Follow up to my desperate quest to find more dice digital board games….

I’m probably late to the party and you surely know all this already but….you never know.
Looking for new digital (dice) boardgames I stumbled on an great platform…Tabletopia.
There a lot of games on both desktop Tabletopia and iOS version including some of my favorite or games I wanted to try (Under a falling sky, Too Many Bones, Roll Player with expansions…) but more importantly one of my fav little games, One Card Dungeon which is a brutal dice distilled dungeon crawler I love and which plays WONDERFULLY on iPhone in portrait mode.

Played countless of games already….if you’re in the mood try it.

Anyone else having trouble with TtA on iOS after the update? App won’t open, just force closes on me after the splash screen

Edit: fixed, had to delete and reinstall the app

There is a new app for Rogue Dungeon, a solo board game. I know nothing about it.

I’ve played a fair bit of the physical and steam version. It’s fun, but maddening if you’re not appreciative of luck being a fickle mistress. Sorta similar in ways to One Deck Dungeon.

This game is currently consuming most of my free time.

I see dice!!!

It’s definitely got em, and you’ll definitely learn to hate em.

Wish they’d make a digital version of Escape The Dark Castle/Sector.

Damn guys you make me spend so much money!!!

For my scifi dice fix I play (almost constantly) Deep Space D6 on my iPhone, trying to break 350 points (which is not trivial having to let scouts on their own way).

I wish they ported Doom Machine too.
And Tin Helm.

Both would be perfect on iPhone in potrarit mode imho.

Absolutely agree on Doom Machine and Tin Helm.
I think the dev of Doom Machine did make a digital game a long while back but it didn’t do well so they moved into physical games via GameCrafter instead.

Ah yep, their digital game was Missile Cards

There is a mobile version of Balatro coming; it just wasn’t ready at the launch of the PC/console versions.

Well, I’ll be buying that again then. Absolutely loving Balatro.

Found out this morning that I didn’t get into the Stone Age iOS beta, but also learned that the game is available for preorder on iOS/Android. $7.99, expected out March 28.

Doh, I just got that same rejection letter.

Solium Infernum Is available on Steam. Are more people interested?

Yup. Just wondering if I should buy it today or wait, since members of Qt3 and BF are already lobbying for MP games! It’s been a long time since I multiplayer’ed the original, so how can I not buy this one?

EDIT: Here’s a video from 2 days ago of the devs playing a 4P game:


Looks pretty slick!

Damn you for mentioning Deep Space D6, which I bought out of curiosity and is now eating a terrifying amount of time.

I scored 353 early on and I now realise that must have been an almost perfect run which I didn’t know to appreciate at the time and which mocks me at every game-over screen :expressionless:

LOL, sorry not sorry.
I’m trying to break 350 in hard mode (currently at 342, world record is 380).
Tha app is based on the base boardgame game (I think it’s even free pnp somewhere if you’re interested), the creator of the boardgame gave the rights to a fan to do the app. There are expansions for the boardgame with new ships (and different uses of the dice).

It’s surely a time sink.
