About This Game

Gamble your way out of hell in this blackjack-inspired rogue-lite deckbuilder. Play powerful card combos or cheat to outwit your opponents and earn your freedom. Win their Soul coins! Bribe the ferryman! And uncover the story of those who stand in your way.

In this game, you can…

  • …build face cards into a permanent soap opera where the King and Queen fuse, then the Jack joins and the royal set escalates into murder, ghosts, and revenge
  • …peek at upcoming draws and inspect what remains in your deck, then use suit-marked card backs to plan several moves ahead
  • …hit a late-game boss where the whole fight pivots into playing to 42 while the boss starts dropping 10s, and you win by stalling or breaking the setup

About This Game

Circadian Dice is a game inspired by single-player deck-building games, but instead of upgrading a deck, you build up a set of dice! Use 10 different heroes and 60 game-warping relics to take on 13 hand-crafted scenarios, in runs that take 10-30 minutes. Lots of secrets and unlocks to discover!

In this game, you can…

  • …capture almost any enemy, including bosses, then turn them into dice bonuses or new attacks based on their stats.
  • …unlock secret areas by killing specific enemies in the right order.
  • …chain an artifact that rewards 4+ attacks into extra mana, extra attack rounds, and doubling single-attack dice to keep it going.
