Elevator Pitch
Hunter's Hand is a dark fantasy roguelike deckbuilder where every clue you uncover wakes the thing hunting you. Build a lethal deck, raise the Threat, and decide how much of an Ancient's attention you can survive.
Short Description
A turn-based tactical roguelike deckbuilder set in a dark fantasy world coming apart at the seams. Uncover clues to grow stronger, but every clue raises Threat, the world's awareness of you, and decides when the Ancient stops waiting. Build your deck across procedural maps, weather corrupting biomes, and hunt the things beneath.
Long Description
You are a hunter in a world slipping into ruin. The Ancients are waking, and every clue you find brings you closer to killing one, and closer to it noticing you.
Hunter's Hand is built around a single tension: Threat. Clues make you stronger, but they also raise the world's awareness of you. Push deep and you'll meet the Ancient with a deck that can win; push too far, too fast, and it comes looking early. Every run is a negotiation with that meter, there is no safe route, only a chosen one.
Combat is deliberate and combo-driven: the order you play your cards decides whether you live. The Oathwrought's Stance system rewards alternating attack and defence to reach Exalted, where everything hits twice as hard. Build your deck inside each run from 274 cards and 54 artefacts, across three characters with their own pools and mechanics, and three hand-crafted biomes, each with its own weather hazards, its own enemies, and its own Ancient waiting at the end, including The Black Goat.
Hunter's Hand is built solo in Godot, and is in Early Access from November 2026.
