Creative Vision / Rationale / How Did You Incorporate the Theme
In Dice or Death, we redefine generosity – it's not just giving or taking. It's the courage to practice continuous generosity, forging a bond of shared life in the fight against death.

The game mechanics embody this generosity:
You roll dice, representing the mother's initial gift of life. Every roll is an act of generosity, delivering vital resources (points) to the fragile baby. Upgrading tiles is a generous investment in the mother's own body – strengthening organs (tile value) and defenses (special effects) to better sustain the child. Adjusting tile chances is an act of generous probability, tilting fate to give the baby better odds. Modifying the dice demands the deepest generosity – sacrificing its core nature to adapt. Every strategic choice you make is fueled by generosity, protecting two interconnected lives.

The world reflects this spirit of generosity:
Ten chapters mirror ten months; forty levels are forty weeks of struggle. When you spend resources to upgrade tiles or alter the dice, you enact humanity's oldest generosity: a mother sharing her bones' calcium, her blood's iron, her cells' energy. Death's rising challenge forces this generosity beyond instinct. You constantly face generous choices: hoard resources for safety, or spend them generously for the baby's greater chance? This is generosity's essence: weaving a bond through sacrificial giving.

The new life born at the end is more than victory. It's the living proof of generosity's power: when humans choose to give of themselves to sustain connection, they reclaim life's world from Death.
