About Hands Of Hell

Gamble for the fate of your soul in Hands of Hell, a Narrative Visual Novel Card Game through:

An RPG-Inspired Visual Novel Deckbuilder

Play as Mark Lachance, a (recently murdered) single father gambling his way through the eight Rings of Hell for a chance at absolution.

Wager your soul against the eight Demon Lords of Hell in games of Devil’s Tricks to win your freedom.

The Card Game Within The Game

Play Hell’s most popular card game: Devil’s Tricks – an homage to trick-taking classics like Bridge. Strategize and bet exactly how many tricks you can win. Discover and use Possessed Cards to shift the odds in your favor.

But beware, each Demon Lord will have their own Powers and Tricks to make sure the odds are always stacked against you.

Build Your Deck along with your Relationships

Encounter damned souls from each Ring whose fates hang in the balance of your Choices.

Make friends and allies. Play your cards right, and they may entrust you with their Souls, infusing your cards with their Power to help you turn the tides.

Navigate narrative events that will test the trust between you and your allies. Strengthen their Powers as you build stronger bonds, or maybe even fall in love.
