Developed by Ultra Piggy Studio, DICEOMANCER, a card-based roguelike, officially launches today on Steam, October 10, 2024. To celebrate its release, the game will be available at a 10% discount during its first week. Published by Gamirror Games, the team behind Dyson Sphere Program, Volcano Princess, and Firework, DICEOMANCER brings a fresh and innovative twist to the card game genre.
At first glance, DICEOMANCER may seem like another deck-building roguelike, where players progress through nodes, engage in combat, encounter events, and upgrade their cards. Players must carefully manage their mana to play cards and counter enemy moves. But if DICEOMANCER were just another card game, it might have been called "CARDOMANCER."
What sets DICEOMANCER apart is its unique dice mechanic, which allows players to alter in-game numbers. For example, a card that deals "1 damage" can be boosted to deal "6 damage" by rolling a six-sided die. Drawing "1 card" can become drawing "6 cards," and gaining "1 strength" might turn into gaining "6 strength." These possibilities open up countless strategies for upgrading your deck's power.
But it doesn’t stop there. Dice in DICEOMANCER affect almost every number in the game. Does an enemy have 30 health? Roll a die to change it. Only have 1 coin? Use a ten-sided die to increase your wealth. Low on energy with just 4 points? Expand your energy limit with a roll. However, with great power comes great risk. The outcomes are random, and unlucky rolls can result in unintended consequences, so careful planning and strategy are key to success.
In addition to its dynamic dice mechanics, DICEOMANCER is distinguished by its whimsical and creative card designs. With over 500 cards, many featuring numerical themes, players will encounter Easter eggs and surprises that add charm and humor to the experience.
DICEOMANCER is out now! Step into the shoes of a hero who only wants to go fishing, yet accidentally ends up saving the world. But don’t forget—the true objective of the game is to go fishing!
