Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
The game is entertaining, bolstered by good replayability due to a large variety of modifiers (4 different playable characters and multiple dice types, trinkets, and relics).
84 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Gameplay

The game loop is really fun, I'm enjoying trying to evaluate the risk reward.

Steam Deck
Players who bring up Steam Deck mostly praise it.
Steam Deck / Controller support is improving but still has a few kinks to work out.
12 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Multiplayer
Players who bring up Multiplayer mostly praise it.
•a lack of meaningful meta progression, most of your rewards for completing a run are used for the eternity mode and the pvp mode and if you’re like me and don’t care about the eternity mode and pvp then its largely useless to you.
9 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
The entire atmosphere of the game feels very in tune, the sound effects, "graphics" (most of your time is spent staring at the board, nobody moves in the cutscenes between rounds), even the dice physics feel "polished" for an early access title.
