3 Cards to Midnight is expected to be released later this week (May 6th, to be exact).

Those of you who haven't had a chance to see the new website, trailer and screenshots can have a look here.

The game (at this stage) is releasing via download only. We should be getting news very soon as to which sites will be sponsoring the download.

EDIT: Updated news -- The game will release at 7PM ET on Thursday, May 7.

Thanks Becky. It seems like download is the way of the future which is not good news for a dial up dinosaur like me. cry


It's nice to be important but it is much more important to be nice.

Thank you Becky!
I guess, i´ve got something here that fits into the countdown very well! Just minutes ago, i published a brandnew interview with Aaron Conners , with the whole focus on Three Cards to Midnight. Of course i made an english version of the interview available as well. So, if you´re interested in details about the game, i definetely recommend to read it as i think it works great as a nice little factsheet before the release. The first interview from august 2008 is linked in the article as well by the way. I hope you´ll enjoy it. smile
P.S. If you want to leave feedback on our website (about the interview or if you just want to yell out the circumstance that Aaron Conners and Chris Jones rule :-) ) you can do it right here . You don´t have to register ,just click on "Kommentare" beneath the interview-news, write your text and click on "Absenden" (some times you need to confirm your comment twice by clicking "absenden" for some strange reason).

Well, i already finished the review version twice, and i´m not going into any details before the actual release of the game, i can only say that i have a totally different opinion and that this was one of the most exciting and best written games i played in years.

Perry, we do not discuss Beta versions here. Not fair to judge an unfinished product. Discussion can be made on the retail version only. Your post has been edited out.

Gamenut -- I don't see anything on the website about system requirements, but when it releases tomorrow, I expect they'll include that info.

Thanks I am very interested in this game but a bit confused.

I thought it was a casual game- an Hidden object type game with a twist?
