Dice Keeper

A clear copy of the PS1 classic Devil Dice. Still in it's very early days and doesn't really capture a lot of the magic of the original Playstation title. Needs to be faster.

Dice Keeper is a minimalist puzzle experience that proves how a simple concept can become surprisingly engaging when built around strong core mechanics and smart pacing. Developed by Zanarka Studio, the game revolves around organizing and combining dice on a compact board in order to clear space and maintain momentum for as long as possible.
