Die in the Dungeon CLASSIC
Die in the Dungeon is a deck-building, turn-based roguelite where you dont use cards, but dice! Try to find the best combination to conquer the 2X-floor dungeon, but be careful, a frog like you can only get so far before encountering a prey too big to swallow...

Die in the Dungeon is coming to Steam!
Big news today! We're working on a bigger, bolder and overall better version of Die in the Dungeon for Steam! There's still a long way to go before launch, but the Steam page is now live:

Of course, spreading the word among your friends, family and anyone you think can enjoy the game is also really valuable. We want to make everyone aware of this new version we're working on. But you're probably asking youself what will the Steam version include, right? Well, here are some of the features we're planning for it:
- Relics! 👑
- A completely new event system!⚖️
- More enemies! New bosses! 🐲
- Lots of new dice types and properties! 🎲

I. AM. THE GREAT MIGHTY POO, AND IM GOING TO THROW MY S._. AT YOU
I did 400 damage. With heavy terrain.
Womp womp
Nice, what was that? phase 5?
Tough without a Heal & Block die it is very hard to get past floor 50. Keep Grinding
I'm sorry I don't know how to post images... :(
Great Game and Awesome art, it is very easy to get addicted to this game (in a good way) and that makes it a good game and makes the Developer a really smart guy.
Sometimes I wished that there were competitions on this game just to see it getting pushed to its limits by professional players.
Also here is a random dice idea: "void die", creates a an empty space X places away, can only have 0, 1 or 2 as faces, grow, terrain and boost don't affect it, and it gets improved by "silver" and "gold" tiers like the mirror die.
I think this would make for a fun die to play with, tough it might be a bit broken. and could fundamentally break the mirror die
fun little puzzle game, when played on desktop I couldn't find a "quit"at the game over screen tho...
It is an awesome roguelike with a lot of potential.
I'm excited for the official release on Steam.
Hello
Can someone please help me get to higher phases of endless mode? I usually make it to phase three, and rarely phase four, but I've never made it to 5. I have been using grow, hollow on everything. Block die are usually the lucky one. And my usual attack die are area. I sometimes take one mirror die and one grow, hollow heal die. I rarely ever take terrain, pierce, and eternal die (although I do realize that eternal, grow is op). I never take bomb die, and never take heavy die except for lucky one block die. So, if anyone has ideas on how I could improve, please don't hesitate to share.
Thanks I'm advance, DITD Lover
ok, here are some tips, trust me I'm good, I've reached endless mode in every run for the past 7 runs, I consistently reach floor 30 and I've reached floor 51 before dying to an unfortunate event with the grasshopper which forced my boost die to be glass.
Here are some things that I do to reach such floors, you might not like them but I believe them to be the right choice:
1. Thin to Win, having a lot of dices might be nice and make you feel powerful, but having only 5 dices increases the consistency of your build a lot. Always being able to know what you have is really good.
2. ALWAYS TAKE THE SPIDER, the spider asks you 3 questions, if you can answer them correctly it'll give you broken dices like a "basic block and heal die", get one of these dices and build around them.
3. Don't Use Terrain Dices, there dices might be good for the early phases, but I've learned that in a situation where weak attacks deal 5 damage Terrain are too slow for the situation.
4. Always Max heal, before finishing a fight always heal to full, it is way better to get the "increase max hp" option that the "heal to full" option as the fist one increases your Max HP permanently and increases even your shield cap-
5. Avoid Eternal and maybe avoid heavy, this dices might be powerful and might be OP with grow, but if you have enough hollow and you have followed point 1, then the lower numbers on the eternal dices will make a difference.
I hope to have given some good tips, Have fun :)
Thanks, and as an edit, I made it to endless five twice since posting the original comment. Also, spider event is op, but she only give me half boost, the other half random. Which, imo, is bad. Your thoughts?
When you get Block and Heal then you are sure to get to phase 5, that thing can defend anything. ANYTHING, if you only get Boost & Random, Then I'm sorry, that part is full on random, and boost is the worst one to get.
Just keep on trying, sometimes you'll get a strong build and you'll reach phase 6, maybe even 7 if you miss the grasshopper.
this game was very fun but i'm stuck on floor twenty. is there more game after floor twenty?
Very cool. I like how modular the modifiers are. Really cool
Bro will NOT know what hit him.
first of all, HOW?
Also, I did the same but on the queen fight, I should have an achievement for killing the boss in 1 shot
Mirror and Terrain Dice. Its a LITTLE op.
Mh, I understand what you are talking about, I tried it once, I simply didn't have enough heal and block and I got killed before I could do anything.
No, I haven't found any useful strategy for bombs.
Also my high score is 51, I could have gotten to 56 and higher, but the grasshopper forced me to glass my only boost dice
P.S. You must have been so lucky, you must have gotten the "increase Max HP" so many times, in my best run I always exited with Max HP and I only got to 68.
Do you have any tips for me?
I just try to block super aggressively. That's why I like eternal, grow, attack dice. Play the dice, then outlast the baddies. In Pokémon, this would be the "spam toxic and potion" strategy :)
I don't really know that well Pokémon but I get what you are talking about, tough I have to ask, If you are always playing the eternal block die, then way not make it hollow & grow and just always play it?
Never mind I just looked at the image :)
is the "the poop" die for some secret?
nope! It's just an unlucky find lol
it can become extremely strong if upgrades to gold all faces become 6
Actually it can be upgraded to "the holy" dice with sixes on all six sides🤔
you can convert it to "the holy" by upgrading it to gold tier
The "oops all ones" die can become the "oops all sixes" after it is upgraded to gold
Sucks that there isn't a save and load feature...😭
yea that's rough i was on like floor 42 and lost it lolol
this quite a fun game, Ithink am improvement would be more statis effects from your dice
ok we brought an ASS TON OF HOLLOW DICE now lets see if we beat the bee
the bee is so easy lol
if you play right
I think that the queen is a really easy fight also because of the honey dices that help your damage scale
a good and cute game to pass time in class.
so true
Jogo mais perfeito do mundo to obcecada por tudo! gameplay, pixelart, musica! tudo incrivel.
this is like my fifth time playing this game and I only now realise you can change enemy selection
I get it lol
What? What is enemy selection
Like that
Amazing art style, just a suggestion, the pink dice could upgrade the pink dice to make the other pink dice stronger.
might cause an infinite loop though
that is why
hehe
yea that would cause an infinite loop lol
I do think terrain dice should boost them though
but the value on boost dice is equal to how far away the tile they boost is, so making them higher than four would make them useless
I think that this should be true, but then I'd nerf the pink die a ton.
Also if pink could buff pink then purple should buff purple, which would crash the game
Nice art style!~
Thank you for making an amazing game <3
def gonna try to get higher
you should only use 5-6 dice lol
its a must
also try Die in the Dungeon Origins, it's on steam for free
yeah I realized this later, this was a super old run
wait is there a final floor?
ehh kinda in your first run, you die at 25 to the boss. but after that its endless
I was biased towards this game because normally I hate turn based games BUT this was something i didn't expected to play.Besides the super fun gameplay, the art was really astonishing too; great colors, perfect anti-alising usage and smooth animations.Wishlisted already ,can't wait to play full version !
Every once in a while I come back to this game for a run or two. I really like it and I wish you all the best on the Steam version (already wishlisted it!)
I love this game. I'm too addicted to it @_@
I need an hack to survive, pls don't judge me XD
hack? how do you hack?
really good fun, could defiantly get lost in this for a few hours or days!!
damn this made me distracted for 50 minutes
This game is really addictive, I still find myself playing it from time to time. Endless mode is too much for me, but I think I achieved some bragging rights on normal mode.
would really love this in android! omg i wanna bring this everywhere i go
REALLY hecking fun. Chill vibes, exactly the kind of game I need to calm down <3
Its a good Game, but I Will tell some tips, the Boost dice its Better a Silver rank than Gold, bcs you have more chances to use a 2 points than 3 althought its Better 3p than 1 yet. don't transform terrain dice into a heavy dice, bcs heavy it's worst than normal terrain dice, its Better if you can use the place quickly, can theres time when the game will make you lose if you like or not
terrain dice just suck in general
Really awesome game, although there should be an option when you first start to read it without having to look for it.
i really love this game, the idea is really good
I really loved this game, at first I found it a little confusing, but then I realized that I was just too lazy to read the tutorial, now that I know how to play I love it
some day big frog, some day
haven't played at the time of this comment but i can already tell this will be a really cool game on its official release
woo best run so far
why do you have so many dice lol you should have like maybe 5 or 6
i like dice :)
