FULL STORY
======================================================================

Upcoming roguelike strategy game Dicefolk finally has a release date, and its 
surprisingly soon. 

To be exact, Dicefolk is set to release on PC via Steam on February 27, so 
theres not long to wait. The game, which is being developed by LEAP Game 
Studios and Tiny Ghoul, and published by Good Shepherd Games, puts players in 
the shoes of a chimera summoner, who sets out on an adventure to collect 
chimeras (monsters you can battle with) and ultimately uncover the real truth 
behind them. 

There are over 100 different chimeras to collect, all of which boast unique 
abilities to unleash in battle. The battles themselves are dice-based but 
arent driven by luck. According to the games Steam synopsis :  Dicefolk puts 
you in the driver's seat when it comes to the action. You decide the faces of 
the dice, giving you unprecedented influence over your chimeras' abilities 
and attacks. It's all up to you, and your tactical choices will determine 
your success in battle. 

On top of that, interestingly, youll also be given control of the enemys side 
of battle. A press release explains that all of this is intended to add a 
heightened level of strategy to fights. These mechanics can be seen in action 
in the latest trailer for Dicefolk , which you can watch below. 

The recent popularity of Pocketpairs survival-crafting game Palworld is a 
perfect example of the love gamers have for monster-collecting mechanics - 
itll be interesting to see how theyre utilized in tandem with Dicefolk s 
intriguing tactical innovations. If youre interested, you can wishlist 
Dicefolk on Steam now ahead of its launch, and there's a free demo to try 
out, too.
