Hand of Fate for PC

So I have never played a tabletop RPG, and they don't seem all that appealing to me, but I enjoyed what I assume is a super streamlined, video game version of one in this, not that I care for the extremely fluky RNG factors. I think my favorite aspect was the process of completing and uncovering more encounter cards.

I would always customize my deck, no matter how poorly constructed it may have been, to maximize my chances of gaining more tokens to unlock future encounters. It didn't seem to affect much in the long run as I was breezing through the the first half of the game. Then I finally died and while deaths went from rare to simply uncommon, it was never too much, and I could still continue what I enjoyed most. Then I hit an absolute wall in the penultimate, for a lack of a better word, chapter. I had to completely change everything, and after a few more deaths, I took care of business.

I thought everything was starting out great in the final chapter as I made it to the final boss fight on my first attempt, but I was slaughtered in the middle of it. I kept tweaking things, letting them assemble a recommended deck, and changing up how I approached playing the game. It didn't matter as I couldn't come close to reaching the point that I did in my first run. I had all but given up hope that I would beat this, but I randomly booted up this game after a boss fight in another game took a lot out of me.

I eventually made it to the final boss fight, but once I reached the part I died at in my previous best attempt, Plague bosses for those who have played it, things started to fall apart as they health fell to the single digits. Then after receiving what I thought was the finishing blow to my run, I saw that I was still standing, so I fought some more. Then I was sure I was going to die again, but then it didn't happen and continued to fight some more. I finally realized that the combination of curses and equipment that I had must have made me invincible. I was still so incredulous, so I fought like I could still actually fail for the remainder of the fight, and I ultimately claimed victory. I feel bad for anyone who was forced to beat that fight legitimately because man that is one brutal final boss fight.
