About the Game

Game Introduction

Dead Roll creates poker hands by rolling dice,

Fill the target score required for each round 

It is a dice-building roguelike where you play against a dealer.

The rules are simple. 

Roll the dice, decide when to stop, 

You just need to exceed the target score with the completed family tree.

However, as the game progresses 

Luck, build, items, and dealer interference all mixed together 

A completely different flow is created in every round.

Player character

More than 10 player characters are 

They have different starting conditions and play styles.

Some characters are easy to build a stable build, 

Some characters are specialized in dangerous combos, and

Some characters start with strange conditions from the beginning.

Depending on who you choose, even a game with the same rules unfolds in a completely different way.

Boss Dealer

Boss dealers are at the player's discretion 

It does not let you solve the game.

Each dealer can change the table rules, or  

Disrupts specific strategies or applies higher pressure. 

Even familiar builds require completely different responses depending on the dealer.

Using poker hand rankings

Pair, Straight, Flush, etc. 

It is based on familiar poker hand rankings.

The basic rules are easy to understand, but,

As the types of dice increase and item effects are added 

You can aim for higher scores and complex combos.

Shops and items

Between rounds at the store 

You can purchase various modes and consumables.

Over 100 consumables and mods are waiting to be purchased.

Multiplying the score, or triggering additional effects under specific conditions,  

It significantly changes the gameplay by compensating for a lacking build.

In a prepared build, even an ordinary roll can lead to a high score.

Dice modification and creation

A die is not merely a tool to roll,

This is the core of a build that you can customize yourself.

Change the dice rolls, craft according to the required combination,

You can refine your deck in a direction that targets a specific hand.

CRT-style pixel art

Deadroll has a screen texture like looking at a CRT monitor and 

It is composed of hand-drawn pixel art style.

A dark casino atmosphere, suspicious dealers and characters blend together 

It creates an atmosphere like a gambling den inside a nostalgic game console.

Roll the dice, build combos, and beat the dealer.
