Lost in Random’s styling is unique and beautiful. Lost in Random has a normal and easy mode and lacks a hard difficulty setting, in that regard, it may lack the challenge that some players crave but overall the combat is nicely varied in its randomness and highly satisfying. Cards can be found, obtained as rewards or bought with currency that Even can collect by shooting her slingshot at hidden and tucked away ornaments.įailing or dying is quite a forgiving process and will simply restart the event or battle. There are a wide variety of cards, including ones that give extra card points, create obstacles, restore health and provide weapons and these must be used tactfully to successfully defeat opponents. Once Dicey is rolled, Even enters the Dicemention where time is paused, this allows players to take their time selecting which cards to play and resume combat by attacking a foe. Once 5 cards are drawn Even can roll Dicey, the number rolled represents card points that can be used to play certain cards, all of which have a point value.
At the start of a battle Even is equipped with just a slingshot which she must use to shoot crystals from enemies and collect them in order to ‘charge’ Dicey and draw cards from her deck, crystals can also be obtained by performing a well-timed block-dodge through an attacking enemy. The combat is one of the highlights of the game. There are also a number of side quests to be completed in each area meaning players are not short of things to do. The pair must progress through all of the realms in order to reach Odd, a dice roll matching the realms number will get them through the multiple sets of doors but Dicey is missing dots and so finding more becomes part of the questline. While the focus is on the latter two elements, they all tie into the narrative well and the range of elements and variety inherent within them make for an exciting gaming experience that stays fresh throughout.Įven’s adventure begins in Onetown and after meeting Dicey in the Valley of Dice they board a ship and end up in Twotown. There is a mix of genres utilised in Lost in Random such as exploration, stealth section, dialogue choices, questing and, of course, combat. Additionally, the quality voice acting really helps to bring the individual conversation to life. There is an eclectic range of characters, each with their own unique personalities and quirks. Lost in Random delivers its narrative via cutscenes, some narration during the gameplay itself and through dialogue. It is here she meets her six-sided and forbidden companion Dicey and together they embark on a rescue mission that will lead them across all six realms! In fear for her sister Even follows the signal out of town and into the eerie Valley of the Dice. Those lucky enough to roll a six would live in luxury in the queen’s realm, rolling a three would land the citizen in the chaotic Threedom, ravaged by civil war, anyone unlucky enough to role a one would lead a tough life in the destitute Onetown where the protagonist Even was born.Ī year after a dice roll cruelly separates Even from her older sister Odd, she receives a worrying signal. On their twelfth birthday, every citizen of Random must role the queen’s dice in order to determine in which of the realms they will live the remainder of their life creating a kind of randomised class system. The story takes place in the kingdom of Random, divided into six realms and ruled by a malevolent queen and her mysterious black dice. Lost in Random has a fantastic dystopian-fairytale narrative that was penned by award-winning Adventure Time and Marvel Comics The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl author Ryan North.
