This is the last day ELSINORE is 60% off.

I can't emphasize enough how much these player reviews mean to us. When you make something as personal as ELSINORE, knowing you've reached... anyone is everything.

Thank you, everyone, who has followed us over the years. We’re probably going silent for a bit again-- our marketing budget is only our mental energy. But if you like Elsinore, do think to tell your friends about it!

Some of these games people compare ELSINORE to are... well, fantastic, and it's an honor to be mentioned in the same sentence. You should check them out, if you haven't yet!

A great time to support indies in general, this steam winter sale thing. Here's a “Shakespearean Shenanigans” bundle we're in if you want to buy in bulk :)

Oh good, seems it did, indeed, become 2021. Was a little worried I'd jinx us with yesterday's time loop joke.

And ELSINORE is still 60% off! Perhaps your resolution was to play more indie games? :)

2020 is finally ending! Unless, of course, we wake up tomorrow and its the start of that year all over again... ugh. If you want to keep your tragic time loops fictional, Elsinore is here for you.

ELSINORE is the game it is because everyone on the game— writers, designers, programmers, and artists alike— were united around the goal of realizing Hamlet into an interactive sandbox.

It sure was hell of a lot of work. But we’re proud of it, every day.

Anyway, buy this thing we’re proud of for DIRT CHEAP while it’s still on sale! DO IT!

One week left in ELSINORE's 60% off sale!!

So here's a bunch of "short and sweet" player reviews, in case the longer ones were not doing it for ya.

Pick up ELSINORE during the sale and you, too, can call out Claudius however you want!

Or... uh, sleep with him. Maybe both? Up to you, really.

Be like Tactful! Pick up ELSINORE on a whim!

(Game is still 60% off for the holidays, after all. There is no better time.)

The timeloop format gives so much potential to explore alternate stories, even within the tragic constraints of the original tale. Did you know there were pirates in Hamlet? Hell, why not hang out with them instead of the stuffy nobles? (The odds of them killing you are probably about the same...)

Happy holidays, all. Much love to every one of you, and thank you to everyone who gave us their time and played ELSINORE over the last year.

This was our nights and weekends project for six years. Reviews like these really mean the world to us.

This player review really embraces the spirit of the game: pressing on after a tragic mishap. :)

And look, in case you were worried about that “Shakespearean murder sim game” being forever grimdark, this review establishes ELSINORE has jokes! It’s not all serious business in Hamletville.

Anyway, jokes and tragic mishaps alike are still available at a generous Steam Winter Sale discount!

To be honest, when putting this player review compilation together, some of the praise for ELSINORE was so effusive that... well, obviously, it was really nice to read. But also part of me was like "will people believe this??"

But hey, at 60% off, cheaper than ever to find out for yourself.

ELSINORE is 60% off for the Steam Winter Sale!

If you're somehow still on the fence, we'll be sharing some reviews over the next few days from those who already picked up our obscure little tragedy sim. :)
