The value story

August 2026 is where it bottomed out, at $8.99. It has been discounted 13 times in the 2 years tracked here, typically at 25 percent off, with about 6 weeks between sales. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended about 5 weeks ago.

On value it sits in the top 17 percent of its genre. It is better reviewed than 83 percent of its genre. Among the games that feel like it, 9 Kings ($9.99, scores 77) beats it on value, while it beats Iris and the Giant ($3.59, scores 64).

6 of the 350 Steam-purchase reviews sampled here come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written February 2025 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 81 percent of the 341 reviews written there were positive, against 92 percent overall, and those are 11 percent of everything written about it.

HowLongToBeat players log 3.8 hours as a typical playtime, and completionists log 38, 10 times as much.

Valve rates it Steam Deck Verified, and at 3.8 hours it is short enough to finish on one.

What players say

It's a dice game where you have attack, defense and booster dice, and you have to fit them into a gridboard in order to use them. Different characters have different shape and sized boards, with artefacts and curses modifying how you interact with the dice, the board and the enemies. I think it's overall pretty good. Mechanics are flawless and unique, tooltips get you going quickly. Art and music are excellent. Only...

It is hard to understand at first however when you get the hang of it the game becomes much more enjoyable.
