"Back in 1982, British writers Steve Jackson and Ian Livingstone published the then ground-breaking Fighting Fantasy book series. These were single-player role-playing games where ‘you become the hero’ – basically consisting of being given choices at certain stages which would change the direction and outcome of the story.
It was coupled with dice-rolling – used for fighting a variety of monsters as well as lending an element of randomness to various events that would occur.
Fast forward to over thirty years later, and this format has been ever-so-slightly tweaked and is back with a vengeance in the form of Hand of Fate."
Richard writes: "Hand of Fate is still a wonderful reinvention of the collectable card game genre, seamlessly mixing action-RPG dungeon crawling with addictive deck building mechanics to create a truly unique experience."
Defiant Development, the Aussie team behind the phenomenal Hand of Fate series, has announced that their studio will cease production and close down
