The Nefarious Hand

A psychological horror game.

This is a fun little game I wrote in Twine (https://twinery.org/) for the Writing for Games module in my Creative Writing Master’s Degree. It has many, many influences including The Wretched by Chris Bissette (https://loottheroom.itch.io/) which the reason you have to use a real deck of cards to play this text based adventure.

This is a straight drop of the game and I am sure there are many improvement that could be made, but I like the fact this is in it’s original state.

So, please read on, and if you dare, play The Nefarious Hand.
