Slice & Dice 4+

One of the very best mobile games I’ve played. This is fantastic on the iPad as it feels like an actual tabletop game with great pixel graphics. Comes with amazing gameplay that can be remixed in some many’s ways which the developer has baked into the game. It’s almost an endless amount of creativity. I think the caps in the game is what’s so great such as having an max item level up of 50 and it spawns a “Glitch” pushing yourself to get even better at the game and truly understanding how the rolls and dice work, how items interact and even make chain events. How intricate can it become? It’s wonderful. I absolutely love it.

But some new modes would be nice within constraints.

Everything else is being amazing.

An excellent roguelike that is worth the in-app purchase to upgrade. The game is strategic and can be quite challenging, if you’re looking for that.
There’s loads of depth to the synergies and classes. The items can feel a little out-of-balance, sometimes defining the run’s success and other times collecting dust in the inventory. But since it is a roguelike, that kind of variance is to be expected and even embraced.

The mobile implementation is one of the best I have played for this kind of game. It can be played portrait or landscape, which both feel good. Tap-to-hold and other UX are well done and if you ever make a mistake, you can just undo. Unlike some other mobile turned-based/boardgame-esque games, you’re never really fighting the controls and you aren’t put in a position where a mis-press can end your run.

Ultimately, it’s worth the free download just to check out. The tutorial in the 3.0 helps fill in the gaps and makes it’s easier to understand what’s going on. There’s a certain charm to this game and the brief text descriptions and chunky pixel art make it feel almost like a port of an old Gameboy game (except for the 3D dice).
