ShadowHand is a unique, card-battling adventure game, coming to Steam for PC & Mac. Set in late 18th Century England, we follow the story of Lady Darkmoor, a beguiling young aristocrat who masquerades as the notorious highwaywoman, ShadowHand. Fleeing a crime scene and forced to act under the cover of darkness, Shadowhand will stop at nothing to retrieve an incriminating family jewel, and in doing so, safeguard a woman she holds dear. Combining an historical visual novel narrative with collectible card gaming, ShadowHand’s story spans 20 chapters of atmospheric locations including stormy coastlines, mysterious woods and gloomy manors. Featuring 180 levels of elegant and intense card action, players must dodge the law and brawl with outlaws in turn-based combat, gaining experience to customise their character and collect new weapons, gear and loot. It’s time to stand and deliver – your fortune and freedom are at stake! Read less

One of the more brazen skinner box games I've encountered lately. If you reset your hand a bunch of times in a row you can see the variable ratio reward schedule kick in and you'll suddenly rack up an enormous combo even if you haven't changed up your play at all.

Pros: -Gorgeous art. -Addictive gameplay despite its flaws.

Cons: -Too much RNG. Sometimes you just don't draw the card you need, while the opponent is making a 20 card combo. -Card powers are not properly balanced. A pistol is doing the same damage as a fist. Really??
