So, I just got slice & dice and man, I’m hooked. Dunno if that qualifies for patient gaming, it’s a bit older than a year.
It’s a roguelike, but not really a deckbuilder. Instead, you keep upgrading and improving a DnD-like party that keeps going down a dungeon of some sort, where each person is represented as a six-sided die. Your magician has sides that produce mana, your fighter more sides that deal damage etc etc.
I’m several hours in, which for me is already a lot. Just lost my latest run on level 19/20 in normal difficulty, so it feels like I’m starting to get an idea of what works well. The game has lots of unlockables and achievements and looking for upgrades and characters that synergise well is fun. The balancing seems, as far as I can tell so far, outstanding - time will tell if that holds.
