Patch Notes v1.0.4 - Day 4 Update
Looking at the stats data, with yesterday's update, onboarding runs are way better at %70-50 beat ratio. We made smaller adjustments in this update to bring this close to 80%. We want the first 3 hero to be easier than usual since player still learns during these runs. If a player is a quick learner, or want more challenge, they can always play these heroes on Hard. Bosses: We had comments about some bosses being either too hard or too easy, this is also shown in the data. We listed the boss beat rates and made adjustments to the bosses in order to make them feel equally difficulty. See the updated boss stats, we will make additional changes as we see changes on the stats data:
Tho, the nature of the game, some heroes counter some bosses well (eg: Illusionist for king) To fight this, we are discussing ideas on letting the player choose which boss to fight, similar to choosing a companion. What do you think about this change, let me know in the comments. Companions: Some players stated that they always favor few companions over all of them. This is also shown in our stats data. Our main goal is to make you choose a companion that is synergic with your hero's skill. We made some balance changes on companion skills, their health and skill slots to make sure they are unified in terms of power. For example, now, Shopkeeper takes all your spare silver, Cook damages your hero by 2 upon using their skill. We also balanced all companion skill slots and health.
We now display the hero & companion rarities in the codex. Also added a note in game related to how the trinket drop logic happens. The rarity of the Hero you beat the boss determines the trinket rarity you will get.
Codex: In Codex, all elements now show their rarity, and all the elements are sorted by their rarity in game.
Here are some bugs we fixed in this patch; - Fixed some bugs related to high tier trinkets. - Fixed some bugs causing the game to soft lock.
Understandability of the in-game text is the 1st priority for us. We had a player get very upset about this and even wrote a negative review. We made the decision to use the word "dice" for both the plural and singular forms of the word. Both uses are generally accepted nowadays and the word "die" is confusing in the concept of our game, some lines get confusing as the word "die" also has another relatable meaning in our game. - A dice is a small cube which has between one and six spots or numbers on its sides, and which is used in games to provide random numbers. In old-fashioned English, 'dice' was used only as a plural form, and the singular was die, but now 'dice' is used as both the singular and the plural form.

(The form dice (used as plural and singular) is of much more frequent occurrence in gaming and related senses than the singular die.) [Oxford English Dictionary]

Hey Heroes! Another day, another Day X update from us. In this case it is Day 4 Update. We had some issues with cloud save system for cross platform saves. This should be fixed with this update, if you lost your progress on another device, launching the game once should sync your progress depending on your achievements and cross platform save should work with no issues after this point. We added Trinkets as dropable achievements. This adds 41 new achievements to already existing 40. If you already have bunch of trinkets, when you launch the game, you should get your trinket achievements instantly for those you already have now. We want to have tons of custom achievements in the future updates also, like "roll 20 dice in a roll".

Dice & Fold is a game that combines the strategic depth of turn-based dungeon crawlers with the thrill of chance inherent in dice games. Players unfold cards to face the creature cards and try to beat the card and fold it. Reminiscent of classic table-top RPGs, the game adds a simple layer of strategy.

Each turn is a test of tactical acumen. Players must strategize the best use of their dice rolls to maximize damage and control the battlefield, while also anticipating the counterattacks from monster cards at the end of each turn. The game offers a compelling risk-reward system, challenging players to balance aggressive tactics against the need for self-preservation.
Adding to the complexity, the game features five distinct classes, each with unique abilities and playstyles. This diversity allows for varied approaches to dungeon exploration and combat, encouraging replayability and experimentation.
Between dungeons, players have the opportunity to choose upgrades, similar to the mechanics in "Vampire Survivors." These upgrades range from enhancing dice rolls and bolstering class abilities to gaining new upgradeable cards that can turn the tide in challenging encounters.
If a player is defeated, the game doesn’t end in frustration. Instead, players are rewarded with meta upgrades and currencies that can be used to strengthen their character for subsequent runs. This progressive system ensures a continual sense of advancement and achievement, even in defeat.

The higher the roll, the more damage inflicted on the enemies.
