Shutter Story Tops 100,000 Steam Wishlists Ahead of Q1 2027 Release
A 100,000-wishlist milestone on a demo-backed indie horror game is the kind of number a small studio can point to when it approaches publishers and platform holders, and Frostwood now has one before the game has shipped.
Reporting from 1 source: Game Spark.
Frostwood Interactive's horror game Shutter Story passed 100,000 Steam wishlist registrations on October 21, ahead of a Q1 2027 release on Windows. Players analyze photos and videos at a friend's request to judge whether they are psychic photographs. The demo has a Very Positive rating with 96% of 312 reviews recommending it, and an October 13 update added full voice acting and rebuilt the house exploration sections.
The wishlist figure arrived a day before the developer used its official X account to credit BioWare, whose closure was announced, as the reason it became a developer and came to love games in general. Frostwood Interactive's own comment tied the response to a childhood memory of finding a ghost in an old photograph.
The demo is doing the selling. It sits at Very Positive with 96% of 312 reviews recommending it, and the October 13 update added voice acting for all characters and a visual overhaul of the house exploration sections. The full game is set for Windows via Steam in Q1 2027.
