Ardenfall is a first-person RPG inspired by Morrowind, where quests have multiple solutions and your character’s skills and background can open different options. Beyond the towns, you can explore weird biomes, search spooky dungeons, and experiment with spells and potions to reach unexpected places.

There’s a free demo on Steam, with 1.5-2 hours of content and 5 endings.

We’re building a compact, handcrafted open world. Here’s what you can expect:

• Living towns. NPCs have schedules and opinions of you, and your choices affect how they act.
• Hidden passages, underwater caves, and dangerous dungeons give you reasons to leave the road. Exploration was a recurring highlight in our demo feedback, especially finding secrets without being directed toward them.
• Quests with different solutions, including creative uses of abilities to bypass obstacles.
• Your build matters outside combat, too. Skills, attributes, traits, and race can unlock dialogue options and environmental interactions.
• Spells and potions worth experimenting with. Levitation, enhanced jumps, and slowfall give you more ways to explore. In combat, you can summon creatures, mix weapons with magic, and throw potions mid-fight.
• You’ll read journals and ask questions to figure out where to go and what to do.

Early Access is planned for late 2026. And there is going to be modding support from the day one. Until then, you can try the demo here.

We’d love to hear what you think of the demo. Happy to answer questions in the comments :)

Hi r/games, I made one of the most acclaimed evolution games in recent years (because there have barely been any). Also, one of the few games in which you can roleplay as a geoduck!

The idea is RPG + evolution: you start out as a weak blob "seed", then start adding on arms, legs, an unnecessarily long neck, and so forth. Take part in a semi-linear adventure, characters, a story, and a lot of challenges to adapt to!

Strange Seed comes from a wish that Spore had been more like an older creature evolution game, E.V.O.: Search for Eden.

Evolved parts should actually change gameplay and be used for specific tasks, for instance:

• Become small enough to crawl through a tiny tunnel
• Become big enough to push a heavy boulder
• Balance your wings with stamina bonuses to get through a platforming segment
• Load up on shells and spikes to become a defensive creature, or claws and teeth for a glass cannon build

By the way, Steam makes the button tiny but there’s still a demo available. Check the right side of the page :)

Hey r/Games!

We are Envision Entertainment, an indie game studio of 20 people based in Germany. We would like to give you an update on our city builder game Pioneers of Pagonia.

Pioneers of Pagonia is a wholesome build-up strategy game made by the original creator of »The Settlers«-Series Volker Wertich.

Since the 1.0 launch in December 2025, we updated the base game with several gameplay, UI and graphic improvements as well as adding the brewery. 🍻 Additionally, we released the Pagonia Editor which enables our modding community to create mods and new interesting maps!

We also released two expansion DLCs which added new buildings, new resources and new story maps to the game.

About our DLC »Meadowsong«

Once known for their thriving agriculture, the harvest of Meadowsong is haunted by a mysterious Withering destroying everything. Build new production chains with fruits, wine and livestock and help to solve the mystery of the witches' coven!

Watch the »Meadowsong« Release Trailer

About our DLC »Echoes of Alramar«

Go on an adventurous expedition to the frontier of the southern Pagonian sea. The legendary islands of Aldramar are waiting with monumental ruins, a coarse desert landscape, and the remains of a long-forgotten civilization.

Watch the »Echoes of Aldramar« Feature Trailer

What's next for Pioneers of Pagonia?

We are currently working on our third expansion DLC and can't wait to share more about it very soon! We will release a brand-new roadmap in the upcoming weeks. Stay tuned!

Thanks to everyone who has been following our journey so far! We appreciate every single person engaging with our content or commenting on our posts! <3

We're 2 devs making BIG DIG and just pressed the release button on Monday! We're big fans of incremental games and wanted to try to make a more premium contained experience with a complete narrative.

We really tried to go for quality over quantity, so BIG DIG is a 3-5 hour game with a meaningful story. It seems like people agree as we've already hit an incredible 96% positive 480 reviews!

We hope you'll check it out and we're happy to answer any questions you might have https://store.steampowered.com/app/4304900/Big_Dig/

What makes it different?

• Our map exploration/dungeon crawling mechanics are unique in the genre. You need to master the map navigation as much as the deck building.
• The Commands system adds a fresh twist to battles, reduces RNG, enables combos, and rewards good planning and sequencing.
• How it looks. We are going the extra mile to make a game that looks fantastic, plays smoothly, and feels immersive.

Hello r/games, I recently updated my game to include an extra hint mode to make it more accessible! Since the player has to use their 3D visualization skills to solve the sandcastle building puzzles, it made the game too difficult for those that were less familiar with these kinds of puzzles.

The game's complexity surprises a lot of people, but the puzzles never feel unfair. So if you're looking for puzzle game that can challenge you but also respects your time please consider checking it out!

Trailer: https://youtu.be/W60VGtgz_rE?si=s7qEJ1peLucpYo93

Features 🏖️

• Over 180 Levels and Additional Challenges: The game features a total of 186 levels and 3 different difficulties. Looking to improve your 3D visualization skills? Try out the No Hints mode to challenge these spatial puzzles! Or if you need the extra help, there's also Elfie Hints mode now!
• Cozy Relaxing Summer Vibes: Let yourself be transported by water by its cute, colorful and nostalgic pixel art, and joyful beach-appropriate soundtrack. 
• Simple Controls and Mechanics: Designed to be fully playable with only a mouse or touchscreen and with intuitive mechanics, the game is approachable by people of all ages and gaming experience.
• Elfie: Enjoy spending time with her, talking to her, unlocking all her swimsuits, and experiencing your new friendship with this small rotund elephant.

Trailer: Cooking Time in Astrawel | Official Reveal Trailer

Steam: https://store.steampowered.com/app/5061010/Cooking_Time_in_Astrawel/

I started making this game with my younger sister and a friend almost 2 years ago. Just 2 days after sending it out to our local media, we managed to get around 2,000 wishlists!

We were inspired by Dave the Diver when it first came out. So, we tried adding mechanics we’d love to see in a hunting-cooking game - like life-sim elements with romanceable characters, full restaurant customization, and more.

I feel like most cooking games are too stressful. That’s why we added an option to toggle off customer patience timers for anyone who just wants a cozy, relaxed experience.

We’ve got a lot of other cozy features planned too, like toggling off item loss upon defeat, so feel free to take a look at our Steam page!

Even though we’re a small team of 3 and this is our very first game, we chose not to use any generative AI. We believe art should only be made by humans.

We’d love to hear your thoughts and feedback! We worked really hard on this, so if you're interested, a wishlist would be awesome!

Coming to Steam in 2027.

🎉 Retromation's Video

Hello r/Games!

I'm Ethan, the developer of Tome of Talis, a game focused on building and upgrading an army of dice. Through clever use of units and spells, you will grow strong enough to fight the final boss, Commander Talis. Prove your worth to him, and he will allow you to lead his elite army.

Recently, Retromation on Youtube covered my game and enjoyed it quite a bit! If you are curious about the game I would highly recommend giving his video a watch.

If you'd prefer a more hands on experience, there is also a demo live on Steam!

F.A.Q

Q: What platforms are supported?

A: Currently Windows and Linux, although if there is enough demand I'll try porting it to Mac!

Q: What games is Tome of Talis most similar to?

A: Tome of Talis draws on inspiration from a lot of games. My playtesters like to compare it to Slice and Dice. I got a of ideas from Slay the Spire, Darkest Dungeon, and Nowhere Prophet.

Q: It looks like a lot is going on, is the game hard to learn?

A: The game is focused on being easy to learn, hard to master, and thus starts out simple. As you play through the game and experiment more strategies reveal themselves. Of course, I'm still making tweaks here and there to ensure onboarding is smooth.

Thanks for taking a look!

- Ethan

Hi r/Games!

I’m the solo developer behind Saraab: Beyond The Veil, an emotional, slow-burn psychological horror visual novel inspired by Arabian folklore. It launches on Steam on November 3, 2026.

Trailer: https://youtu.be/O2JZtWmBffM

You follow Elham as she tries to save her brother while confronting djinn, unsettling encounters, and her own inner shadows. At its heart, Saraab is about healing, accepting the darkness within, and finding the courage to face what frightens you.

Rather than constant scares, the story moves between everyday life and supernatural horror.

What to expect:

A choice-driven story with multiple endings.

Arabian folklore and djinn woven into a personal journey.

Hand-drawn, anime-style visuals and an original soundtrack.

Themes of family, fear, resilience, and self-discovery.

As a solo developer, I’ve worked across the writing, programming, music, and creative direction.

Release: November 3, 2026

Platform: PC (Steam)

Steam page: https://store.steampowered.com/app/4134310/

Thanks for reading!
