The Demon’s Hand is a roguelike card mini-game in LoL and it’s playable NOW!
The next League of Legends mini-game is a Noxus-themed roguelike card game titled The Demon's Hand. Like the most recently released bullet-hell LoL minigame Swarm, The Demon's Hand will be playable right inside of the League of Legends client. Screenshot via Riot Games At a glance, The Demon's Hand looks inspired by recent popular roguelike card games like Inscryption and Balatro. Riot has dubbed The Demon's Hand a Noxus-themed seasonal strategic turn-based card battler in which players will discover, unlock, and equip powerful Sigils to strengthen their attacks and form new strategies. For some backstory, Riot explains that after being freed from imprisonment by Leblanc, Atakhan goes on a bloodthirsty rampage around Runeterra before stumbling across a strange and unknown land where he spots a single lone man. The place feels out of time yet the man feels somehow familiar. Atakhan joins him at a table, compelled by a force it doesn't understand. Serious Inscryption vibes, eh? In The Demon's Hand, players start each game with a set amount of health based on how far they've progressed in the overall mini-game. Each round you draw 8 cards from a deck of 52 to assemble different levels of attacks to deal damage to your opponent's cards. You can also discard three times each round, and up to five cards each time. You then deal damage based on your various attack values and card combinations. At the end of each battle you are awarded currency that you can then spend on Sigils that augment various aspects of the game. The rounds will continue until they end in victory or defeat. There are several rewards for participating in The Demon's Hand seasonal mini-game by completing limited-time missions. Rewards include an emote, a couple of Icon's, a title, and some Battle Pass experience. Those interested in checking out The Demon's Hand can do so now by updating to the latest version of League of Legends. No additional downloads are needed, as you'll be able to play The Demon's Hand right inside the LoL client.
