Free and lightweight virtual tabletop (VTT) suitable for running various tabletop RPGs with minimal system requirements.
Includes features like D&D dice rolling, token and map management, grid system, walls for line of sight, and combat and exploration modes.
Intuitive user interface with basic but functional customization options, suitable for game masters who track details manually.

Many bugs reported including token assignment issues, fog of war problems, map crashes, and performance drops during token movement.
Limited character sheet customization and features, lacking important stats like mana points and deeper RPG mechanics.
Heavy reliance on microtransactions and in-app purchases with a problematic cash shop; misleading marketing claiming it is a free game when paid elements are required.

The monetization of Roles & Dice is heavily criticized for aggressive and toxic microtransactions typical of mobile cash shops, detracting from the experience. Additionally, users express distrust toward the developer's claims about in-app purchases and highlight the app's poor quality compared to professional tabletop emulators.
- “Instead of being a game, Roles & Dice is a software application that competes with professionally made tabletop emulators like Roll20, but this is much worse, featuring what appear to be almost certainly plagiarized or stolen character art, and is infested with toxic mobile app cash shop microtransactions.”
- “The Steam page clearly denotes in-app purchases for this application.”
- “The developer here wants you to believe he was lying to you when he told everyone this has in-app purchases?”
