Joshua Briggs is known for his iconic works in the gaming industry and he releases a look at the new Sleight of Hand game with RiffRaff Games. The game is another mystery addition under Brigg's belt and it is described as a "third-person card-slinging occult noir stealth sim."
It is a game that follows a character named Lady Luck, who was previously an occult detective who is working to track down and defeat her former coven. The noir character goes to Steeple City with a cursed deck -- she lost her left hand the last time that she came in contact with her fellow witches. The deck features cards that each have a unique ability including the Hex card, which holds onto a hidden enemy.
