Dicey Dungeons

I really like this game, but man elimation round levels suck ass because of how much more rng it feels due to you being way weaker than all the enemies. And sometimes with some of the elimation round enemies, they will just combo you to death and you can't really do anything about it.

Still a great game with a extremely flawed mode that is REQUIRED to get to the final level of the game.

7/10

I played it a bit and got bored. Only recommending because it goes on sale for $3 sometimes and it was probably $3 worth of entertainment. Only buy if on sale

Cerebral, fun and as challenging as you need it to be. Soundtrack is a certified bop, ui clean, story is interesting and the achievements are straightforward. Bonus game modes are dope, each of the characters have their own gameplay pros and cons.

Great art style. Kinda lost its luster after a while for me though. Still a fun game to get on sale

An uncomplicated gameplay and endearing characters makes this game super effective as a dice-centric roguelike!

would be more fun if it wasn't sooo unfairly hard for no reason

I did not feel like I was making interesting decisions, neither in individual combats nor between combats.

This game is so god dang goofy and has an amazing soundtrack. I love every second of it.

Great casual dumb fun

Only issue is a big one - after mostly finishing the game, there was an error that caused me to lose all my progress. It's taken me a long while to try and recover from that, but that doesn't mean the game isn't fun. You just have to be... careful?

Firstly, I was not attract by the graphism of the game. And furthemore, the random of dice don't help.

But, I was wrong. There is a lot of replayability from the base of the gameplay with a set of variants (the different levels offer you to play with a different start stuff or changing the rules), and a set of heroes with their own way to play / Abilities.
I really enjoy the dice builder of the fool and the "blackjack" of the robot.

As if it was not enough, there is two free DLC included in the game, offering you a many other levels.

I highly recommand this game.

PS : The ennemies have sometime some amusing comment when you start or finish your fight against them.

Super underrated (almost criminally so). BUT! Super worth trying out. It's honestly a lot of fun and the writing is top notch.

This might be one of my favorite games of all time, and I don't even like roguelikes! Gameplay makes you feel like a genius when you pull something off, the mechanics work intuitively and as you'd expect, and between Chipzel and Marlowe Dobbe, the vibe is just THERE. Dicey Dungeons is gushing with charm and I've had nothing but good times with the product.

It's a fun game.

Dicey Dungeons is a super underrated game.

This game oozes charm, has a great OST, funny writing, and some tight mechanics, along with some cool and unique status effects. Many characters to choose from with varying complexities, and each of them has some optional variations.

One underrated aspect is that the enemy AI always plays as optimally as possible. It sounds daunting, but it's cleverly balanced by their unique movesets, telegraphed actions, and enemy weaknesses you can counter.

Did I mention that it had two free DLC updates that are completely free? Because it does have that much soul put into it.

The best dice-based game out there, but I just can’t clear the Elimination Round as the Thief, even though I like his mechanics the most.

Despite being sold on this being a relatively short roguelike, the depth of the mechanics and the different classes is sooo impressive... the 'more difficult' classes just get progressively more busted and fun to play! [except Inventor. Being forced to switch equipment drove me crazy... but it was still a good challenge]

The road to beating all episodes was more challenging (and far longer) than I thought it would be when I brute forced the first few. There's no shortage of things to try, so even if you're just looking for a cute deck building game, you'll be pleasantly surprised! - although, if you try to freeze everything like I did, I won't blame you :P

A short, fun game with funny characters, a charming artstyle and jazzy chiptunes. The challenges you unlock as you progress keep things fresh, but overall it doesn't have as much depth and replayability as other roguelikes. Not that it needs to!

Cozy roguelite dungeoncrawling. Just enough tactics with the various dice abilities, plus the different strategies of each character, to keep the gameplay loop engaging. Nice soundtrack too!

God tier steam deck game.

good friends onlyt

so nice i bought it twice (got it for mobile to play it outside)

The game is very fun and unique in its own way but there's major features that make it unfair for a Rogue like

1. Major lack of information in the game I was about to finish the final episode of warrior, I decided to choose the poison doesn't get removed every turn for a rule and the boss I get is drake he almost immediately apply's poison onto me and there's nothing I can do from there.

2. Utterly useless cards that have no use at all in the entire characters ability or entirely useless in the entire game??? (Seriously who made these awful idea's for cards?)

3. Unfair rolls, without luck you can't get good rolls which require RNG, without good cards that reroll dice rolls you can't get good rolls and your stuck in a loop and screwed if you don't have warrior that rerolls dices as his passive ability.

4. Unfair episodes, yeah one episode on warrior where you get 14 max hp late game doesn't seem very fair to me...

5. there's absolutely no way to mitigate RNG

Just play slay the spire it's better at least the RNG can be mitigated : )

Just a solid roguelike, nothing necessarily bad, nothing necessarily outstanding.

Boring runs that lack strategic depth or variety in favor of obnoxious dice roll RNG.

Too much RNG with not enough ways to mitigate it. Obviously it's a game about rolling dice but the game often feels it is not tuned quite right. For example, there are some enemies that if they get good rolls they can kill you in a few turns, especially on the challenge levels. There is equipment you can use to reduce the randomness, but honestly the equipment in the game is not very powerful and it's quite rare to find a really strong synergy. Even if you do manage to build a strong synergy it's possible that the final boss will counter your build. There are also some challenges where if you get unlucky you can die on level 2 or even level 1 despite playing optimally.

Although I have played the game for quite a long time, it leaves a bad taste in the mouth, and I can't recommend it at the current asking price considering all the other games in this genre it is competing with at this price point.

This game is so addicting. 11/10 would play again.

Fun game! Lots of skill involved.

fun idea, interesting character clesses and weapons but it got boring after a few hours for me personally, come back to it once in a while!

game is so good and the music is ICONIC one of the best ost's of all time

challenging but fun

An excellent game, 10/10, no notes

Decided to give this game another chance after a while, immediately ran into 2 gameplay bugs (options disappearing at the start of battle and gear inexplicably being weakened permanently after a battle).

Even without those issues, there's so many better roguelike card battlers with classes to choose from.
I know it's technically a dice battler but cmon. I'd recommend

Circadian Dice - If you want specifically a dice battler
Griftlands - Best card battler out rn IMO (aside from Slay the Spire)

fun game, very interesting TTRPG interpretation.

Great first impression, before turning into an rng simulator after 10 hours.

You'll probably like Dicey Dungeons if (but not only if!): You enjoyed the old iPhone game Dream Quest, and want a modernized take with a less-ugly presentation(!), dice-rolling mechanics, better balance, and more replayability.

game is charming, fun, and does provide some decently deep strategy decisions.
UI is a bit slow to use imo, and there's some action speed stuff i don't really like where going too fast could screw you over (or be exploited for gains)

fun deck building rng game
the game WILL exploit flaws in your build so make sure you can adapt

peak

The game was good while you use the warrior for the first dungeon. Then you get the thief, and its RIDICULOUS after that, the thief has the worst RNG no matter what build you use, so be prepared to lose alot and its only your second character. I don't get why they made it so frustratingly difficult on your SECOND CHARACTER WITH THE FIRST EPISODE. I've tried my best to beat episode 1 with the thief and died 5 total times before I gave up and moved on to a better game.

A game that keeps on giving in terms of unique challenges. It's so fun to mess around in and play just one more game.

Ok, first of all, I love this game. I was instantly hooked. I purchased a copy for both my phone and steam AND I told my mom about it. She also loves it. I just want to be clear that, hands down, I like this game and you should definitely buy it. However, i have one large complaint.

I am so furious right now that I almost want a refund. I think it is a despicable act to make a character or playthrough so incredibly difficult as to render that character unplayable. If I had known at the start that losing 5 + attempts with one character (basically wasting my time) was an actual option I would not have bought the game. It's like dangling a carrot.

Of course challenge is necessary and everyone enjoys a difficult scenario from time to time. But deliberately creating a no-win scenario in a game that I payed for? Inconceivable. I literally cannot progress in a game I PAYED FOR because the witch is a waste of time.

Finally, I realize that the witch is a "higher" difficulty. But I've discovered that it is not that the challenge has increased. It is simply that the character is DEFINITELY not going to make it to the boss ever. Which feels like false advertising,

One of the most criminally underrated roguelikes of all time—if you enjoyed games like Slay the Spire or Balatro, you should give this one a try as well.

Die = 1, singular noun
Dice = 2+, plural noun

funny math rocks go click clack

Fun roguelike with great art and vibe. One of Terry Cavanagh's many gems.

Deceptively simple at first, but tons of content and different types of challenges.
And an amazing soundtrack. Sometimes I just wait in battle to keep the music going.

Dicey Dungeons has a criminally underrated soundtrack that alone is responsible for making me want to play it.

Fun game, too. It does rely quite heavily on the RNG side, but some classes rely on it less so than others. Runs don't take very long to complete as well, which is great.

This is THE introductory rougelite deckbuilder in my eyes, it inspired me to get into both genres more deeply, and I had a blast playing! Such a fun combat system

Super fun deckbuilding roguelike with lots of options for variation between runs
