Simple but very creative, the intensity of the music and the well written texts really adds to the action.
Wish I was lucky enough to roll the Special move. Good job !

Loved the presentation and the combination of both strategy and random elements. Also best name for a game ever!

Dice Knight 2600Incredibly pretty and well-made. I think the combat is cool, but with some little tweaks it could be more intersting. Like maybe you get to keep the unused dice in-between rounds. Or maybe you have a stamina bar that moves eat up, but rerolling eats it up too. You're on a great track here, it just feels a little shallow right now and with some new idea it could really be deep. Great stuff, love it!

Do or Die!I like how rerolling adds a strategy element to the randomness of rolling the dices !
The presentation is really impressive ! The music is absolutely fantastic !

The Fellowship of the DiceWell done! You did a solid game that looks polished! Love that the roll of the dice decides the type of attacks that can be used! With the music and the art, it felt like an epic movie battle Ahah! Just wished we could see the enemy's health, but I guess it gave some tension to the fight! Congratulations!

Dicey DungeonVery well-made game! I love the atmosphere and the darkish pixel artstyle, sort of reminds me of undertale. The music is really nice, however you did say that they were mostly made before the jam, but that doesn't change the fact that it was great! The animations were also very well-done. The only real problem I have, however, is that I can't see their health, but that's just my 2 cents. This could very well be further developed with a wider variety of dice, and a cool lore. Well done!

Adventures of Sr. DiceSuper polished! The fight was engaging and the artwork added a lot to the experience. Since the theme was released I was looking forward to playing some cool RPG-type games and yours is among the top! Great work!

Roll With The PunchesVery polished game, also the theme was incorporated very well. It took me a couple of tries, but eventually, I beat it. It's very fun, having that risky reroll option with a chance of getting a worse or better outcome. Really good job!

Die Sorcerer!The art style is great and goes well with the game. The idea is very interesting too, and it's well made.
Small detail but the typewritting effect on the help texts confused my greatly, I expected things that hare happening now to have typewritting, but help and tooltips to appear instantly.

Slash the Dice | GMTK 2022Huge thumbs up for sfx and visuals. What i love the most is the dice mechanic. I think it's really cool that you can reroll and i think there is a lot of potential to just add bosses, ket them have special powers and maybe a little storytelling between bossfights. Love it!

Lucky Golfloveley style and such a great vertical slice of something you could turn into a bigger game!
I can imagine you customizing your dicebag and spells to upgrade you character/party and to mold it to your playstyle.
Incredibly solid entry!

REROLL (GMTK2022 JAM)I had some good fun with this, I got this feeling of danger and scale which is hard to get in turn based games. I think the art really helps sell atmosphere and the mechanics we're interesting enough while striking a nice balance of complexity.

Casino RoyaleI enjoyed this thoroughly. The SFX and art style are top notch and made me feel like I was fighting a formidable foe. Nice one!
