After his victory over the enigmatic and seemingly all-powerful Dealer, Kallas (the original HoF‘s protagonist) has found himself to be the new master of the Game of Life and Death, and has used his newly acquired power to sew corruption, despair, and death across the land. Hand of Fate 2‘s story takes place approximately 100 years after that of the original Hand of Fate. And it also stands as a great example for how much potential the (admittedly niche) single-player tabletop sub-genre has. Hand of Fate 2 hasn’t entirely “mastered” that concept either, but it’s certainly safe to say that it’s been one of the best attempts that I’ve ever had the pleasure of encountering.

Especially when attempting to craft this experience for, rather than the usual handful of living, breathing, and often times obnoxious (in the best possible way) people, a lone player in a world otherwise full of NPCs. It’s also an experience that, try though it might, the video game industry can’t quite seem to replicate with 100% accuracy. Letting yourself get sucked into a game ruled primarily by imagination, an oft-brutal Dungeon Master, and your ability to act like a Lawful-Evil half-Elf/half-Orc (or whatever weird amalgamation of a character that you decided to go with) is, under the right conditions, an incredible and fun experience. My experience with the iconic tabletop role-playing series Dungeons & Dragons, despite being somewhat limited, has been a very positive one overall.
