Reviews: What People Think About Dice of Kalma

Rating: 4/5
This simple roguelike shares a lot with Balatro. The hand-leveling system, the various skulls you can buy for bonuses, and the round requirements make it pretty clear where its inspiration comes from. While I think it does a good job of recreating that style with the dice, I feel like it can do more with the gameplay. Maybe if there were ways to change your dice in some way or add/remove them for benefits would give more complexity to the gameplay. Overall, its a fun little game that everyone should try, even if its not the most complex game in the world. I hope for the best for the devs!

Maybe I’m just skilled issued but I tend to be pretty good at roguelikes and here I can’t even get halfway through the stages. After failing around 30 different attempts going with the flow of which skulls I had to choose from, I specifically tried to make a 4 and 5 of a kind run around 10-15 times in a row, picking the skulls that would seem most likely to help, but it would always fail around stage 11. I know the main point of the game is luck rolling dice, but at least in other similar games like luck be a landlord or balatro you never feel like it’s completely out of your hand or just due to bad luck. Maybe there needs to be a third type of strategic system to help you progress rather than just skulls. Or a deeper layer to the game after you beat it once and then it gets harder. I’ll definitely be playing more though and see what happens.

I see a lot of people commenting how hard it is to win in this game. I actually think that’s a positive. I played a lot of games that I’ve enjoyed a lot where eventually I do everything there is to do and then I just lose my incentive to keep playing. Even though I’ve already won in dice of kalma I still enjoy playing because it’s so hard to win again. It’s a great game and while I can certainly suggest some improvements I think it’s currently very well done.
