The Hand — About this game
The Hand combines collecting maze dots with choosing a rock, paper or scissors form. An encounter is won when the player’s sign defeats the opposing hand, so a pursuit can reverse as either hand changes shape. Clearing the dots moves the game onward, but approaching a rival requires checking its current sign rather than relying on its earlier appearance.
