Roll the dice on this roguelike eating up hours of your time.
We’re checking out the hidden gems of Game Pass over the next few weeks, digging up all the obscure and esoteric games secreted away in our subscription and seeing how they play.
We’re taking a look at some of the esoteric delights found in the PC Game Pass catalogue. This week, it’s the turn of Terry Cavanagh’s quirky roguelike battler Dicey Dungeons.
Sure, Balatro might be the breakout roguelike hit of 2024, but before the cards came the roll of the dice. In Dicey Dungeons, you’ve been transformed into a six-sided die at the hands of Lady Luck—forced to participate in her twisted game show. Navigate the dungeons for the entertainment of a heartless crowd, using dice rolls to activate skills that damage your enemies or buff your skills.
There’s plenty of depth to each run, with multiple classes that each present different combat mechanics. And as you play, you’ll unlock new ways to buff your attacks and skills—creating powerful tactical synergies that will have the monsters falling at your six-sided feet. In the video above, we show exactly what it is that makes Dicey Dungeons a roguelike classic that’s well worth your time.
