PLAYISM Opens Demos For Three New Games On Steam
PLAYISM bundled three demos from small studios into one release window, giving each project a free trial ahead of release dates that run from 2026 to 2027.
Reporting from 1 source: Automaton.
PLAYISM opened free PC demos for three upcoming games on October 8: Skateboard Knight, an auto-scrolling action roguelite by Maroru Games; A Passing in the Night, a short occult adventure by .iris; and Dungeon Sweeper Plus, a Minesweeper-style world-development game by Setamo that expands on the free title Dungeon Sweeper. Skateboard Knight is slated for 2027 on PC, iOS, and Android. A Passing in the Night targets spring 2027 on PC, and Dungeon Sweeper Plus targets 2026 on PC.
The three demos went live together on October 8, and each one covers a different genre: a lane-based auto-scroller, a slow occult walk, and a tile-clicking world builder. Two of the games are by solo or small teams, and the third is an expanded version of a free game that already found an audience. Only the Skateboard Knight demo is described as an updated build that overhauls its earlier systems; the other two are offered as they are.
- Skateboard Knight: Action roguelite by Maroru Games; demo available now, release in 2027 on PC, iOS, and Android
- A Passing in the Night: Short occult adventure by .iris; demo available now, release in spring 2027 on PC
- Dungeon Sweeper Plus: Minesweeper-style world-development game by Setamo; demo available now, release within 2026 on PC
