I never really understood all the combos, a reference table or something in the description would be nice. Plays nice and smoothly with great art and music. Having the different wanted posters to give your opponents some character was a really nice touch. Great work!

Not sure if I got the combos right, but I tried. A fresh take on the theme, haven't seen it so far. 10/10

Dice KingdomOnce I actually understoof what everything meant I had a lot of fun. The trading dice aspect really adds a lot of strategy, although I made the mistake of not realising they were dice (stupid me) and so you're not just trading one dice face but all 6. I accidentally traded my guns away!

Roll and ConquerReally fun take on the theme! Nice art and sound design complement each other. The rounds may take a bit of planning but I like it a lot. Also really nice that the dice show exactly what they can roll, but found that out after 2 rounds. Wondering if that's decided by rng within a limit or predetermined. The only problem is the difficulty. At times it seemed really easy, and over half of the fights were done within the first round, not really requiring to think long(er) term, build up courage, or strategically cancel moves. Mostly I just focussed on rolling a reload (3/6 on a die) and a gun (2/6 on 2 dice) and that's basically the end of the fight.

Time to DieReally interesting and fun strategy game. Once I got to Gunslinger Gretchen, I had to really start thinking about my dice order and how to block her bullets. The theming is great too (especially the itch.io page font choice)!

Do or Die!Really enjoyed this!
Interesting concept to be battling various (non-number) dice rolls.
Did take a while to get the hang of what each of the symbols meant (some wee tooltips would be handy), but would definitely play again!
