Horn & Dice is a dark folkloric roguelike where every battle is decided by the roll — and by what you do after it lands.
Forget cards. Your build is a set of dice, and every face is a choice. Roll your hand, then spend your rerolls wisely: lock in a solid strike, chase a bigger number, or gamble everything on one more throw.
Descend through three acts of a world steeped in Slavic myth, where the forest remembers old debts and the dead don't always stay buried. Face folklore given teeth — Domovoy jams your dice mid-fight so you can't lock in a reroll, Rusalka drags you under the water and strikes back at every blow you land, Baba Yaga curses your hand before her killing blow falls. Every enemy fights the way its legend says it should — bleeding wounds, choking curses, and retaliation baked into the roll itself.



Features
Dice-first combat — roll, reroll, resolve. Every decision changes the odds.
Every reroll is a gamble — better odds now, or hold your nerve for something greater.
Slavic folklore — creatures and events drawn from real myth, with mechanics that reflect who they are.
No two runs alike — the dice, artifacts, and potions you find shape a build no other run will have.
Three acts — descend, gather power, and see how far your luck and skill can carry you.
