Introduction

In Dice Mice, players take the role as a posh mouse fighting through trash monsters that have taken over your land. In your disposal you have five dice that can be used for attacking the monsters five different cores.

Defeat monsters by attacking their heart core, but just focusing on that core won’t do you any good, you have to take into account the attack and defence core as well. If you are feeling adventurous during a fight then try to go for a quintuple for an instant victory!

Just know that if things get tough there is always the flee core; run from the battle and try a new one! Maybe the next encounter will be in your favor? Or if you are in a real pinch, try to build on the bandage core to heal during battle!

After each defeated monster you earn loot, you will need it to defeat your nemesis!

May the odds be ever in your favor!

Controls

Keyboard: Arrow keys, Z and X
Controller: D-pad / Joystick, A and B

If you like the game, it would be awesome if you buy it on itch.io, it supports further development of more games.

This is fabulous! I've been following the development on Twitter and have been looking forward to it for awhile. The controls & strategy feel really nicely balanced. The boss killed me, but I felt like I had a chance, just didn't get the roll I needed at the end :).

@2bitchuck Thank you for those kind words :)

Really neat little game. I was a bit confused at first but when I got how the game works it’s a really fun game. Keep up the good work

For those like me who do not know. A "Trip" is a three of a kind. Had to look that up.

Also Kudos on the cool game. <3

This is a fun game indeed. It takes a bit of time to work out how everything works, but then it's a nice challenge to beat the final boss. Now happily nibbling away at my cheese...

@SleepyNuigurumi Yep, three of a kind would have been nice, but I wanted a shorter word as pico-8 resolution is not kind to long text descriptions. Thanks <3

@eriban Thanks for playing and sharing :)

Another one of your addicting games to burn my free time with. I don't know how, but you somehow find a way to make rng (which I utterly loathe with a blistering hot passion) based games rlly fun. I'm gonna slowly get better at this game like Cards with Personalities, and get angry at rng, while having fun at the same time.

@Vinnyc11 Thanks, glad you like it even though it is ring heavy!

Alright, I've beaten the game, and I only have 2 problems so far (excluding rng).
1:I think there should be a way to view your buffs if possible.
2:There's a little glitch where if you press x after using your last rolled die, you'll be stuck in the battle(?)... part, and softlocked.
