What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“While the core gameplay loop is finished and available to players, I intend to regularly update the game with new narrative and lore elements that players can unlock. Also, customizables such as card backs will be added over time. My intention in using the Early Access feature is also to heavily involve the community in the development of new content, new features, bug fixes, accessibilty options, among other things.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“The game will be in Early Access approximately 8 to 12 months.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“More playable Time Patrons. A true ending when everything is released and unlocked by the players. More solitaire variants. More card backs. New unlockable lore told through digital comics.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The core gameplay loop of going through the 10 levels of The Solitaire Tower of Doom is playable from beginning to end.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“Early Access will be roughly half price of the final game. The price will only change when the final version is released.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“The two core channels to involve the community will be the Steam social hub and a dedicated Discord server.”

About This Game

UNCOVER THE OCCULT SECRET HISTORY OF SOLITAIRE IN THIS HORROR ROGUELIKE

What do Louis XIV, Winston Churchill, Mary Stuart Queen of Scots, Napoleon, John Dee, Goethe and Casanova have to do with Solitaire? Everything!

The History of Solitaire spans centuries, countries and various historical figures who by chance or by fate were intertwined in the cosmic mathematics of Solitaire.

--------

The year is 1990. You are a simple clerk in an office building in Montreal.

Since Solitaire's release, you love playing it on your computer, especially during office hours.

What you don't know yet, is that you've been playing Solitaire non-stop for days... weeks.... months?!

The Cult of Patience, a villainous secret society, has taken control of your office building, enslaving everyone inside to play Solitaire in the hopes that The Sacred Shuffle, a unique arrangement of a single Solitaire game, will emerge.

They see the digitalization of Solitaire as the perfect opportunity.

With the help of Time Patrons, historical figures such as Louis XIV, Winston Churchill, John Dee and many others, you must find the Sacred Shuffle before The Cult of Patience discovers that you alone are destined to play it.

The Solitaire Tower of Doom is a run-based roguelike descent — points and unlocks carry over between runs, so every attempt at the Sacred Shuffle brings you closer to new Time Patrons, lore, and card backs.
