Hand of Fate: Ordeals

Players take on the role of challengers summoned to a mysterious, reality-warping contest overseen by a master of the Game. Each player builds and customizes an adventure deck representing equipment, allies and encounters, then guides a hero through a sequence of ordeals across the kingdom. Gameplay alternates between deck‑building and tactical encounters: resolve card-driven events, fight monsters in combat scenes, and improve abilities and gear between trials. The design supports 1–4 players and offers both competitive and cooperative modes where players either race to become the Hero or work together to survive the challenges.
