The Generous Indie Game

On last Saturday, the 24th of March, the indie game publisher Supsoap decided to do a giveaway of their game Faerie Solitaire to all redditor. They will give out a total of 50,000 keys for the game. To do this, Supsoap will give away a total of 425,000 dollars. However, I think I do not think this is a waste of money. I believe this is a very creative way to promote the game. Giving out 50,000 keys will not cause Supsoap to lose any money, but it will definitely bring in sales. As players get impress with the game, (I know I'm) they will surely buy the game as a gift later for others. If you're interested in getting a free copy of the game for yourself, you should check out the reddit post here. At the time of writing this post, there are still some keys left, and if you hurry you should be able to get one. The game Faerie Solitaire is a Solitaire game equipped with a story, challenges, pets, and shops. It also won the The Wall Street Journal - Gamehouse "Most Addictive Game" in 2010. Personally, I usually do not to play Solitaire, but the way the game have set itself in such a way that I have come to love playing Solitaire. It's definitively worth a try.
