I have never played or seen another game like hand of fate 2, this game is very cleverly designed and fills a niche I did not know existed. It's very hard to describe what makes this game so special, but there is just something about it that is so captivating. I think it's how it does it's atmosphere; the art, audio design, characters and music all build towards a feeling that makes the game feel so real. It has a great mix or narrative, puzzle solving, and combat (which is probably the weakest of the 3 pillars but fun nonetheless). I'd recommend giving it a shot at least, if you don't like it in the first 2 hours, you can always refund it.

An extremely unique kind of game combining tabletop strategy with decision making and rpg-action fight sequences where skill can carry (seriously, you can defeat the most hardcore encounters with starting gear if you're not a noob).

When I started playing the game I was curiousm but I felt it was still "light" on it´s core gameplay... initially. However, I have to say that I got hooked to finish it, and did it over a long time (the way I enjoy gaming :) ) Interesting formula of mixed mini-games that are triggered by event cards. Cards are hidden in the board, and you reveal them one by one and solving each event before continue. You navigate the board game of cards with a token/avatar of you, and solve those events with certain decisions or by winning/loosing the mini-games. Your character relies on it´s health, food and money to survive each chapter and try to solve each one in different ways. The objectives are different per chapter. There is a preparation phase where you select a companion, weapons, possible events to encounter and some specific resources. By solving each chapter you unlock further weapons, events, armor, items and more resources that can be used further on other chapters. The minigames may include combat, dices, a pendulum to stop, traps, card tricks, etc They are not very deep on their own, but they have interesting variations. Items make important differences when facing those mini-games to avoid falling into "pure luck" outcomes. The entire game is not very deep in complexity and the advantage of that is that you get it how to play early. The only downside that I can mention is that even if prepared with the adequate set of items/encounters you will fail sometimes against pure luck, but in the end is not that critical as you can recover over other encounters too. The game increases difficulty by adding more limitations, curses, and punishing you in hard ways to make you fail at some point. For example the combat is not difficult to understand, but the game will put you many times with some stronger enemies in situations that maybe you are already hurt after some previous bad encounters. So it is a struggle many times, but well planned you can balance things much better. Therefore you may end up re-starting the chapters choosing better options, is ok. The game is made in unity and works perfect in VR with mods (VorpX works wonders). I played sometimes in normal 2D and sometimes in glorious 3D stereo from VR, it looks great !! it was fun 8.5/10
