  • Community Feedback Update - 7 September 2026

    Brushwork 1.1.9 — community-feedback update: Sets/Trials shelf progress now records correctly (level records were stored under the public puzzle id but looked up by raw content id, so solved Sets boards never marked complete and Trials stayed locked; existing solves reappear retroactively); Steam Cloud hardening so a reinstall can no longer wipe campaign progress (uploads now always follow an initial cloud pull, and progress files missing locally are restored from the cloud instead of deleting the cloud copy); Medium/Hard runtime puzzle generation moved to a background thread with a Cancel button (no more white-screen freeze); Simplified Chinese localization now correctly calls the puzzle type 数墙 (Nurikabe) instead of 数回 (Slitherlink); includes the multi-monitor primary-display placement fix

  • Brushwork released today - 7 May 2026

    After a long period of developing a game based on a puzzle that I have really enjoyed learning about and playing over the last 6 months, Brushwork is now live on Steam with a 20% off for launch week. Brushwork is a Nurikabe puzzle game in the spirit of Sudoku, where you are given a board with clues and must fill in cells to create islands subject to certain conditions. Forty-eight lessons walk you through the rules and the techniques one idea at a time. After the path there are challenge boards, mastery sets, and daily and weekly boards on shared seeds and your solve time will go on leaderboards to compare with everyone else. The hint system is there if you need it as part of the learning and solving process. At launch: - 1,344 puzzles, 5x5 through 15x15, four difficulty tiers.- Campaign mode, free play, timed challenge, daily/weekly boards- Per-level Steam leaderboards plus daily and w…

Short description

Hand-painted Nurikabe with an authored learning path, fixed challenge books, explain-before-reveal hints, and recurring daily and weekly competition boards.

About this game

Learn Nurikabe through crafted puzzles, not disposable filler. Brushwork is a premium Nurikabe puzzle game built around authored teaching, stable challenge sets, and readable hand-painted presentation. Start with a guided path that teaches core island-and-sea logic one idea at a time, then settle into fixed books, mastery sets, and recurring competition boards designed for repeat play. A premium logic game with a real learning curve. Instead of endless random boards with uneven quality, Brushwork focuses on curated progression. Early lessons teach clean deduction habits. Later shelves ask for precision, speed, and consistency. When you need help, explain-before-reveal hints show the reasoning before they fill a cell. Return every day for clean competitive runs. Daily and weekly boards use stable seeds so every player gets the same challenge. Chase fast times, low move counts, and cleaner clears while comparing results on the leaderboards. Key Features - Authored path lessons that teach actual Nurikabe deduction habits one concept at a time. - Fixed challenge books and mastery sets built for replayable premium puzzle solving. - Explain-before-reveal hints that teach the deduction instead of skipping straight to the answer. - Daily and weekly competition boards with stable seeds and leaderboard tracking.

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: Sep 22, 2026 to Sep 22, 2026
  • Lowest observed: $4.99
  • Highest observed: $4.99

Brushwork's USD price history spans from Sep 22, 2026 to Sep 22, 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 $4.99, the highest is $4.99, and the first visible tracked price is $4.99. 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

Brushwork'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 $4.99, from Sep 22, 2026 through Sep 22, 2026. Among rows without discount metadata, the longest unchanged run lasts 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking at $4.99. The latest run records $4.99 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: $4.99
  • Current list price: $4.99
  • Distinct observed prices: 1
  • Source mode: SteamPulse local tracking

The latest tracked snapshot records Brushwork at $4.99 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.
