Deckbuilding Comes to Life In hand Of Fate!
An infinitely replayable series of quests - earn new cards, build your deck, then try to defeat it!
Beyond the thirteen gates at the end of the world, the game of life and death is played. Draw your cards, play your hand, and discover your fate. Hand of Fate is a hybrid roguelike/action-RPG/deck builder, in which the player builds a set of cards into a deck, which is then used to deal out the dungeon floors through which they adventure. Upon entering a combat, all of the cards the player has collected fly into their hands as fully modeled 3D assets, and combat begins.
Build your deck, enter the world of Hand of Fate, and prepare to face the Ace of Skulls.

If you are wondering if you should play this game when a sequel that does most things better exists, the answer is YES, the original Hand of Fate has its own strengths. First off, it's just more flavorful. HoF 2 uses a
Everything about this game speaks to me. The music, cards, aesthetic, and voice acting are a 10/10 for me. The only complaint i'd have is that the combat is a little clunky but it's not bad enough to rub me the wrong

Things I like: - Very strong narrative flow with the voice actor, the writing, the theme, and the animations / sound design. Playing the game with the narrator is a treat. - The UI is nice, comfortable with a controller
