Dice Carnival – A dice based roguelike deckbuilder

Hey everyone,

I’ve been working on a roguelike deckbuilder called Dice Carnival, but instead of building around cards or poker hands, the entire system revolves around dice manipulation and number synergies.

The core idea was:
What if you could “break” a dice system the same way you break card synergies?

In each run you can:

  • Use up to 4 active dice
  • Stack Jokers that modify odd/even numbers, 6s, repeats, combos, etc.
  • Build around probability manipulation instead of hand management
  • Face bosses that disable parts of your build (like nullifying odd numbers or disabling a Joker)

It’s heavily synergy-focused and leans into high-score runs and absurd multiplier stacking.

I’d genuinely love feedback from deckbuilder players — especially on how it feels compared to more card-driven systems.
