Leaving Early Access: 2027

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Dice Ark is already playable from start to finish, but we chose Early Access so we can keep improving the balance and expanding the content based on player feedback.

Dice Ark blends a deckbuilding roguelite RPG with a cutthroat dungeon-crawling board game, and even a single new job or card can change how a game plays out.

We want to keep developing the game together with our community and make it as polished as it can be.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We currently plan for Early Access to last about 6–12 months.

During this period, we will use player feedback to refine the game into a more polished experience.

The length of Early Access may change depending on development progress and community requests.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“The Early Access version is already playable from start to finish.

For the full version, we plan to improve the game balance and add new jobs, cards, dungeons, events, monsters, bosses, and more.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The Early Access version lets you experience Dice Ark's core systems and content.

It supports solo play as well as local and online multiplayer for up to 4 players. It includes multiple jobs, cards, dungeons, events, monsters, and bosses, and can be played from start to finish.

Some features and content are still in development. We will keep improving the balance, fixing bugs, and adding new content.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“We currently have no plans to change the price during Early Access or after the full release.

To let as many players as possible enjoy Dice Ark, we plan to offer the Early Access and full versions at the same price.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“We actively welcome player feedback.

You can share your thoughts and report bugs in the Steam Community discussions and on social media.

We will use your feedback to guide balance adjustments, bug fixes, UI improvements, and new content.

We want to work with our community to make Dice Ark an even better game.”

About This Game

Luck of the dice. Reading the cards. No mercy for friends.

One to four explorers take on the dungeon known as the Ark. Roll the dice to advance, assign your rolls to cards to fight monsters, and fight over the crystals.

You'll join forces against the boss, but in the end only the explorer with the highest Total Assets wins. For board game fans, deckbuilding fans, and anyone who loves game night with friends.

Which card gets that roll?

In battle, you assign your rolled dice to weapon, armor, and skill cards. Spend a high roll on attack, or put it into armor to hold out? Your opponent's cards and their order stay hidden until you clash.

Build your own way to fight with jobs and cards

Steady Knights with weapons and armor, Thieves with poison and piercing attacks, Archers who power up their arrows before firing. Collect cards from level-ups, merchants, and chests, and find combos that mesh with your dice. Your entire deck is available in battle, so you never depend on a lucky draw.

Control crystals and build up Mana

Defeat a crystal to control it. Income and the tolls other explorers pay build up as savings. Control a whole area to double your income. But the more you save, the more other explorers will target you, and a raid can take your savings with it.

Raids, traps, and becoming a demon

Rob merchants, lay traps, and challenge other explorers to take their Mana or cards. But raiding makes you WANTED, shutting you out of shops, among other penalties. An explorer whose Mana stays negative turn after turn becomes a demon and fights back with a special deck and dice.

Join forces against the boss. Fight over the rewards.

Charge FATE with actions that suit your style, and save game-changers like dice manipulation for the crucial moment. After the set number of turns, everyone takes on the boss, and rewards are shared by contributions such as damage and healing. Finally, Mana, crystals, treasures, and Ark Deeds are added up to decide the rankings.

Solo or with friends

For 1–4 players. Take your time against COM opponents, or play with friends locally or in an online room. Choose Quick (18 turns), Standard (36 turns), or Long (66 turns).

The demo is available now

Play 18-turn Quick mode solo or with up to two local players. Unlock Knight, Thief, and Archer in order and try each job's playstyle. (The demo does not include online play.)

Gameplay Videos and Live Streaming

We welcome gameplay videos and live streams of both the demo and the full version of Dice Ark. You may also monetize your videos and streams.

We’d appreciate it if you included the game’s name and a link to its Steam store page in your video or stream description.
