Dicey Dungeons

Overview

Dicey Dungeons is a light, fast roguelike where you become a walking dice and battle through dungeons using a mix of luck and build-craft. Each class plays differently, and runs are short, making it a great pick-up-and-play game for handhelds.

Where you can play it

Dicey Dungeons is available on:

• PC (Steam and other PC stores)
• Nintendo Switch
• Xbox / PlayStation (in many regions)
• Mobile on some platforms

Because it’s turn-based and grid-like, it works well on:

• Switch / handheld consoles – perfect for short runs.
• Steam Deck / handheld PCs – low system requirements, very battery-friendly.
• Laptops / desktops for relaxed mouse/keyboard play.

Why it works on the move

• Short runs – a single floor or challenge can fit into a few minutes.
• Pausing is trivial – no timing pressure between turns.
• Simple visuals and low requirements – ideal for lower-power handhelds.

Things to know

• There’s RNG, but there’s also a lot of build depth; learning how to mitigate bad rolls is part of the fun.
• Each character class introduces different rules – expect a learning curve early on.
• The game is relatively small in download size, so it’s good for devices with limited storage.

Play it on…

• Switch – ideal “curl up on the sofa” platform.
• Steam Deck / handheld PC – great if you already have a PC library.
• Mobile / tablet – if you prefer touch controls where available.
