Talk about value for money! The art design is pretty hit or miss for most players, personally it was fine even though I was sadly reminded of Broken Age by Double Fine. It’s that special brand of “just one more run”, when one ends up shockingly discovering that yes, thirty hours have been sank into the game. Nobody likes games that make it obvious how unfairly the player is treated, that is one design flaw to be avoided at all costs.Įach playthrough (or “run” if you want to get technical) is pretty quick, done in 15 minutes more or less, so the game does encourage quick matches sandwiched between more time consuming titles. There have been instances where it was abundantly clear the CPU adversary was receiving the exact dices needed each and every turn and that can get frustrating pretty quickly. It’s never made entirely clear if the rolls are actively pitted against you or just random. The game almost lost me a couple of times, having a bit of trouble being credible in its “depends on luck” principle. Of course, everything hangs on the randomness of the dice rolls, a design choice that at times threatens to break the title. Not all episodes are, luckily, required to be finished to reach the end game, it all depends on how quickly the player adapts to the different styles of play.Įverything works like an average deck building game: receive attack cards by leveling up or in shops, along with spells, defense items, etc. There’s six episodes per contestant, which basically means that Dicey Dungeons will probably take you a good 20+ hours to complete. The best design choice Cavanaugh made is in giving each one a unique play style, with its own weaknesses and strenghts.

As soon as the first run is completed, a new character will be unlocked, with a full selection of six different dices. Here, luck is not only blind but also plain cruel. Still, after all that fighiting, the only prize will be one go at “spin the wheel” which, of course, won’t make them win anything.

All the little dices are playing to take home their lifelong desire, but in order to do so they’ll have to survive five dungeon floors and a final boss. The cruel twist of fate is that all the heroes of the game have been turned into dices/die by Lady Luck, a tyrannical ruler who enslaves minions making ’em fight against anyone who dares set foot in the dungeon.
