Fans of The Witcher 3 might have missed the charm of Gwent—a card game introduced in 2015—but many reminisce about the original minigame, Dice Poker. Unlike Gwent, this game offered a straightforward, exciting chance to roll high-scoring hands with dice. While an official revival seems improbable, a newly announced roguelike, Dead Finger Dice, offers a macabre twist to the familiar gameplay, where players use their fingers as betting currency.

In this game, you are a captive aboard a luxury yacht ruled by sadistic, wealthy demons. You are forced into tumultuous matches of Dice Poker against evolving challenges, using your allotted rolls to create the best hands possible. Failure leads to dire consequences—losing a finger to the whims of your affluent captors!

In between your game runs, you can scour your prison cell for items that assist you in future games, even crafting unique dice from the digits you win from overcoming your demonic opponents. With its unique blend of horror, narrative, and dice mechanics, Dead Finger Dice aims to reinvent the classic Witcher mini-game while keeping the thrills and chills intact.
