This is definitely a Marmite game.

I think you really need to be on the spectrum to truly appreciate it.

After 16 hours I barely managed to finish each of the 3 scenarios on the default settings with the DLC one being by far the most challenging.

Not entirely sure if this was due to any particular intelligent strategies I had developed or just the pure dump luck of the dice finally falling in my favour.

I think you could spend many more hours exploring the games deeper complexities on the harder challenges but I did not want to increase my autism any further then was necessary.

It is a fun new game to try. I personally hate RNG, especially they way this game does it. Each dice is used for different things in the game depending on the symbol. But what makes it bad is that you have nothing to use the symbols on at the start of the game. I cant use the sword, the compass, the dagger, the hammer about 80% of the time. I rolled 3 dice from 14 health to 0 just trying to get something i could use; THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE.

Combat rolls are not useful at the start of the game so, the compass is only used IF you have a Resource the needs it otherwise useless. Hammer is not used unless you want to build something and you don't always have something to build at the start of the game.
Sure i can make houses to spawn more dice but guess what you need. FOOD. and unless you have enough food RSS on the map you can not just waste your food on re-rolling over and over to get a roll you can use. Also just spawning dice is not going to help if you run out of RSS or food to use thing with.

As i said 1/6 change to get the roll you need might not seem that bad but when you have 6 or more dice that is a lot of food you need to generate. and Pray that RNG is not against you, otherwise you will roll a full health dice to 0 and never get what you want.

Dev suggestion, find a way to make every roll useful in the start of the game, even if it is only a minor benefit.

I need food, everything hinges on it, soooo nothing to do but reroll until I get the one face I need to operate my farms and mills...
Repeat for 30 minutes.

Nah I think I'm good
