The gameplay is characterized by a complex and varied dice mechanic reminiscent of poker, offering a fast-paced experience with numerous viable builds and strategies. While the mechanics provide depth and enjoyment, some players find the English translation unclear, and the graphics detract from the overall experience. Despite these shortcomings, the game features a satisfying loop and a rich variety of options for customizing dice and deck-building.
- “Pace is quite fast and each run isn't too long or too short. The dice pool is very big with numerous mechanics to play, and most of them have their own use. Some are quite weak, so I don't pick them though. The option to customize dice makes the custom dice deck enjoyable too.”
- “There are a surprising amount of viable builds, many with their own mechanics.”
- “Each build feels different to play, and the mechanics add layers of strategy in satisfying ways.”
- “Sounds great, but the way the skills on the dice are described is unclear, and this isn’t about 'super' complicated mechanics; it’s simply about the poorly done English translation of the game.”
- “Mechanically, some aspects could be acceptable, and you could really enjoy the gameplay; however, the graphics truly kill this game.”
- “Only shortcoming I would point out would be the boss stage, since most of them only affect score, so which boss to face doesn't matter much; it would be better if their mechanics could make a difference for each run.”
