- Our next game is launching June 2! - 11 May 2022
Our next game, Card Shark, is launching on June 2! Firstly, we want to thank you for playing and supporting the Reigns series. What started as a relatively simple idea, a Game of Thrones story with Tinder gameplay, has grown into something that our team would never have imagined all those years ago. We've brought Reigns to the outer space, the board game table, and even to Westeros thanks to players like you! Our next game, Card Shark, is our most ambitious project so far. We've put years of love and craft into this game to make it stand out. You'll uncover a thrilling historical conspiracy in 18th century France by cheating at gambling salons, aristocratic abodes, and the King's table. You'll meet some of the most influential figures of the era like Voltaire and Louis XV along with historical tricksters and scammers. Nicolai Troshinsky created the eye-catching art style through monopri…
- Demo the new game from the creators of Reigns! - 21 February 2022
Devious deeds are afoot at the gambling tables! Attention Nobles! We’ve received word that a few of your guests may not be playing fair. The enigmatic Comte de St. Germain and his quiet apprentice have been winning generous sums across France. What’s more is that the Comte is investigating a mystery that goes as high as the King, Louis XV. They have perfected their techniques so the cheating goes unnoticed. However, I’ve heard that they can use sleight of hand, card marking, and secret signals to stack the deck in their favor. If you keep one eye on the cards and the other over your shoulder, you might have the wits to catch them in the act. There are few crimes lower than dishonesty at the table. If you catch them, I expect they'll receive severe punishment. I imagine you'd like to learn more about their nefarious schemes. Please join us at our new Discord Server; the best place for Ca…

- Reigns is being turned into a tabletop game - 16 July 2019
Reigns, the medieval monarch simulator controlled like Tinder, is being turned into a tabletop game. Rechristened as Reigns: The Council, this version will launch in the "imminent" future and transform the fast-paced ruling simulator into an asymmetric party game for three to six players. Just as in the original Reigns, one player will act as monarch and decide which suggestions from their council they will support - and which ones they will turn down. Read more
- Mellowing out with management games - 19 October 2018
My body betrayed me last month, trapping me in my bed when it wasn t sending me rushing to my poor, overworked loo. I couldn t sleep, I couldn t work and so I turned to management games to take my mind off the virus squatting inside me. Juggling budgets, disasters and production chains might not sound particularly relaxing, but there s also a swathe of low-pressure sims that serve as a brilliant panacea for stress. (more…)
- Reigns: Game of Thrones sets familiar heads rolling today - 18 October 2018
Monarchic decide ’em up Reigns was always close in spirit to Game Of Thrones. Thanks to a cross-promotion deal that I’m certain someone sold their soul for, they’re now one and the same, and out today. Reigns: Game Of Thrones combines the Tinder-inspired UI of Nerial’s series with the multiple perspectives and familiar world of HBO’s wildly successful TV novel adaptation. The game lets players control multiple characters and bodge their way through their own custom timeline in a way that would sound like fan-fiction if it weren’t an official game. Below, the launch trailer. (more…)
- Reigns really becomes Game Of Thrones in new official game - 23 August 2018
“Game Of Thrones + Tinder = You Died,” our Alec said in his Reigns review after swiping through cards to make binary decisions in the medieval monarch RPG. Well, that equation is about to get even simpler: “ Reigns: Game Of Thrones = You Died.” An official Game Of Thrones version of Reigns is coming soon, developers Nerial and publishers Devolver Digital announced today. Swipers will be able to play as a number of different Game players, then discover that all their “Right, so they could come out on top if…” theories will likely end in terrible death. (more…)

- Fantastical Tinder sim Reigns: Her Majesty is out now - 10 December 2017
Nerial’s Reigns is a simple (if strange-sounding) concept stretched to its absolute limits. Take the UI of dating-for-impatient-people app Tinder, and use it to steer the life of a monarch one meeting at a time, juggling political threats and multiple story-threads all through the simple, binary act of swiping left or right. Today, you can get a second helping of this strange but compelling formula. The queenly sequel Reigns: Her Majesty is out now, promising an all-new story built around the now-familiar mechanics, plus a few new twists to the tale. Read on for details and the positively charming launch trailer. (more…)
- First update - 8 December 2017
Thanks for playing Reigns: Her Majesty, we're glad you enjoy it! Some of you encountered a few problems, errors in the text, slightly unbalanced situations where a specific death was triggered every time and issues with the end game. Hopefully most of that should be corrected now. For Linux users the game seem to have a few problems when it tries to open in full screen. I've added an argument to the launch script which should open the game in window mode, hope that helps. To force the resolution window, press "alt" while the game opens. If you need to reset the game for one reason or another, press "R" for 5 seconds. Thanks, best regards, F.
