Overview
Dicey Dungeons is a deck-building rogue-lite turn-based RPG developed and digitally published by Distractionware for the PC, Mac, and Linux on August 13, 2019. It was later released for the Nintendo Switch on December 15, 2020, for the Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One on November 11, 2021, and for iOS and Android devices on July 7, 2022.
In Dicey Dungeons, players control an adventurer (who has been transformed into an anthropomorphic six-sided dice) as they attempt to make their way through a dungeon to win their freedom. The game is set in a fantasy game show theme, hosted by Lady Luck.
The gameplay combines elements of deck-building card games and roguelikes, with players attempting runs through their chosen dungeon (with defeat forcing them to redo the entire run) while building their repertoire of ability cards for their loadout. Players encounter each enemy in one-on-one turn-based battles, with players slotting each card in their loadout with a number of randomly-rolled six-sided dice.
