Overview
Horn & Dice is a dark folkloric roguelike that puts the fate of every battle in the hands of the dice. Developed and published by NookCrew, this turn-based strategy title blends deckbuilding, dice, and card battler mechanics into a single, tense package.
The game launched on October 15, 2026, and is currently available in English on Steam.
At its core, Horn & Dice is about making the most of what the dice give you. Each die face represents a unique combat action, so every roll opens up a different set of possibilities.
But luck is only the starting point — the game gives you tools to bend it in your favor.
Highlights
- Lock and reroll: Keep the faces you want, then reroll only the rest. This lets you chase specific outcomes without throwing away a good roll.
- Limited rerolls: Rerolls are a finite resource each turn, so you'll need to decide when to push your luck and when to settle.
- Upgrade and forge: Swap die faces to build the loadout you want, and enhance faces to add weight, making them land more predictably.
Who It's For
If you enjoy roguelikes that reward careful planning over pure reflexes, or if you like the idea of a card battler where dice replace cards, Horn & Dice should be on your radar. The game's dark folkloric setting adds atmosphere, but the real draw is the strategic depth of managing your dice pool.
It's a great fit for fans of turn-based combat and deckbuilding who want a fresh twist on randomness.
