Game studio and digital products
An independent studio in Tallinn, Estonia. We make games and apps for phones, tablets and PCs, and explore new software ideas of our own.
Billiards, table football, an outdoor walking game and Italian card games for Android, iOS and Windows. In most you play against the computer, and in several also online against other people.
Italian billiards, with physics as close to the real table as we can make them. Also online.
Table football played with a flick of the finger, close to the FISTF rules. The gameplay is still being tuned.
A game you play by walking: find the chickens in the streets and parks around you, collect their eggs and grow your farm.
The classic Italian trick-taking game for four players in two teams, with the traditional declarations.
Five players, and a partner who stays secret until the cards give them away. Against the computer or online.
Also called Calabresella: three players, twelve cards each, a bidding round and a called card.
Alongside the games we publish apps. For now there is one, for playing and learning the piano.
Music · Android, iOS and macOS
Grand Piano StudioPlay your piano and watch it become sheet music. Connect a digital piano or MIDI keyboard, or play on the screen, and both hands appear on the grand staff, note by note.
Alongside the games and apps we develop ideas of our own for new software, in any field where we see something worth building. Here are two examples, both in active development and not yet released. For each project we decide whether to release it as open source.
Industrial automation · in development
A real-time operating system that turns a standard PC into a machine controller. It starts straight from the PC's firmware, with no Windows or Linux underneath, runs the control program every millisecond on processor cores of its own, and is built to talk to the machine's sensors and actuators over the main industrial network standards.
Simulation · in development
A model of a whole city's traffic, built entirely from open data: the road network, population statistics, the locations of workplaces, schools and shops, and the public transport timetable. The trips are synthetic, generated by the model rather than taken from anyone's movements. Every car, bus and tram is simulated individually and shown live in a 3D city, with the traffic lights, the queues and the reason each vehicle is standing still. Tallinn is the first city.
Almian Software is an independent studio based in Tallinn, Estonia. Our first game came out in 2015. Since then we have published billiards, table football and Italian card games for Android, iOS and Windows, built with Unity, several of them with online multiplayer and rankings. The latest, Chickens Saga, is played outdoors, by walking. Alongside them we publish Grand Piano Studio, which writes sheet music as you play the piano.
In 2026 the studio became a company, Almian Software OÜ, which publishes the games and runs the research projects above.
