Our picks here only scratched the surface of cool demos that were available.

Reminder that David and I will be in San Francisco for GDC next week, hit me up if you wanna meet up, chat, summon otherworldly horrors together, etc. ☺️🤘

I went through 50 demos during last weeks Steam Next Fest, and ranked them to see which had the best Wishlist button.

Forbidden Solitaire by @greyalien.bsky.social was the winner with 14/15 points 🎉

A big spike that says Demo Launch. A bigger spike that says Next Fest.

Haven’t been able to watch it - even the concept scares me if I’m honest 😱

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

Forbidden Solitaire on Steam Forbidden Solitaire is a card-slashing horror game about unearthing the contents of a cryptic 1995 CD-ROM that should have never existed. From the creators of Ancient Enemy and Home Safety Hotline.

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

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

It’s 2019. 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.
