Hand of Fate

White Council Rolled Back
Looks like those pesky Mages get in everywhere!

The latest update introduced a bug - sorry for anyone who found themselves facing nothing but White Council V cards!

We've now rolled the build back, and we'll reupload the White Council tomorrow, this time without the Mages getting their tricks in the mix.

Sorry about that!

The White Council update is here!


The White Council has begun to increase its reach, demanding taxes and tariffs from the neighbouring towns. It is up to you to discover why, and in the process uncover the secrets of the Mages.

Winters Hunt update is here!


Christmas holidays are fast approaching so to celebrate we will be releasing free content in the coming weeks.

The first of four instalments is Winters Hunt.

The myth of the White Minotaur may have some truth to it.

This beast is master of both strength and magic but you are not the only person in this hunt.

Heed the Song of the White Minotaur (this will be in your deck after the update) to begin your adventure.

Murder At Sea Update has arrived!
Thanks for playing Hand of Fate! We've just released a new, completely free update for all players.

Our latest update, Murder At Sea, adds a whole new questline to Hand of Fate.

New cards, new items, and a whole new boss await you! Discover the evil that lurks at sea, infiltrate pirates, and discover the shocking secrets of the Lizardmen.

To begin your new adventure, visit the Land Locked Lubber (which will be in your deck after the update) and speak to the bartender there.

Unleash the Wildcards!
Our first DLC has just launched - now is your chance to explore all the different Fates, and new ways to play!

Each Fate has its own custom chain of encounters, and its own potential rewards, along with new Achievements.

Will you take on the challenge the Alchemist, and be bound by Iron Hunger? Take the Fate of the Monk, and his Holy Quest? Be struck by the Curse of the Lion Prince?

This DLC includes :

- 9 new Fates for players : Shadow Agent, Iron Hunger, Nomad, Curse of the Lion Prince, Explorer's Gift, Merchant's Guard, Hoarder's Desire, Monk, Soldier's Training.
- 9 new Encounter chains.
- 9 new Items

Introducing new playable Fates!
We've just launched our latest update to support our first DLC, Wildcards. In addition to unlocking the power to select your Fate and change the way the game plays, we've updated the game to support Unity 5 - which means it's faster and better looking.

All players will have access to 3 Fates - which allow you to play the game in easy, normal, or hard difficulty. In addition, the DLC adds 9 more - each with their own Encounters, Items, and unique rule changes.
