Hey Heroes! We are amazed by the reception of Dice & Fold. We sold almost 30,000 copies and we have a growing community on Discord for our new shiny game! Over 2,000 players completed all the heroes in the game, and some of them finished it in Hard mode for all heroes. We didn't want you to wait for a new update to get back into the game, so did some schedule changes on our 5 free updates. In light of this much attention from you, we are releasing our First update: "Extreme Mode Update" earlier than we planned to previously. (This update is extra, so it won't change the timeline of when the Endless update will be released)
Extreme Mode introduces the highest difficulty mode. This mode will be very hard, almost all enemies are Elite, and even harder dungeon curve than the hard mode. The bonus is, you will be able to use 3 trinket slots for all heroes while you play in this difficulty mode. So, having unlocked all trinkets and the strategy of choosing the right trinket for the right hero in Extreme mode will add an additional challenge to this mode. Extreme Difficulty will be playable once you beat the game with Savant.

Balance of the Game

We 6 previous updates focusing on the game's difficulty, and we made numerous changes in those updates to get the current curve of the difficulties. In this update, we made it so that you can't roll colored dice while Dungeon Master is present. What we noticed was that some heroes are prone to spamming Red Dice heals or Blue Dice skill completions. This change will prevent this cheese play-style.
Trinket Drops: Your hero can drop lower-tier trinkets if all current-tier trinkets are already dropped. Also, there were some trinkets that were not dropping, we fixed that. This will allow you to play your favorite legendary hero to potentially drop all the trinkets. Hard Mode: Now in hard mode, all heroes have at least 1 trinket. We noticed it is very hard to get a good run going with heroes that doesn't have any trinket slots, for example, Jack. This makes it more pleasant to play in hard mode with these heroes. Queen: She now has 1 trinket slot, we want her to be more approachable. Gladiator: Had a considerably low boss beat rate, and most players lose in the early stages, so we increased its health from 18 to 24.
