One of the games that can compete directly with the development of Pokemon is Dicefolk, a game that perfectly combines the genre of creature collection with roguelike and dice fighting. Dicefolk puts players in the role of Alea, one of the world’s most famous nomads, and she realizes that she can use her dice to tame Chimera, magical creatures that have roamed the land that was bewitched by the evil Salem centuries ago.
A NEW ADVENTURE OPENS WITH ALEA
The Dicefolk have the ability to use magical dice that can change the will of living creatures according to the will of the controller, however not everyone can possess this power, only a few can control them skillfully. Alea’s possession of this cursed power is amazing and unbelievable, despite the difficulties and obstacles, Alea finally decides to use her skills to conquer any Chimera she meets on the way. Alea’s ambition is to utilize the power of Chimera to end Salem, and at the same time discover the mysterious truth behind these Chimera.
Dicefolk allows you to start with a few regular Chimera, they move randomly around the map. Players must discover more monsters and collect them to join their ranks to participate in boss battles to advance to the next area. Of course, you will not be able to go to the next points if you avoid fighting other Chimera along the way, all of which will make you participate in a three-on-three battle. If all of your Chimera are defeated, the game will end.
UNLIMITED DIFFICULT BATTLES
In Dicefolk, rotation is not just about choosing who is attacking and who is in command, but even the act of rotating and switching leads has an impact on the outcome of the battle. Some Chimeras, when switched to the lead position, can immediately attack all enemy enemies.
While others are rotated, they can have a chance to inflict negative status on random enemies with a few special functions that players will discover during the battle. More specifically, equipment or items can be found along the way, it can bring special effects that allow the equipped Chimera to deal three damage when switching to the lead position.
The engaging art style, robust combat system, and strategic player choices make this a great addition to the roguelike library. Dicefolk is a great addition to your gaming repertoire, feeling fresh without straying too far from the core ideas, accessible without being unfamiliar, and remaining enjoyable even after you’ve gotten to grips with its unique features.
