Our take on A Hand With Many Fingers
The main sticking point is the archive search: a lead stays out of reach until its name, date, and location are all identified. Players who cannot keep those details straight may stall before they can move the investigation forward.
What is A Hand With Many Fingers?
Search a CIA archive for documents tied to a Cold War conspiracy, then use each discovery to pursue further leads.
The archive is organized by names, dates, and locations; finding a clue requires all three pieces of information. Details needed for research are hidden among the records. A corkboard and twine provide a way to arrange theories as the investigation develops. The game is played from a first-person perspective and builds a story of growing paranoia. Average playtime is around 1–2 hours. The vendor warns that play may cause nausea, particularly for people with a history of motion sickness, and suggests changing the field of view setting; ongoing nausea is a reason to stop playing.
