a little inscrutable. I like the art, though it's unevenly distributed in the game. I think I figured out what a winning roll and arrangement of dice was, but I don't understand how to estimate how much damage I'm looking at if I lose a roll, or how much I stand to deal if I win which made it hard to know how conservative to be. I like that it embraces the dice mechanically and they feel central to the design of the game.
consider starting the player with one health potion so that a run can survive a bumpy start or make mistakes learning how the systems work. And a single tutorial page on the main screen telling the player:
- what their options on their turn are,
- what a good roll looks like,
- what they earn for playing well,
- and how to spend that resource to get stronger
would go a long way to helping them find their footing and start feeling like they're playing the game.
