Let the game-making begin! From now until the 15th of October, we'll be holding a modding contest on the Steam Workshop to showcase our new Briarfolk faction! From deep within the Aeldwen Forest, they come - but are they friend or foe? We want you to tell us!

The contest is open to mod-makers of all levels of experience, and to mods of all sizes: single encounter, encounter chain, companion, challenge - it's up to you to wow us with your Briarfolk adventure!

And what will you be competing for? The winning modmaker will receive a copy of the Kickstarter-exclusive special edition of Hand of Fate: Ordeals, signed by the team at Defiant. This limited item is exclusive to backers - it won't be available as a retail item, and it comes packed with additional game modes and content. You don't want to miss your chance to own this beautiful collector's item.



Eligible mods will need to be uploaded to the Steam Workshop between the 17th of September and the 15th of October and include the words Briarfolk Community Mod Contest in the Workshop description. We'll be providing modding tips and highlighting some of our favorite mods over the course of the competition on the forums and our Discord channel. Work has also begun on establishing a modding wiki, which will make it a little easier to find the exact bit of editor-related info you're looking for. The HoF2 Modding Wiki can be found here.

To help players find and activate mods in-game, we've taken the opportunity to spruce up the in-game modding UI. You'll now be able to see additional mod details as well as view a carousel of content highlighted by the dev team.

So what are you waiting for? It's time to grab a copy of the HoF2 SDK and leave your mark on the Game of Life and Death!
