Astrea: Six-Sided Oracles is a PC deckbuilder roguelike with a twist, your “deck” is made of dice. It sits in the same space as Slay the Spire style runs, but swaps card draws for roll management, so each turn is about probability, risk, and adapting to what you throw. If you like run based strategy games that reward planning but still leave room for chaos, this is the sort of system that keeps you thinking.
Who will enjoy dice deckbuilding more than cards?
Dice make your options feel less predictable, which can be brilliant if you enjoy salvaging a turn with clever sequencing, and frustrating if you want total control. Astrea leans into that tension, with builds that evolve as you pick up new dice faces and effects across a run.
- Dice as a deck, more swingy turns, more tactical mitigation
- Roguelike runs, repeated attempts with evolving builds and learning
- Strategy focus, planning around odds rather than fixed hands
