Mephe: A fellow GOGer was kind enough to send me a Steam key, and I've tried the game out. Surprisingly entertaining for a card game, and very polished. Seems like the devs know what they're doing. I'll definitely consider getting the bundle.
Good to know you like it. I also already spent several hours on that seemingly simple game. Also if you feel it is "too easy" just wait for later on - I am almost not getting any "perfects" at level 5.
Another thing is you can check the "core mechanic" for their upcoming "Faerie Alchemy" game on google for free.
Interesting concept, but from what I can see of the two games they have actually made so far, their games do not appeal to me at all. Since they're very secretive about the games they have in the pipeline, I have to assume that they will be more of the same. I think I'll pass.

Brian mentioned one of the "other" new games would be "adventure" of some sort and also one of them would be steampunk-themed. I think it is possible to ask him more questions to find out.
Here is the info from the bundle page


Faerie Alchemy - IN DEV

Faerie Alchemy expands the Faerie universe with alchemical fantasy and puzzle gameplay involving transmutation. Travel the lands past Avalon to find ancient magic and to uncover an ultimate evil's plot.

FaeSaga - IN DEV

Classic adventure gameplay re-imagined. FaeSaga is an experimental project. Cross-Platform Co-op? RPG Mechanics? Anything is possible!

Secret Game #1

Planned for release later this year.
A card game that will give you nightmares...

Secret Game #2

Another game planned for release later this year.
It is a puzzle game with a high fantasy story.

It also seemed to me Subsoap is quite open to suggestions. I have seen Brian ask people "what do you want?" a couple of times in answering this question on steamgits.

If he wants my money, he can damn well say what he's up to of his own volition. Right now, all I see is "FAIRIES!", so that's the impression he's putting out. That doesn't give me any incentive to seek more information about his games.
I was skeptical about Faerie Solitaire but I've installed the game on this past Friday to play something casual before bed and ended up 4 hours later at 1 AM still playing. I've then managed to pull myself away but I have to say it surprised me.
I mean I'd expect this from Bejeweled 3 for example knowing that lots of money went to psychologists and experts like that to make the game addictive. But I did not expect it from an indie.

Yep, that was my first experience with FS as well. That is why I am talking about Subsoap here.
I bought the game for like a buck, and I was going to buy FS2 anyway... so I sent for an infinity bundle key.

I'll still probably buy an additional copy in the future to support them.

IB already has FS2 digital collector's edition in it.
Let me know, if you want to trade your extra IB-key..
@Anyone who got the Infinite Bundle at normal price
Does it include Soundtracks as a separate downloadable pack?

Thanks

I think it does include soundtacks for the following reason.
Brian aka Pkeod told me IB will include "digital collector's editions" of all Subsoap games.
And here is what DCE of FS2 has in it:
Collector's Edition
$9.97

Full Game
100 adventure mode locations plus all other standard content.
Bonus Content
Includes tons and tons of additional content for the game.
Soundtrack Download
Downloadable copy of both the Faerie Solitaire and Faerie Solitaire 2 soundtracks.

PDF Art Book
A PDF version of the 100+ page Faerie Solitaire 2 art book.

I do not know how "separate" that would be, but I guess it would be "separate" enough. ;)

Thanks for the reply.
UPD Thanks to mighty ET3D I now also have an IB key so, if anyone has additional questions about it, I will try to answer those as well.

I asked Brian about "more details on future games" and this is the answer I received

" FaeSaga has some preview stuff here but it's kind of old: http://subsoap.com/games/faesaga "

"More card but some different variations, more diverse themes. Adventure games, actions games. All 2D. Mostly singleplayer, but we will experiment with multiplayer. That's short term. Long term who knows! "

So, no real info anyway. Oh well, I'll pass. If he ever makes something interesting, I'll have a look at it, but I'm definitely not getting this.

Well, that is what I got at the moment. If I find out more, I will post it here. Anyway, if you see something that interests you, there is still time until the end of the month. :)
