Dice Assassin

I've only been playing for two days, and thus far I really love the gameplay and concept of this game. However, I have a couple peeves already that make the game not as enjoyable as I think it should be. 1) The main problem I had just happened to me on my second day of gameplay on my SteamDeck, and it's a big one. I was on my most successful run yet, I know the last I had looked at the level number it said 35, so I was probably around room 40 when suddenly a black screen with a white error window-box popped up and my only options were "COPY", "CLEAR", and "ABORT". Sadly, all I was able to do was to abort my game and when I reopened it, the new weapon card I had purchased during my run was not showing in my collection anymore. That made me almost want to give up on the whole game, because if that can happen at any time, what is the point of playing at all if my progress might not be saved? My suggestion to the developers is this: PLEASE MAKE THE GAME SAVE PROGRESS AFTER EACH ROOM (at least), or, even better, AFTER EACH MOVE!! It makes absolutely no sense in this day and age that you cannot incorporate mid-game saves into this game so players can stop and return to their game right …

Feels unfinished; more of a concept of a game than a full fun experience. Very little variety, bugs, poor UI, and terrible clarity on what things do (even with the genre in mind). Read the other reviews and look at the forum. This game is also abandoned by its dev(s).

Fun roguelike, I would love to see a more fleshed out longer version. You do have to use strategery in your movements you can't just move around randomly and expect to win like I see in a lot of these reviews.

Doesn't fully support english, starts in a different language, and is extremely easy. My first run beat two bosses and I only lost to a knowledge check the stage before boss 3. The bosses are super easy to cheese too.

Dice Assassin is a compact turn-based strategy title that blends board-game logic, card-driven actions, and the inherent unpredictability of dice into a tightly focused tactical experience. Developed and published by Afil Games, the game presents itself as a series of small but demanding combat puzzles, where success depends on how well players can adapt their plans to chance while maintaining precise positioning on a grid-based battlefield. Rather than offering sprawling maps or long narrative arcs, it concentrates on moment-to-moment decision-making, making every turn feel deliberate and consequential. At the heart of the gameplay is a system that revolves around automatic dice rolls at the start of each turn. These rolls determine the numerical values that influence movement ranges, attack power, or how certain action cards can be used. Instead of allowing players full control over their options, Dice Assassin forces them to work within the constraints provided by chance. This creates a constant tension between planning and improvisation, as players must evaluate the board state and decide how best to convert imperfect rolls into effective actions. The dice never feel purely de…

Fun concept, not normal game start to boot because unfriendly default language setting except you can understand portuguese, would love to play more but it lacks for a better button system mapping and an understanding of a better explaination of the game. I will come back if the game is at a better state and change the review appropriately. But it seems the game was given without care
