What Dicevaders is

Dicevaders is a dice-based roguelike deckbuilder set in the StarVaders universe, from Pengonauts and publisher Playstack. This time you are on the other side: you lead the alien invasion.

56 : 4

demo reviews on Steam

Very Positive

demo rating

You draft dice, place invaders on a turn-based grid and chain pairs, triples and quadruples into combos. Rerolls and nudges let you fix a bad throw, so the developers pitch it as a game of decisions rather than luck. Each commander brings its own perks and scaling.

The demo sits at Very Positive on Steam, 56 positive against 4.

Pick it up if

  • You liked StarVaders or Balatro-style combo chasing
  • You want short strategy runs

Maybe skip it if

  • You dislike randomness in any form
  • You want real-time action

It is one of the games in our weekly release video, releasing on Tuesday, 29 September. Every other dated game is on the release timeline.
