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. :)

Fantasy Tribes brings the strategy, chaos, and bragging rights of Survivor into two competitive game modes—plus community features and philanthropy—so you can play your way all season long. Fantasy Tribes (private leagues & public challenges) Build the ultimate roster and outplay your friends: Pick 2 MVPs, then draft your tribe in a randomized serpentine draft. Set weekly lineups by choosing which draft picks are Active and which one is Exiled (bench strategy matters). Make Edgic and Finale predictions when the pick windows open. Negotiate Tribe Swaps (trades) with value rules (MVPs vs. picks), and take calculated risks with weekly wagering. Watch out for season twists like the Grenade Rule—big stakes for early drafting decisions. Tribal Survival (app-wide competition) A faster, high-pressure way to prove your Survivor instincts: Each week, pick exactly half of the remaining cast (rounded down). If all your picks survive, you earn a win. Create up to three independent entries per season, each with its own record and picks. Use an Optional Opt-Out once per season (or it can auto-trigger if you miss a week). Climb the site-wide leaderboard, with competitive tiebreakers that reward consistency and game knowledge. Add the social layer: Groups, private leaderboards, and season-wide stats to track trends and performance. More than games Philanthropic voting that lets the community do some good while we play. Ongoing improvements, new features, and new game modes—with much more to come. If you love analyzing Survivor, predicting outcomes, and competing with friends (or the entire community), Fantasy Tribes is your new weekly ritual.
