Roll fast, eat bugs.
A new dicebuilding game is on the way, taking the roguelite framework and applying it in an interesting-looking way by having you place your dice in a grid for synergies and effects. Plus, you’re a cute frog that’s eating bugs. Big bonus in my opinion.
Die in the Dungeon is coming next year, and a free Prologue called Die in the Dungeon: Origins just released on steam as a demo to introduce you to the mechanics and gameplay of the cute little fighty dice-em-up. You progress through a series of random rooms and encounters, each one solved by playing attack, defend, and boost dice you’ve pulled from your bag and rolled to a grid.
Placement matters, and can give bonuses to adjacent dice or get bonuses based on items you collect—one I got, for example, gave bonuses to dice that were on the far ends of my grid with nothing adjacent to them. Another dice I got mirrored the dice on the opposite end from itself.
