About Odds Chronicles
Odds Chronicles is a tactical roguelite RPG that hinges on dice rolls to shape both combat and character progression. Developed by Team Mojo Games and released on December 31 2026 it blends grid-based strategy with probabilistic decision-making. You guide a hero through procedurally generated maps where each dice result determines movement ability use and narrative branching. The game’s indie sensibilities mix with deep tactical gameplay inspired by classic tabletop RPGs. With a focus on single-player campaigns it offers a mix of combat exploration and story choices that change based on luck and strategy. Think of it as a board game brought to life with pixel art and permadeath stakes.
Gameplay
Combat unfolds on a hex-grid where dice rolls dictate your hero’s actions. Each turn you assign dice to movement attacks or skill checks with outcomes varying based on rolled values. High rolls let you reposition or land critical hits while lows might force you to wait or take damage. Between battles you navigate a branching path system where dice choices unlock gear or dialogue options. The single-player mode emphasizes resource management, every decision impacts long-term viability. Controls are straightforward but mastering when to conserve dice for tough fights takes time. Sessions last 30, 60 minutes with longer campaigns spanning dozens of runs. The challenge lies in adapting to randomness while optimizing limited strategic options.
What Players Think
Community ratings average 8.3/10 with 32% completing the main story. Players log 15 hours on average though 47% quit before beating the game. Moods are split: 24% Frustrated over RNG dependency 18% Curious about branching paths and 12% Nostalgic for tabletop vibes. One fan wrote “Dice rolls feel fair once you learn probabilities” while a critic noted “Combat slows to a crawl mid-game.” Achievement completion sits at 68% with 45 total awards. 61% of players who own it say it’s “worth the price” despite a $29.99 tag. The game’s polarizing, loved by tacticians but alienating to those who dislike luck-based systems.
PlayPile's Take
Odds Chronicles rewards patience and tactical thinking but demands a high tolerance for randomness. At $29.99 it’s a mid-tier buy for fans of deep grid-based strategy and roguelike mechanics. The 45 achievements offer solid replay value but completion’s tough without mastering dice economics. Skip if you prefer linear RPGs or get frustrated by chance-driven outcomes. For those who enjoy balancing risk versus reward and don’t mind grinding through early-game setbacks it’s a niche gem. The community’s divided but the game’s complexity makes it a worthwhile challenge for dedicated players.
