About

Rogue's Hand

Read full description

Rogue's Hand is a compact solo card crawler built around a standard deck and difficult tactical choices. Enter rooms of four cards. Defeat monsters, equip weapons, drink potions, and decide when to flee. Resolve three cards from each room; the final card carries forward with added Momentum. Choose from four distinct classes: • Warrior — bypass a weapon restriction when it matters most. • Mage — transmute potions into weapons or weapons into healing. • Cleric — exorcise a dangerous monster and replace it with a new card. • Rogue — make a tactical retreat after engaging part of a room. Plan around weapon degradation, limited healing, class abilities, and an ever-shrinking deck. Clear every card to win. Reach zero health and the run ends. Features: • Four playable classes • Fast, turn-based solo runs • Player statistics with overall and per-class results • Contextual tutorial tips, replayable from How to Play • No advertisements • No in-app purchases • Playable offline • Light and Dark Mode • VoiceOver support Statistics track completed runs, victories, win rate, best scores, winning streaks and your most-played class. Earlier runs are not reconstructed. One deck. Four classes. Every card is a decision.
