Jun 20, 2024Dicefolk is an excellent new addition to the enormous roguelite genre that manages to feel fresh without getting too far away from the core ideas that make these sorts of games so addictive and popular. An attractive art style, strong combat system, and meaningful player choices make this one a brilliant addition to the library for anyone looking for another great roguelite on Switch. Even if you aren’t typically a fan of this genre, we’d suggest you at least consider this as a possible entry point—Dicefolk is approachable without being patronizing and it’s tons of fun once you get a grasp of its various quirks.

Jul 22, 2024Dicefolk is an excellent game that takes full advantage of the Switch. It is challenging but balances that out with giving the player full control over every turn - both their and their opponent's actions. Progression can feel a little skewed towards the luck of what upgrades you get offered run to run; but there is so much you can control to help guide your fate. If the game boiled down to a roll of the die; well, you can even upgrade the faces of that as well.

Jul 12, 2024Dicefolk's core combat blends critter fights and dice rolling to great effect. The fighting is satisfying and it looks gorgeous. The plot is a little absent, but it doesn't damper the overall good feeling that Dicefolk brings to the table.

Jun 25, 2024Despite its pitfalls, Dicefolk was one of the more fun roguelikes I’ve played. It successfully tantalized me with the idea that this might be the time that I managed to pull a team together, after crushing me again and again.
