Fight first-person rock-paper-scissors style duels in the deck-builder Handmancers

Handmancers looks like a fun spin on deck-builders with the first-person view and the rock-paper-scissors style counter system. With simple accessible rules where each sign counters another, this forms the core of each encounter to shape all deck-building and battling.

With a demo available (Native Linux), you can get a slice of the action before the release. More about it: "Powerful plays tire your fingers. Heavy moves raise cramps that limit options until you recover, turning every play into a tradeoff: burst the boss down now, or conserve for a longer fight. Corruption creeps across the map, tempting you with potent rewards while it twists the dangers you face. Choose artifacts, shape your hand, and push deeper into the map where the rules stay simple, but the choices never are".

The developers recently revealed a March 9th date for Early Access. They also have a new trailer:

Game Highlights:

• Rock, Paper, Scissor Combat. Simple rules, where each Sign counters another, forming the core of every encounter and shaping all deck and strategy decisions.
• First Person Deckbuilder Roguelike. Experience the tactical depth of a deckbuilder as a duelist, not a person slamming cards on the table.
• Customize Your Hand. Each card can have up to three modifiers. Combine it right and turn your gestures into nukes.
• Play in Style. Pick your faction and solidify your play style: deliver heavy damage with Scissors, play defensively with Rock or stuck buffs with Paper.
• Reach Into Corruption. Corruption disrupts the game, bringing the fourth unbeatable element to the table. This power comes with a hefty price though.
