    Hello! This is the Holy Crap! dev team.Thanks to all the love and support you’ve shown for Holy Crap! I'm Out of Paper! : The In-Law Survival, we’re finally taking on Holy Crap! Episode 2.The title of our new project is Holy Crap!

Short description

Trapped in a restaurant bathroom with no toilet paper. 25 ways to ruin your life.

About this game

No toilet paper. No way out. No dignity. A text-based survival comedy where you're trapped in a fancy restaurant bathroom — minutes before the most important dinner of your life. 25 catastrophic endings. All of them your fault. The Setup Tonight, you're meeting your partner's parents for the first time — at the fanciest restaurant in town. You've rehearsed your greetings. You've ironed your shirt. You even memorized their dog's name. But right now, none of that matters. Because you're locked in the restaurant bathroom, pants around your ankles, staring at an empty toilet paper roll. Your future mother-in-law just texted: "We're here! Where are you? :)" Your phone is at 4%. The clock is ticking. How It Plays Anything can be toilet paper if you're desperate enough. Your necktie. Your socks. Your underwear. The restaurant's fancy hand towels. Look around the bathroom — if you can see it, you can wipe with it. But every "substitute" comes with consequences. Terrible, terrible consequences. Text so vivid you'll wish there were LESS detail. No graphics needed. Your imagination does the heavy lifting — and it will punish you for it. Players have reported physically cringing, gagging, and laughing until they cried. Sometimes all at once. 25 endings, each worse than the last. A million-dollar lawsuit. A SWAT team raid. A devastatingly public breakup at the dinner table. One ending so cursed we almost cut it from the game. Every choice branches into chaos you never saw coming. 5-minute runs. Infinite regret. One playthrough takes just 5–10 minutes. Collecting all 25 endings? That's between you and your therapist. "Why Am I Still Playing This?" Here's the thing: Game Over screens in this game don't make you angry. They make you laugh so hard you forget to breathe. You'll tell yourself you're done. Then you'll think: "Wait... what happens if I use THAT?" And you're back in the bathroom. Again. From the gut-wrenching tension of a clean getaway to epilogues that will have you wheezing on the floor — this is a dark comedy show disguised as a game. Every ending is a punchline. Every choice is a mistake. And you won't be able to stop. Perfect for Sharing Shor…

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 5, 2026 to Oct 5, 2026
  • Lowest observed: $2.99
  • Highest observed: $2.99

Holy Crap! I'm Out of Paper! : The In-Law Survival Guide's USD price history spans from Oct 5, 2026 to Oct 5, 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 $2.99, the highest is $2.99, and the first visible tracked price is $2.99. 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

Holy Crap! I'm Out of Paper! : The In-Law Survival Guide'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 $2.99, from Oct 5, 2026 through Oct 5, 2026. Among rows without discount metadata, the longest unchanged run lasts 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking at $2.99. The latest run records $2.99 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: $2.99
  • Current list price: $2.99
  • Distinct observed prices: 1
  • Source mode: SteamPulse local tracking

The latest tracked snapshot records Holy Crap! I'm Out of Paper! : The In-Law Survival Guide at $2.99 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.
