Of Dice and Minions is a pixel-art, dice-rolling auto-battler roguelite. Each of your five dice is a minion type, and the higher you roll, the more of that minion spawn. The demo covers the tutorial and the first 20 floors and is out now on Steam. The full game launches November 16, 2026.
Of Dice and Minions is a pixel-art, dice-rolling auto-battler roguelite where your army comes from five dice. Solo studio Foorbytes released its demo on Steam today, October 6, 2026. The full game launches on Steam on November 16, 2026.
Each of your five dice is a minion type, and the higher you roll, the more of that minion spawn. Roll, hold and reroll to land a poker hand. The hand decides which dice deploy and what bonus they get, from extra units on a Pair to triple damage and health on Five of a Kind. Then your army fights on its own.
The demo includes the tutorial and the first 20 floors of the dungeon, with bosses on Floors 10 and 20. The bosses roll dice of their own to call in reinforcements. Demo progress uses a separate save and does not carry over to the full game.
The full game descends 100 floors across 10 zones, with a boss every tenth floor. Between fights, players spin jackpot reels, pull off mimic heists, open treasure chests and collect relics. Minions are recruited and upgraded between runs.
Of Dice and Minions launches November 16, 2026 on Steam for Windows, macOS, Linux and Steam Deck. Rob, the solo developer behind Foorbytes, is building it in Godot.
