Description
Hand of Fate 2 is a dungeon crawler set in a world of dark fantasy. Master a living boardgame where every stage of the adventure is drawn from a deck of legendary encounters chosen by you! Choose wisely - your opponent, the enigmatic Dealer, will pull no punches as he shapes you into the instrument of his revenge.

The table has changed, but the stakes remain the same: life or death!
  • A world transformed - 100 years have passed since the Dealer was usurped and the Game of Life and Death gained a new master.
  • 22 exciting new challenges that will push your deck-building skills to the limit - Hunt fiendish assassins, reunite star-crossed lovers or build up a fortress to withstand a raider assault!
  • Enlist the aid of all new companion characters - team up with them in battle, or have them bend the rules of the boardgame in your favor!
  • Hundreds of new encounters, artifacts and items to earn and upgrade.
  • Enhanced action-RPG combat - shred foes with quick dual-wielded daggers or brutalize them with heavy two-handed hammers. Build up your combo meter to unleash powerful special attacks!
  • Engage new foes united by all-new card suits - Cross swords with disciplined Imperial soldiers, purge corrupted mutants and fend off northern raiders.

Hand of Fate 2 is a satisfying sequel and a meatier dungeon crawler, but still somewhat hampered by limited combat.

8.8/10
While the combat may drag down the highs a bit, the core experience is a fantastic and unique trek through a card-created fantasy world

A much-improved sequel that blends disparate gameplay styles to create a compelling roguelike experience.

Hand of Fate 2

Repetitive graphics and play. No story to speak of. Impossible to succeed without a controller I think. The options allow selecting a controller, but it does not work on my Mac with my properly connected wireless controller that works with other games.

Crashes on Startup - Unplayable

The game might be actually good but it is completely unplayable. Crashes immediately on startup and no remedy in sight.

More of what you love.

Hand of Fate 2 takes all the aspects of the first game and expands on them while trying to improve on it's flaws. For more information, check out my vid on the game: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vHXVdzhVng4

Review for a half-rate Arkham clone.

Quite possibly the clunkiest Arkham Asylum clone I've ever played, and I've played many. The narrative and visuals are good and interesting, but the reliance on a combat system that feels worse than awful to play is not excused by those merits alone. It's ultimately not a good experience and reeks of Unity's typical failings in responsiveness. Avoid unless it's on sale and you absolutely cannot keep yourself from the intriguing setting and atmosphere.

Scum Developer

Sells OST on Origin, EGS, Steam, but not gog. I don't give a flying f if you don't listen to OSTs, stick to your shitty jungle music for all I care, this is for the few other people that actually have taste in music and care about parity. Developer pays 0 attention to gog, developer doesn't list their assets for their game here. = Second class citizen.
