Dee-6: Dice Defenders

About

Dee-6: Dice Defenders turns dice rolls into spaceship survival. You manage a crew of six dice, each with roles tied to their rolled numbers, think laser fire, shield repair, or hull fixes. Threats hit from all sides: pirates, asteroids, and alien parasites force you to balance risk and resource management. Earn coins to hire mercenaries for dire moments, then face off against bosses in end-mission battles that test your tactical setup. Every decision hinges on probability and positioning, making luck both your ally and enemy. The game’s challenge shows in its achievements: 63 total, with 21% average completion. The rarest, "Marathon," sits at 0.4%, proof of the grind required for late-game success. While the dice mechanics feel familiar, the blend of turn-based strategy and chaotic threats carves out a niche. Fans of tense resource management and tactical randomness might find it rewarding, though the learning curve leans steep for newcomers.

Storyline

Dee-6: Dice Defenders is a tactical board game in which you will feel like the commander of a spaceship with a crew of 6 dice. Each die has its own role, depending on the value rolled on it (for example: shooting ship lasers, restoring shields, repairing the hull, healing wounded dice, etc.). You need to hold out under the onslaught of constantly arriving threats in order to successfully complete the flight. These threats can be external (pirate ships, asteroid fields, nebulae) and internal (boarding, spatial anomalies and even alien parasites!). You'll collect coins completing missions, which will allow to pay mercenary services to correct critical situations in your favor. At the end of each mission, you will have a fight with bosses with unique features.
