Excited to announce Forbidden Solitaire is an official selection for Day of the Devs x San Francisco Edition! 💀🎉 The game is being showcased at this FREE event alongside other fantastic indies March 8th! We'll be there in-person as well, so come chat with us! ℹ️ www.dayofthedevs.org/events/day-o...

Traditional solitaire? Not for me. A dark fantasy adaptation with a cursed game vibe? Genuinely a brilliant time. A proper #SteamNextFest gem, and like how Balatro was a weirdly fun introduction to poker, Forbidden Solitaire can do the same for, well, solitaire! I really need more 😭

We did a silly thing bsky.app/profile/grey...

I thought Forbidden Solitaire was gonna be 2 Spoopy 4 Me, and it may be later on, but the vibe is so charming, and the gameplay is so fucking addictive and tight, man... Solitaire masters, these guys. MASSIVE Inscryption vibes too, in the best ways. Really good stuff steampowered.com/app/3414580

Be careful what demos you play this weekend. 👁️🩸 💿FORBIDDEN SOLITAIRE DEMO: tinyurl.com/ywj43ptj

Jake and Callum at @greyalien.bsky.social were stealthily brewing up Forbidden Solitaire's stealth mechanics(!) and had me record a blind playtest for it! Those crazy bastards did it. How they perfectly translated MGS style stealth mechanics into turn-based solitaire gameplay is beyond me.

Yes it's true, we added some STEALTH LEVELS to Forbidden Solitaire. We joked about it once, but then I realised how it could be done, so we prototyped it, and it's fun!

Join the developer of Imprinted for a deep dive into how audio engineering works in the upcoming audio-heavy psychological horror game. #IGNFanFest

NextFest is upon us!! You brought home a strange yet familiar 1995 CD-ROM game from the thrift store. You vaguely remember seeing ads for this game, and some kind of controversy, but you never got the chance to play it. Until now. store.steampowered.com/app/3414580/... #SteamNextFest #Indiedev

In 1995, parent groups called for the ban of a solitaire game, citing its violent content, disturbing themes and a string of mysterious deaths that followed in its wake. 👁️🩸 You found a copy at a thrift store. Would you install it? 💿PLAY THE DEMO: store.steampowered.com/app/3414580/...

Started playing TR-49 and next thing I knew almost 3 hours had slipped by… joining dots between long buried references, author spats and sketchy publishing houses via an arcane basement contraption is SO my kind of game (& some codebreaking 📚) store.steampowered.com/app/3838370/...

I've only watched one episode of the latest #Bridgerton but the 'posh rake in love with the maid!' storyline seems a lot like Regency Solitaire II. I haven't read the books... will the ingenue's path to matrimony (?) be legitimised? Will she save the wayward rake from a life of excess, or join in?

Forbidden Solitaire is being made by two teams + contractors. Our team (Grey Alien Games) is on the older side - so I was a big gamer in the 80s and 90s, and played a bunch of classic Amiga and PC games in the 90s. The other team (Night Signal Entertainment) is younger than us and so ... 1/2

After a day of listening to a grumpy plumber swearing at our pipework (?!🚱) now the friendly Polish tarmac crew have rocked up with jackhammers and bitumen at 7PM (?!***⛏️?) directly outside our house. 🫠🫠🫠🫠🫠🫠🫠🫠🫠

Forbidden Solitaire! This is such a spooky little treat! I saw this game on the @sixoneindie.com Showcase last May, and to be finally playing a demo is so exciting! Can't wait for the full release! youtu.be/04-VEIwnvkM
