Dungeon Degenerates: Hand of Doom

A dark fantasy sandbox set in the decaying Eastern Provinces of the Würstreich where escaped criminal adventurers take on unsavory missions across four distinct regions. Players explore an open map with rising danger levels and a looming Hand of Doom that brings escalating evil magic, forcing missions to be completed before the threat descends. Play is cooperative but not compulsory: parties can form or split up at will, choose routes and pace, and carry experience and items between missions in a campaign-style progression. Encounters present multiple interaction options (avoidance as well as combat), and streamlined tactical combat uses single rolls with standard six-sided dice while character customization gains new skills over time.
