November 14, 2025 by Matt Brandwein

Explore three new science fiction worlds from acclaimed authors Alan Dean Foster, Ramez Naam, and Charles Stross! Each is a doorway to a different future - from mind-linked revolutionaries to lonely androids to wisecracking aliens.

Coming this month:

• Dead Man’s Tale 👽 – Based on a never-before-published novelette by Alan Dean Foster, experience an alien symbiote literally living rent-free in your head, in a buddy comedy where death isn’t necessarily the end. As a bonus for Hidden Door players, get exclusive access to Alan Dean Foster's new story today!

• Nexus 💊 – Based on Ramez Naam’s trilogy, dive into a near-future where mind-linking technology blurs the line between human and machine. Join the activists, scientists, and spies racing to decide the fate of post-human evolution.

• Saturn’s Children 🚀 – From Charles Stross, a darkly comic space opera set in a solar system where humanity is extinct—but its robot heirs are very much alive. Play as an android navigating the remains of human civilization in a story equal parts noir, adventure, and existential absurdity.
