Awesome take on the classic card game mixed with old school dungeon crawling and card battling. Definitely had the 90's feel of the classic FMV games of the time and an interesting story as well. 5/5 stars ! Loved the game !
amazing horror soltair game wich was not a genre i thouhgt i needed
short and sweet. A nice spooky game that you can complete in an evening. Gonna replay this on halloween. If you hate solitaire then it might not be fun for you (who doesn't like solitaire?).

For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 26 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 7 places towards #1, and the 2,402 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

I loved playing through the campaign. This didn't come as a surprise as this was the case with every previously released Grey Alien Games products. The story is a notch above past efforts, imho. The retro PC vibe is expertly handled and feels very genuine, even though it is mostly a cosmetic affordance. Boss battles are intense yet always fair and even the simpler levels are brilliantly laid out. Think of how you would design a solitaire level which would harness the experience of going down winding stairs...it's in there! This marriage of design and narrative is subtle, not as impactful as with the Tetris Effect but it does add a layer of sheen to the game. I love that there is a New Game+ mode (added shortly after product launch). Completing both game modes felt satisfying and clearing even the 'harder' achievements can be done with minimal fuss, made even more convenient with the New Game+ customization options. Once everything the game has to offer has been consumed, however, I found that I'd rather go back to Ancient Enemy or Shadowhand, as they seem to offer more in terms of replayability. 12 hours, well spent, no regrets, tons of fun. A nice ride, expertly tuned.
Great 90's theme and horror story. I finished the game in ~5 hours, which felt about right, but if you want more play time there's an NG+ setting to replay any levels with different settings.
Macht echt Spass!
Best Solitaire I ever played!
a fun solitaire game with very well balanced difficulty - not too challenging and fun enough to complete in a few sittings. I liked the retro graphics and "game within a game" story.
Come for the spooky atmosphere, stay for the tactical Solitaire mechanics. Recommended!
Not bad, worth a playthrough. The campaign gets a little repetative towards the end, but interesting to see how some new mechanics spice up a classic like solitaire.
