Was a fantastic game from the first release, and the version 2.0 pushed it to new heights; it has SO MUCH content, so many unlocks - characters, items, custom game modes (which I haven't tried yet, but they definitely add much in terms of replayability)
Only thing missing is some OST, but you can always play something in the background.
This is without a doubt the best game that has ever been on my android phone. I like it so much that when I recommend it and people don't seem too interested I offer to pay for it just so someone else can experience this game
Ok so I decided to update my review because I need to. This game at first to me just felt too much luck. But after a long and rickety process I think I can say now this is a good game. I think there could be some improvements, but mostly just little nitpicks. All in all you made a really good game. I also am a huge sucker for pixel graphics so that's another plus for me.
This game has single handily given me a really bad addiction really quick... its sooooooo good.
Played the first 7 levels of the demo and after the mechanics started to click with me paid for the full game becuase I knew this was going to be my new time waster on my phone :3
I love the dice mechanics, I love the way you level up and the way items can effect the dice and the ability's they offer you.
and love that if I'm in the middle of a roll and I need to close it to do something else. it will pick back up with the dice roll you made when you reopen the game and continue.
this game seems stunningly simple, yet it's very deeply complex. :3
Hey, guys. I'm really enjoying the game and Blursed is my favorite mode rn. But I have an issue I think.
When I unlocked all modes, characters, items and etc. through special option, it didn't unlock T10 items and higher in Pick mode. Is there any ways to open them?
I'm playing on Android and bought full version of the game.
Quick note, am on Android, Frail Edges curse (damage x2 top and bottom if not shielded this turn) doesn't take into consideration Preparation blessing which shields you at the beginning of the first turn.
Your reasoning for not letting rerolls beyond 1 is insane. Just let us count it as a loss and reroll. I need specific curses to help with some unlocks but for some psychopathic reason I cant.
Hi Tann, i’m really eager to play your game. Gameplay mechanics are really well thoughts, and innovative. Any plan to release it on iOS ? Thanks for your answer
Is it possible you can make a endless mode ... Not the cursed or blursed modes, just a endless mode that goes on until you can't ... otherwise I don't think I can have to much more fun in this ... I will say the raid mode is my favorite rn because of the big party.
The big problem is that that kind of "endless mode" requires limitless difficulty escalation. The encounters in the game seem to be hardcoded (ie, there's one at a specific level with a Bramble and a Rat, rather than Bramble and Rat being random enemies that can be paired in any arbitrary encounter). The Lich always comes with some Bones and not Imps or Slates or whatever, because that's what the Lich encounter has. And so on.
Maybe the game could add enemies from different encounters together, e.g. Level 21 could have a level 13 encounter added to a level 7 encounter or something, then 22 does 14 and 8, etc. But that seems pretty hard to balance or playtest; it could probably work when both encounters are straightforward, but plenty have special design gimmicks that might not interact straightforwardly.
I'm a roguelike completionist and a game designer, and I dreamt of exactly this game for years.
I'm so happy that you made it and made it so well. This was a blast to 100% (well, i'm still missing a secret achievement, could it be related to the "error" enemy?).
Please give the maker of this game your money, they deserve it!
I enjoyed the free version a lot so I bought the full version and enjoyed it even more! The game is casually addictive and random in a good way. Various game modes and challenges are very entertaining.

I was just wondering whether there were any plans to add some colour blind options? I have lost characters several times in battle when they are poisoned as I struggle to tell the difference between the red health and the green poison icons.
I was also thinking, just as an idea, it would be quite useful if you could drag the dice around once they have been rolled, just as another way to help organise each roll and see what combinations would work together before deciding which to re-roll or lock in. I'm aware of the double click to arrange them in a column, but I just think sometimes a different way to organise them could be quite useful.
Last thought, when selecting a new character, if you want to compare between the old and new of a certain class then sometimes with certain characters the old characters dice panel opens and overlays the new option, rather than going above or under, so a direct comparison isn't possible. You have to flick back and forth between the old and the new. I was just thinking it'd be nice to have that direct comparison open above or bellow (where relevant). I hope you get what I mean, it's not the easiest thing to explain.
Have had a bug on mac twice now where upon crashing it fully wipes all my data and starts me on a blank acct : / Tann is there a built in shortcut to unlock all items/chars? (found it) Love the game to death, ty <3
I want to like Raid Mode, but the UI in the inventory is broken, no matter what UI size you choose, and I don't see a way to look at all the available heroes. I tried size -4 and it's still unusable.
who else keep coming back every 2-3 weeks hoping if there’s any update info about iOS/iPadOS updates?!
I would definitely pay more then I paid for win/Mac if it’s the only reason to get it in AppStore! Love this genius game but I hate my wife’s android phone :)
Love the game! When playing loot mode Easy is too hard and Heaven is too easy. I really wish there was an unfair equivalent where you could pick blessings adding up to 10. I know this doesn't really fit with the same difficulty settings over all modes but I think this addition would make loot mode difficult but fair.

You probably heard it many times before but would love to see this on steam. 😅
Love this game! How do we get our early backed version to steam?
There is no steam version
Anyone know why that is? I think this game would sell pretty big on Steam

Simply love it.
so so addictive
Amazing Game! i’d really love a linux build!
i wasnt able to get it working on proton :’c
I have run the windows .exe as a custom launched game on steam using proton.
Hi Guys!
Just being curious, when will new update come with new items and maybe classes? If not secret or or at least hints? ;)
Game is so great, I can't stop play it at least once a day!

Hi! This is such a cool game! Why didnt you publish it on Steam?
Was wondering the same thing
Hello. I think your game is a banger, bought it for Android and it's saving my sanity in my long trips to the city.
I have a friend who I think would greatly enjoy and appreciate Slice and Dice, but has only iOS. Do you have any plans on an iOS release?
Thank you for your time and effort.
I bought and installed the 2.0.0 version of this game. Recently play store said the newest version 2.0.1 came out.
Is there a patch note, change log or something?
They are the same

why is it the demo when i bought the full version and using the full version download link
demo is a mode in the full game, click “modes” on the title screen
question: is it possible to transfer saves over from the demo to the full game?
one of the best games ever made!!! i

This game is more addicting than coffee - and that's saying something! Kudos to the developers for keeping me up all night.
Can I play the full pc version even though I bought it on the phone? How do I do that if I can
Great game!

Love the game!
just did something i am disapointed didnt have an aechivement/secret attached.
had two chars with the selected character uses it's dice again and having them each reactivate the other in a chain doesnt do anything :(
Love the game! Is there a way to copy my save file from my pc to my phone?
book -> stats -> unlocks -> copy/load achievements
thank you
The game is beautiful in every way. Small issue though - I cannot change the default sound device for it. No matter what it's stuck to Windows System.
Have had a bug on mac twice now where upon crashing it fully wipes all my data and starts me on a blank acct : /
Tann is there a built in shortcut to unlock all items/chars?(found it) Love the game to death, ty <3W
I want to like Raid Mode, but the UI in the inventory is broken, no matter what UI size you choose, and I don't see a way to look at all the available heroes. I tried size -4 and it's still unusable.
Equipping items is also broken. Trying to equip an item on the first red hero causes the item to vanish and have no equip effect.
who else keep coming back every 2-3 weeks hoping if there’s any update info about iOS/iPadOS updates?!
I would definitely pay more then I paid for win/Mac if it’s the only reason to get it in AppStore! Love this genius game but I hate my wife’s android phone :)
I do!
Me as well… :(
... So is the 2.0 version its own separate game? I can download this one but have to buy the 2.0 version again?
Kind of a bait and switch, I bought the game to get access to the 2.0 stuff in development, and now that it's out I can't get the full finished build.
Pretty sure you are supposed to have 2.0, you can check in game... 4th button on the left (below settings almanac and language menu)
masterpiece of the games!!!!! one of the bests of all times!!!!!

Just played the demo tonight, VERY fun! I look forward to seeing how the game expands in the full version (
