and players who mixed demo passwords into a full-game list ended up with locks that would not open. If you are following a video from before October 8, check whether it was recorded on the demo.

How does it run on Steam Deck?

The game carries a Steam Deck Verified badge, which means the default controller layout, text size and performance were all checked by Valve rather than self-reported.

That said, the PC version had frame-rate complaints from reviewers in busy areas. On Deck the same dips are more noticeable, and the flashlight battery economy makes a stable frame rate matter more than usual. Cap the frame rate if you notice stutter.

Which languages are supported?

Ten languages are listed: English, French, German, Spanish (Spain), Spanish (Latin America), Japanese, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Portuguese (Brazil) and Russian.

Only English has full audio. Every other language is interface and subtitles only, so if you need a dub, this is not the game for it.

System requirements

The requirements are modest for a 2026 release.

The 5 GB figure is small enough that storage is not a consideration, and the recommended GPU is old enough that most laptops from the last five years will run it. The Epic Games Store version lists the same requirements.

What do Steam players say?

At the time of this check the game had a 97 percent positive rating across 1,824 reviews, which Steam labels Overwhelmingly Positive. That is a much warmer reception than the critic average of 85, and the difference is instructive: players who came for atmosphere got what they came for.

The positive tags cluster around atmosphere, presentation and the way the game blends genres. The negative tags cluster around combat, boss fights, performance and controls. Both lists are consistent with the published reviews.

Concurrent players peaked at 4,874 on October 18, about ten days after launch, which is a healthy curve for a five-person studio's first release.

Is it cheaper in another region?

Regional pricing varies more than the headline numbers suggest. China lists the game at ¥90, well below the $24.99 US price once converted.

Those prices are set by the publisher through Steam's regional bands. Switching store currency is not a supported way to buy cheaper, so buy in the region your account belongs to.

Achievements, cloud saves and family sharing

The store page lists single-player, Steam achievements, Steam Cloud and Family Sharing. There are 23 achievements and 20 of them are hidden by default.

Cloud saves mean a run can move between machines, which helps during the game's long backtracking stretches. Family Sharing lets another account in your household play the same copy with its own save.

The demo gap, and refunds

The demo was removed at launch, so there is no way to try the game for free any more. The nearest substitute is a refund: Steam's standard policy covers purchases under two hours of playtime.

Two hours is enough to reach the motel and open the first few locks, which is roughly representative of the pace. If the combat has not clicked by then, it probably will not.

What the store page does not tell you

Three things are easy to miss from the listing. There are no promo codes of any kind; the "codes" people search for are in-game puzzle locks. The Deluxe extras are files rather than in-game items. And the game is English-audio only, across ten text languages.

None of that is hidden, but none of it is prominent either. The codes hub explains the first point and the Deluxe page explains the second.

What else is on the store page?

The page lists single-player, Steam achievements, Steam Cloud and Family Sharing. There is no multiplayer, no co-op and no workshop support.

Three bundles are offered alongside the base game: one paired with Alan Wake at 10 percent off, one with CONSCRIPT at 33 percent off, and one with Tenebris Somnia at 10 percent off. All three are curated pairings rather than discounts on Silver Pines itself.

If you are deciding between this and a console copy, the Switch page and the PS5 page cover the differences. The Deluxe Edition page breaks down whether the extras are worth the seven-dollar premium.
