Evaluation
Die in the Dungeon: Origins is a free prologue/demo product for the main game "Die in the Dungeon." It launched on December 1, 2023, and served as a standalone preview while the full game was in development. The full game (Steam App ID 2026820) launched into Early Access on February 21, 2025, and then hit its 1.0 release on May 1, 2026, with substantial new content including a new character (Nera), a parry system, level progression, new bosses, and a true ending.
The Origins prologue is no longer purchasable — the store listing shows no purchase options available, which means it has been removed from the storefront. This is consistent with the typical lifecycle of a free demo/prologue: once the full game launches, the promotional prologue is often delisted. The game cannot currently be acquired through Steam.

About this game
Die in the Dungeon is a deck-building, turn-based roguelite where your deck is not made out of cards, but DICE!
In Die in the Dungeon, each dice represents a different action, from basic ones like attacking or healing to boosting other dice or copying their abilities.
Improve the quality of your dice, combine them and acquire powerful relics to defeat the monsters that dwell in the dungeon! Find great synergies by combining dice with unique abilities to create powerful and bizarre decks!
Decide how to proceed when faced with short events and be on the lookout for their juicy rewards:
Powerful artifacts called “relics” will help you create unique combinations, strengthening your dice even more! But watch out, some of them might be cursed!
Discover the Origins of Die in the Dungeon!
Play as Lisver - a new character whose story takes place in a supposedly safe and thoroughly explored dungeon, but something seems off here… Hold your ground while overcoming new and unexpected threats and make every dice roll count!
Various Battles and Dicey Enemies
Fight your way through hordes of monsters with increasing difficulty: facing enemies with unique mechanics and new special events. Go through a series of trials, defeat the great evil that lurks in the depths, and venture into the Endless Mode, the ultimate test of strategy.
Way of a Dice!
Collect dice, make them stronger with special properties, and craft the ultimate deck. All dice can be combined with powerful modifiers to reduce their energy cost (Hollow) or make them stay longer on the board (Heavy), among many others!
What fate awaits you within the dungeon walls? Face familiar foes, learn the truth about this endless cycle, and dare to step even farther with a brand-new game mode!
And the best part is, you're getting a massive amount of content completely for free!
