Patch Notes v1.2.0 - Endless Mode Update & New Hero: Warlock
This update features a new gameplay mode, where your Hero will keep going deeper into the dungeon after fighting the boss. Every boss fold will increase the level of elite-ness of the monsters you face. Making long-term beneficial item combos are very important if you want to stay alive in this mode.
Endless Mode will be unlocked for a Hero, if you complete it in at least in Easy Mode. And it also features a Steam Achievement, which you can get it by completing the 50th stage with every hero.
We wanted to make sure to add at least a new hero to play in this free content update. Warlock as a concept fits perfectly with Dice & Fold, and this hero also foreshadows the new mechanic we will use for our future Nemesis Update: Soul. Soul is a type of hero stat that you acquire by folding enemies. You gain a new Soul by folding a monster card. Soul Mechanic also adds a new dice type: Purple Dice. This can be dropped on your hero's Soul Slot to increase it, just like Gray and Red Dice.
Some heroes, in this case, Warlock skill use Soul to function: Warlock's skill is called Soul Eater, discards all your available souls and Rolls a dice for every 3 souls. Warlock Hero will especially be fun to play in the Endless mode ;)
With the update, Dice & Fold now features 2 additional bosses that you will have to beat. Fallen King & Nuckelavee. Fallen King, Turn End: Unfolds a random enemy of any rarity Nuckelavee, When a Slot is Completed: Damages you by 15
Additionally, to flatten the difficulty curve, we added some additional monsters to the game for specific monster tiers. These are mostly to balance the game, and hopefully fun to fold. Stone Knight,Turn End: Gains +2 Damage Gravedigger,Once Folded: Unfolds as Ghoul Solitary Knight,Once Folded: Heals your Hero by 4 Ghoul,Turn End: Gains +1 Damage
Let us know what you think about the new monster art :)
This update also adds around 20 new items & 5 new trinkets. You can see the details of these new items in the Codex section of your game. While the items focused on synergic and combo potential for their function, the new trinkets focus on heroes with Shields. Our goal was to balance the difficulty of the shield heroes with the new trinkets.
In this update, we solved a crazy amount of bugs and implemented some fallbacks to some issues that we are confident will make the game feel way more polished. We fixed the most common bugs and focused on fixing some niche interactions. It's a long list of fixes and you can track the bugs that we already solved or currently working on solving in this link:
- Stuck in Shop (unable to leave or progress forward) - Shop bug (Gold coins not dropping as item cards unfold) - Shop freezes while gold coins are dropping causes a soft lock; player is able to save and exit but rerolls the shop - Cannot choose items or re-roll (a Save and Quit, then Continue fixed the issue) - Golden whip to appear at earlier stage shops - Silver engraved cauldron not working as described (a varying amount of shields, still only get 10/20 silver coins) - Trinket issues (Select trinkets before the game, does not show up in the game; Pickled remains unable to use if player skips purchasing item in the first shop) - Player purchased a lot of items during the game but unable to scroll through the items on the victory screen

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.
Mechanics
The core mechanic of the game revolves around dice rolling. Players engage in combat by rolling a dice, with the outcome directly influencing the strength of their attacks. The higher the roll, the more damage inflicted on the enemies. Strategic depth is introduced through the need to carefully select which enemy to attack first, requiring players to drag and drop the dice onto the appropriate enemy card's dice slot.Each turn is a test of tactical acumen.
