If you like card games (how preposterous, of course you do), might we recommend Rae's Solitaire? A lovely collection of some solitaire classics with a staggering amount of polish. You're in for a treat. (Tell her Blanche sent you. Blanche would do it herself, but she's busy playing Yukon.)

Fire up your Playdate and settle in for some Blanche tunes or any of the other great music and videos available on PeeDeeTV: peedee.tv

It's #BandcampFriday, and Blanche has got just the right tunes for a weekend of card games. Grab yourself a comfy drink, a deck of cards, and a copy of the Carte Blanche Original Soundtrack. Available now on 7" vinyl and 3" Mini CD (as well as downloadables). christopher-david-yudichak.ba...

The soundtrack to @howseven.com's Playdate card game Carte Blanche is now available on 7" vinyl. It marks the first time a Playdate game receives a vinyl soundtrack: blipblop.net/soundtrack-t...

The Mini CD version of the soundtrack we released a few weeks ago was made completely in-house. Literally. Assembled on our dining room table, in fact. 😄 Learn more at www.youtube.com/watch?v=rafs1... or get your copy today at www.carteblanche.cards/

Blanche has been whistling the tunes that play in her parlor the past few days and thought perhaps others would like to listen too. From @play.date to your stereo, the Carte Blanche Original Soundtrack is now available on 7" vinyl and 3" Mini CD (and downloadables). www.youtube.com/watch?v=rafs...

Listen. Hear that? Sounds like Blanche.

Hmm… Blanche, what did you buy?

Last day to celebrate ravens! …oh. Blanche has informed me you can celebrate ravens at any time. But it is the last day of the sale that is taking place in celebration of ravens. Get yourself some cards or a shirt, or if you have a Playdate, pick up the game at the best price yet!

It's International Crow and Raven Appreciation Day! Our friendly resident raven Blanche wants to celebrate by getting more people to learn and play card games. Until tomorrow, the game and select merch are 30% off. Learn more: www.carteblanche.cards#crow-raven-d... #indieDev #cardGames #playdate

Blanche enjoys a good game of cribbage, because it combines the strategy of choosing your discards with the tactical play of the count. But sometimes she gets a little indecisive about what to discard. Which cards would you discard here?

Go a cool set of real-life playing cards from Carte Blanche dev @theoddlinguist.bsky.social

It's almost time! Come join the fun as we celebrate another fantastic year of Playdate! 🎉

Grab your copy of the wonderful clap-along today, and get ready to cheer alongside some great Playdate games and apps in tomorrow's live event! Blanche is particularly appreciative of this option, because she says clapping with feathers doesn't seem to properly convey her level of excitement.

Many thanks to @cheymac.bsky.social for including Carte Blanche in her recommendations for the Catalog Anniversary Sale! So many great games to play, and Blanche is grateful to be included. Stop by for a round or two. What would you like to play? Cribbage? Gin Rummy? Cassino?

So many wonderful games on sale on Playdate Catalog! What are you planning on picking up? (If you’re looking for a cozy afternoon of cards with a bird friend, Carte Blanche is also on sale. play.date/games/carte-...)

It's Blanche's birthday! 🎈 (The game, not the bird. I… don't know how old Blanche herself is.) Blanche (the bird this time) has said she'd like to celebrate with some games. So let's play! Join us tonight at 8pm ET for some cozy card game fun. carteblanche.cards/live #indieDev #cardGames

Blanche is incredibly honored to be nominated in the upcoming Playdate Community Awards. She's going to celebrate the best way she knows how: by playing some card games. Best of luck to our fellow nominees and all the games featured in this year's event. It's been a great year for #playdate games!

Blanche and Christopher are practicing for tonight’s tournament. It’s a lot more work to keep the game on the table in sync with their actual game, but Blanche says it’s worth it because it’s fun. We agree. 8pm ET — carteblanche.cards/live #cribbage #playdate #indieDev

February 10 is Cribbage Day! Do you have any cribbage-y festivities planned? Playing on your @play.date, maybe? Or perhaps stop by our Cribbage Day 2026 Tournament? It's Blanche vs Christopher in a race around the ol' board. Feb 10 at 8pm ET. Visit carteblanche.cards/live for more information.

Is it snowing where you are? It's a few decks high so far here. Blanche would completely disappear! Perfect day for staying inside and playing card games. ❄️ www.carteblanche.cards/

The voting period for this year's Playdate Community Awards ends soon. So, if you'd like to show support for birds who like playing card games and sharing treasured finds with new friends: consider nominating "Carte Blanche". www.carteblanche.cards/vote #playdate #indieDev

It's been a great year for #playdate games, and it's time to celebrate. Nominations are open for this year's Playdate Community Awards! If you have a minute, Blanche would really appreciate if you'd nominate Carte Blanche. Visit www.carteblanche.cards/vote for details.

The holidays are here again! If you're looking for a gift for a fan of card games (or friendly birds), all How Seven! merch is 20% off. Blanche got one of the shirts, but she doesn't really fit in it. She just likes the way it looks. shop.howseven.com

Yukkuri Playdate Channel released a new video showcasing "Carte Blanche". Thanks so much for the thoughtful overview. (Blanche says "Thanks", as well! 😄) youtu.be/XswXIXG2HnM #playdate #indieDev

Many thanks to @marisamoureau.com for featuring Blanche alongside some other great Playdate games! Lots of great stuff to play out there. 😄 youtu.be/bsI8mHT8Aps

I genuinely—without trying to make a joke or reference—said out loud earlier today: "There are seven cans in there? How seven‽" …while also wearing this shirt.

Happy Halloween! 🎃 Ravens are scary, right? What about kind, gentle white-feathered ones? …who like card games? She gives out trinkets! (And pennies, but you'll like them more than when that old lady down the street handed them out.) Carte Blanche is 20% off on Catalog: play.date/games/carte-...

It's a great time to add to your Playdate library: the Catalog Fall Sale has begun! Blanche is on sale, along with over 200 other fantastic titles! Also, all our merch is on sale: 20% off everything. Get yourself a nice deck of cards for cozy autumn game nights. shop.howseven.com

In case you weren't aware: we hide a bunny in each of our games. Have you found any of them yet? #indieDev

Big thanks to @cheymac.bsky.social (of @engadget.bsky.social) for including Carte Blanche in this wonderful roundup of great Playdate games. Blanche is honored to be in such great company. www.engadget.com/gaming/best-...

It's International Crow and Raven Appreciation Day! Today, we celebrate our own friendly little raven, Blanche. She's always willing to make time for a game, teach you how to play, and share her treasures with you when you win. Thanks for being awesome, Blanche. #playdate #cardGames #indieDev

Spades is a fun trick-taking game, commonly for four players. But if you’re low on players, that’s no problem! Blanche loves to spend an afternoon drafting, bidding, and taking tricks—all with just two players. See how it works: youtu.be/ZiXAz4gSwE4 #cardGames #playdate #indieGame

Weekends are a great time for hobbies: card games, cross stitch, hanging out with friendly birds… What sorts of fun are you up to this weekend? #cardGames #crossStitch #friendlyBirds

Can you count to 15? How about 31? Well, grab your wooden board, because Blanche has got just the game for you! Cribbage is a game where your hand of cards is just as valuable as how well you can play them. See how it works: www.youtube.com/watch?v=9AtG... #cardGames #playdate #indieGame
