About the Game

Dadum The Dice is a 3D tactical puzzle game where every decision matters.

Move on a turn-based grid, rotate your die with each step, and defeat enemies by landing next to them while your top face shows a higher number. Simple to understand but, do you think it will be easy?

How it works

  • Move up, down, left or right: each move rotates your die.

  • Rotate your camera to ensure your moves.

  • Stand next to an enemy to defeat it… if your top face number is higher.

  • Explore handcrafted levels full of tricks, hazards and surprises.

But this is only the beginning. As you journey through the Great Die, new mechanics constantly appear: enemies that boost or reduce your value, cannons, teleporters, explosive mines, movable blocks, and enemy dice with unique behaviors.

Bosses that break the rules

Each world introduces multiple bosses that challenge you in new ways: lure massive dice into traps, use mines to break armored faces, push enemies off floating islands, or find creative paths to hit their weak spots.

The core rules stay simple, but the scenarios never stop evolving.

Six themed worlds, 54 handcrafted levels

Travel across colorful, minimalist biomes: from peaceful villages to dense jungles, cloud islands, dark caves and a sprawling city. Each introduces new mechanics, enemy types, and multi-phase bosses.

Challenging, but always fair

Dadum The Dice is a game that rewards planning, not reflexes.
Take your time with each turn, study your next rotation, and find the sequence that cracks the puzzle. If you fail, you instantly restart the level. No grinding, no punishment.
