In Roll, you have 2500 rolls to collect as many points as possible. Roll your dice to gain points, spend your points to upgrade your dice, and repeat. Borrowing gameplay elements from strategy, clicker, and roguelike deckbuilder genres, Roll creates a perfect balance of relaxation with critical thinking. While the "Clicker"/"Incremental" genre is not known for its variety or depth of game mechanics, Roll offers a unique dicebuilding system which allows you to explore different strategies and synergies between upgrades. Each run will present you with new and interesting decisions creating a huge depth of strategy and keeping the game feeling always fresh. Roll is designed to be a relaxing and meditative experience. Get lost in the satisfying sounds and effects as all your worries melt away. From the minimalistic UI to the slow peaceful music, everything was designed to create the perfect zen environment. If you enjoy building an engine and watching it grow, chasing down highscores, or just need to escape from your own thoughts, then I really hope you'll enjoy my game, Roll. :)

Embark on an epic journey through the world of Digs, a thrilling roguelike tower defense game that has evolved through six months of intensive community testing, receiving frequent updates and enhancements. We are excited to present Digs, a game like no other in its genre. Digs seamlessly blends dungeon exploration, mining, and tower defense into a unique gaming experience. As the commander of all enemy paths, your towers are not just for defense – they're also your key to shaping the battlefield. Procedurally generated mines await your exploration, brimming with valuable resources hidden within various blocks. To conquer the diverse challenges presented by different enemies and environments, you must strategically wield your arsenal. One of Digs' distinctive features is its innovative in-game economy. Say goodbye to traditional gold and embrace the use of action points. Every action you take generates noise, and when the noise counter hits zero, it's time to either send the wave or heed the wise wizard's counsel and make a hasty retreat, just as wizard once said, "Run, you fools!" Your actions are a precious resource, so manage them wisely, as they become increasingly vital in later waves. Utilize your basic towers for path creation, and enhance their capabilities with upgrade cards you discover during your journey. These cards hold the power to turn the tide in your favor, creating strategic chokepoints that thwart your foes. Customize your arsenal by building your deck with a wide array of upgrade cards, each offering unique abilities to tackle the diverse threats you'll face. Digs throws a variety of enemies with distinct behaviors your way, ensuring you'll need to adapt and revise your strategies continually. Just when you think you've found the perfect defense, a new adversary enters the scene, keeping you on your toes. However, fear not, as you'll have an arsenal of tools at your disposal to craft innovative strategies. With 17 diverse levels (and more to come), Digs introduces new challenges, from unfamiliar enemies to environmental hazards and disasters. Stay vigilant as you tackle these ever-evolving tests. For players of all styles, Digs offers four different game modes for each level. Whether you're in it for casual exploration, a heightened challenge, or endless battles, Digs caters to your preferences. Join our thriving Discord community to discuss ongoing updates, new features, and share your experiences with fellow Digs enthusiasts. Grab your pickaxe and get ready to dig deep into the world of Digs. Your journey awaits – keep digging!

Verdict

The call

Digs Premium's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and rating (5.0 vs 4.6). On ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Digs Premium holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Roll has 439 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 78% of Roll's written reviews are positive against 33% of Digs Premium's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Roll ships an update weekly, Digs Premium every 2 days. The most recent releases landed on October 14, 2026 and October 1, 2026 respectively.
