Dicefolk is a cracking monster battling Roguelike, with seriously clever combat unlike anything else I’ve ever played. The different strategies you can implement to make a synergistic team of destruction always feel sensational, and there’s enough content for you to be playing it for the rest of the year. It’s hard to make time for games given how busy 2024 is already, but Dicefolk is a game you need to fit into your schedule.

Dicefolk junta todo lo que me gusta de los RPG. Colección de monstruos, construcción de equipos en torno a la sinergia entre sus miembros, secuenciación... Si cualquiera de estos elementos os llama la atención, os merecéis probar este juego.

Dicefolk is an intriguing take on the roguelike that gives you an unprecedented level of control over everything, and still makes you sweat in battle. It's cute, the replayability is very high, and it's got some fun progression unlocks as well. Definitely grab it if you're a turn-based roguelike person.

In short, Dicefolk stands out in an otherwise stale and saturated genre by having one of the most addictive combat systems I’ve seen in a long time. Shockingly enough, that was what I liked the most about it, and not the monster collecting elements. Those were there, and worked wonders, but were quite minute at the end of the day. With a lot of content and reasons to replay each map multiple times, this game won me over after expecting nothing from it. Don’t ignore this one. It might be yet another turn-based roguelite, but this one’s got more care put into it than literally dozens upon dozens of competitors.

Dicefolk è un roguelite che dà il potere sulla casualità. Lanciamo i dadi, analizziamo le mosse a disposizione e scegliamo cosa farà non solo la nostra squadra, ma anche quella avversaria. Giocando da entrambi i lati della barricata possiamo creare strategie più elaborate e divertenti da mettere in campo, limitando il più possibile l'incidere del fato sulle nostre azioni. Grazie a una campagna principale non complessa e una modalità aggiuntiva che aumenta il tasso di difficoltà, Dicefolk risulta adeguato sia per chi vuole essere messo alla prova, ma anche per chi invece preferisce non giocare decine di ore senza ottenere una singola vittoria (parliamo di te Slay the Spire). Il design delle creature non è molto originale e, come spesso accade, la trama è più un contorno, ma in ogni caso non possiamo non consigliare Dicefolk agli amanti del genere.

Dicefolk est un jeu vraiment intéressant et qui ne paye pas de mine. Le concept est parfaitement maitrisé et il dispose d’une très grande variété en matière de stratégie. La durée de vie est excellente et on ne rejouera jamais 2 fois la même partie. Je vous le conseille très fortement!

Dicefolk es un juego que se vuelve adictivo con cada pasada. Tratar de encontrar el equipo de quimeras, items, stats, perfecto, o con una gran sinergia te va a mantener pegado al juego por un buen rato. Así que si eres amante de los roguelite este tiene bastantes elementos novedosos y atractivos como para que no lo dejes pasar por alto.

As a fan of the rogue-like and monster catcher genres, Dicefolk is a treat. But while I love the design and enjoy the overall gameplay, the challenge could desperately use some retuning. But if you’re a glutton for punishment and don’t mind a ton of grinding, in that case, I can wholeheartedly recommend this challenging hybrid.

Con simpáticos diseños, poca narrativa pero muchos secretos por descubrir, Dicefolk es una propuesta independiente que no puedo dejar de recomendar para los amantes del género roguelike por turnos. La combinación entre suerte, estrategia y preparación, hacen de esto una experiencia veloz para disfrutar en cualquier momento del día.

With fun turn-based combat, enough strategy development and random elements outside of combat, and a decent primary objective, Dicefolk refines an existing genre to make something both unique and recognizable. Dicefolk isn’t just for genre fans, it’s a very enjoyable game all around, especially if you dig turn-based combat.

Overall, Dicefolk has put significant effort into creating something unique by being hand-drawn and utilising dice-rolling combat. With replayability and strategy at heart with a vast number of items and beasts to tame this game will likely be a hit, as it drew me in for hours. Whether you want to play casually or like a pro, there is a spot for everyone in this fascinating title. I can’t wait to see where this game goes. May the dice be in your favour!

Dicefolk gets a lot right, and the developers clearly thought hard about how to take a fundamentally dice-based game, and make something that players could enjoy as a tactical roguelike, where randomness does not result in frustrating failures. However, Dicefolk is, ultimately, a pastiche with very little of its own creative identity, and I do think this is going to limit its audience to only the most hardcore Slay the Spire fans. But, then again, it’s not my job to worry about the commercial viability of a game. For those who simply cannot get enough of roguelikes, Dicefolk is yet another one for you to play.

Even though its overarching story world could be fleshed out further, Dicefolk offers a refreshing take on the roguelike formula. Thanks to its combat mechanics, dice system, and variety of chimeras and equipment, gameplay is varied and complex while still being accessible to newcomers. Added to this, the feature of customising different dice allows players to tailor their dice according to their personal tastes and playstyle, making Dicefolk a good fit for both casual and more hard-core roguelike fans.

Dicefolk has truly amazing combat that makes great use of its rotation and dice mechanics, and it's bolstered by a ton of impressive designs in the Chimeras, each packing their own skills that are fun to experiment with as you craft your dream team and playstyle. Unfortunately, the lack of any interesting story hinders the experience and can easily leave you wanting more. Still, as long as you desire a unique spin on the traditional creature-collecting formula and the battles associated with it, Dicefolk can still be worth checking out, even if the odds of you enjoying the game for longer periods may boil down to a dice roll.

As a result, there’s always something that’ll have you excited to keep exploring and to see what comes next, or how you can approach battles slightly differently for a more positive outcome. All in, this makes for a satisfying, albeit occasionally repetitive, experience.
