SOFIA, BULGARIA, February 3, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Following a successful direct-to-consumer launch, independent developer Bromelain Games has officially expanded its latest title, The Green Star, to the itch.io platform. This standalone Atomic Age cosmic horror mystery is a printable escape room game that combines the narrative depth of a graphic novel with the interactive puzzles of a traditional board game.

The game features artwork adapted from the June 1959 issue of a Golden Age science fiction comic book titled Mysteries of Unexplored Worlds. Players investigate a remote 1950s observatory by physically manipulating printed game materials. Gameplay requires cutting, folding, and aligning paper components while using a 3D browser-based "Bancroft Telescope" interface to verify puzzle solutions and advance the mystery narrative.

The goal with this standalone mission was to lean into the specific sense of mystery found in mid-century sci-fi. By using authentic Golden Age art as the foundation for tactile puzzles and a zero-friction digital interface, the design team at Bromelain Games has created an experience that feels like a recovered Cold War dossier coming to life on your tabletop.

The mission is now available to the broader indie gaming community on itch.io. While it is a self-contained story, it serves as an expansion of the universe first established in the studio's Victorian Gothic series, The Secret of Langton Manor.
