An entirely new take on dice-based roguelike deckbuilders
Die for the Lich is a dark fantasy, turn-based roguelike deckbuilder with unique dice that fuel your strategy and your downfall. Roll dice and magical trinkets and pair them with weapons to battle legendary monsters. Unlock new gear by completing grueling challenges and prepare for the final battle against the King of undead, the Lich!
You must pair your dice rolls with your weapons and armaments, aiming for a Critical Value that grants bonus abilities. The crux of the game is balancing that risk and reward when pushing your dice rolls. Die For The Lich draws inspiration from titles such as Slay the Spire, Dicey Dungeons, and Darkest Dungeon.
Who should play Die for the Lich?
- Fans of strategic, turn-based, high-risk / high-reward gameplay
- Anyone who enjoys spooky, gothic themes and folklore monsters
- D&D players who love the unpredictable power and punishment of a dice roll
