I have never played the game, but it looks absolutely fascinating. Enjoy the official details below.
On November 4, 2021, indie developer The Game Band along with publisher Snowman will release their award-winning puzzle game Where Cards Fall for the Nintendo Switch and PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store.
Where Cards Fall is a slice of life puzzle game where you build houses of cards to bring formative memories to life. After its initial launch on Apple Arcade, Where Cards Fall quickly garnered critical acclaim and was subsequently named a 2020 Apple Design Award Winner. Soon players on PC and Switch will be able to create their own pathways across dreamlike spatial puzzles all within a captivating coming-of-age story.
Where Cards Fall features:
– Custom tailored controls and character animations for PC and Switch
– 50 challenging spatial puzzles that exercise your imagination and strategic thinking skills
– A unique art style inspired by contemporary artistic movements
– Tactile, accessible controls hand-crafted for every device
– Immersive audio and an original soundtrack. Headphones recommended!
Where Cards Fall’s coming-of-age story isn’t a straight line, but a cyclical process the characters engage with time and time again. The houses of cards give each scene a distinct identity and sense of place. As you solve puzzles, you’ll gain small glimpses into the characters’ lives, uncovering memories within the houses of cards. While the puzzles gently flow into each other, things don’t always conclude neatly.
About The Game Band
The Game Band is an award-winning video game studio that aims to inspire hearts and minds with games that push the boundaries of interactive storytelling. The studio is known for the critically acclaimed slice-of-life puzzler Where Cards Fall and the viral sensation Blaseball.
Founder and Creative Director Sam Rosenthal began working on Where Cards Fall in a dorm room at the University of Southern California. While working on other projects (What Remains of Edith Finch, Skylanders, Where’s My Water?), he kept the spirit of the game alive in his spare time, re-igniting it years later after meeting Snowman Co-Founder Ryan Cash.
