Summary
Fighting against fortune would be a lot easier if you weren't a walking dice.
Chipzel, and Marlowe Dobbe, you'll fight monsters, find better loot, level up your heroes, and maybe even take down the Goddess of Fortune, Lady Luck herself. Balance your carefully planned strategies against the unknown of a dice roll.

It's fun and relaxing at first but then it's just difficult to beat the final boss if you don't calculate the character level up carefully. Not on PC Game Pass anymore.

I did enjoy dicey dungeons, but it got me bored and frustrated earlier than slay the spire. Ultimately theres a bit too much RNG with a few characters and that annoyed me.

Really cool ascetics and overall design. For the first few runs I was really drawn in, the different dice mechanics felt fresh, until about 4-5 runs into the game. That’s when I kind of realized for the next 5 runs the core problem I have with this game.
Dicey Dungeons doesn’t give the player all that much agency. You get to pick your attacks/spells throughout the game, and you get to pick your routes in world map, but how to optimally do that is rather straightforward. There were very few times I felt a difficult choice between two options. You would think with dice there would be some kind of tension to it but it lacked any.
In some board games like Dice Throne you are given a bunch of different attacks and multiple chances to roll your dice to achieve a desired result. There is tension, agency, but also luck and chances to be calculated. You would think this might also apply to Dicey Dungeons, but it lacks in all those areas.
It is above average though. For someone that might be making their entrance into dice games like this, I might consider it a good entry point. For anyone that’s played say, Slay the Spire or something similar, it will be short lived.

Cute asthetic and interesting strategy gameplay based on dice.
Overall I have to say though it started to feel repetetive and not really exciting enough to keep me playing. I believe that is partially because the game mechanics are a bit restrictive and not to versatile as soon as you get the hang of it. The different characters you can play affect the game mechanics heavily, but non of them felt interesting enough for me. But maybe I will pick it up again sometime in the future. For people who like dice games in general this would be a great casual experience!
