About This Game

Prologue episode to DARKHAND, an upcoming indie card battle RPG. Will you be able to make it out of the casino without paying off your debts?

Detailed Description

NOTE: The Demo will be updated regularly with new content and fixes until June of 2026.

The first builds will be HEAVILY limited and focused on the gameplay side, as I polish everything up and finish the story. A lot rests on the PROLOGUE's shoulders, and I would not want to rush the chapter, but I also need to open up the demo as soon as possible for public feedback. This is the best compromise I could reach.

Thank you for your patience.

DARKHAND is a story-driven RPG about desperation, vice, and the cost of second chances. Climb a hundred floors of artificial luxury and hidden horrors, while falling further and further down the hole of one-sided compromises and concessions.

In the short PROLOGUE episode, bond with Damian & Co as they try to outplay fate itself, using card battles inspired by traditional turn-based RPG mechanics. But in this casino, especially, nothing lasts forever, and trusting anyone is a bet you make against yourself every day.

This episode's scope is very small compared to the full game, but you will still get to experience small parts of the following:

  • Intricate plot: The story has no shortage of twists and mysteries, and it's up to you to piece everything together.

  • Card-based combat: A deceptively complex system where Spades attack, Hearts heal, Clubs defend, and Diamonds give chips, but your action bar forces you to plan each turn carefully. 

  • Not just characters: Your actions have consequences on the people around you. Shape relationships, unlock hidden content, and reveal multiple endings.

  • Unique soundtrack: Traverse through the game listening to over a hundred tracks of different styles and genres, landing anywhere from synthwave to chiptune, rock, or even orchestral.

  • Plenty of side content: Includes gambling minigames such as plinko and 1980's inspired videogames.

  • Stylized retro visuals: 16-bit era inspired art under a layer of (optional) dream-like effects.
