Description
Roll Player is a digital adaptation of a dice manipulation, strategy board game where you will compete to create the greatest fantasy character in the role-playing world!
Roll and draft dice to build up your character’s attributes!
Purchase weapons and armor to outfit your hero!
Gain skills and discover your hero’s traits to prepare them for their journey.
Earn Reputation Stars by constructing the perfect character. The player with the greatest Reputation wins the game and will surely triumph over whatever nefarious plot lies ahead!
At the beginning of the game, each player is assigned a random RPG class, alignment and a backstory. Through a series of puzzle-like dice manipulations, a player optimizes their character’s attributes and attempts to maximize their alignment and backstory points. Earned gold is used to purchase various skills, traits, weapons and armor in the market phase of each turn. The game ends with a fully created character sheet of an RPG character and the player whose character has the most reputation points wins the game. The best character sheets are stored in the Hall of Heroes.

Roll Player – The Board Game Reviews
We took a huge gamble in investing ten bucks in a D&D style dice game. Dice games tend to get boring. D&D Games has never been our thing. But this game is amazing. Through our first play through we were like Geez, we wasted lunch money on this? But as we kept playing we got a better understanding and we love it! Its a puzzle game first with character story to keep the dice mechanics more engaging. And the formula works! KUDOS! If your skeptical, play the tutorial and just play through a complete game even if you dont understand and are just going through the motions. One or two play throughs youll catch on and youll love it!
Really great implementation! Please tell us the expansions are coming! They would be an auto-buy!
Lol. Yes your games will disappear on occasion but don’t panic. They will soon reappear. It is unclear to us if your time to play continues to count down or not. We’re sure the company is working on fixing this problem as we and several of our friends have reported the problem. They make it very easy to contact them. We found the tutorial and playing vs the AI to be lacking in fun. So we thought we were not going to enjoy this game. That coupled with the odd premise for the game and we went into it with a very negative attitude. We were very happily surprised. When playing vs actual humans the game is a bunch of fun, and in order to win you can’t use a set formula. You must take advantage of what is offered you and use it well. Normally a bug like games disappearing and reappearing would cause us to lower our rating by one star until it got fixed, but we’re having so much fun playing this game that we think it deserves 5 stars even with that bug! Great game! We highly recommend it!
Our only quibble is that we want more of the expansions added here!
This is a really great digital version of the Roll Player board game. When we had first tried the physical board game we thought it was just OK, wasnt sure why everyone was saying it was so great. But that was a couple years ago, and now that we’ve played this digital version, we love the board game and want to go back to the physical version again. Just purchased the new expansion for the physical version. Im so into it now! This app is very relaxing to play, fine little puzzle, great music to go with it. It makes the gameplay of the board game just so smooth. We hope they add all of the expansions! We will definitely buy them.
Thank you for the amazing implementation of the board game. Its one of our groups favorites and we play the board game very often. We look forward to having online multiplayer soon.
We purchased this app recently as we have had the physical version of the game for a couple of years now. We didnt really play the board game a lot but since buying the app, we cant stop playing it! We’ve been having so much fun developing our different characters by drafting dice, purchasing traits, weapons, and skills. The dice mitigation in this game brings us back again and again as we try to make the best character possible. After playing this app for a week now, we purchased the first expansion of the physical game so that we can bring it out with our local game group. We can only hope they the expansion gets released for this app as well. Great fun!
This is a fun and relatively easy to understand game. The board game with expansions is always fun. Both expansions add quite a bit so adding them will make this game fantastic even if solo. The app delivers a very smooth experience and the ability to undo a phase before final confirm is excellent. Also love the preview option. Great UI. Please add multiplayer or bring this game to Board game arena.
Always wanted to play this one but could never rouse the group. Great game. Didnt experience a single negative thing about the game. Really hope they release online play soon.
A wonderful adaptation of one of the best board games of all time!
We hesitated for years to play the board game, erroneously thinking it wasnt up our alley, and the investment was too much. Then we saw the digital implementation was coming to iOS. This is our chance, we thought. At $10 its more than Id like to pay, but if you are in that same boatworry not. This is easily worth it. Not only do we love the game enough to go seek out the board game, but we also cant put the app down. Its so easy to hop in and play a game. The mechanics are engaging, the tutorial is perfect. Absolutely phenomenal work on this app. We are already excited to see the expansions make their way to digital!
Honestly we just regret buying it. We’ve been waiting for a dumb down version of d and d this is not it. Overly complex for no reason.
Its not bad but we regret the purchase. Its very overpriced for what it offers. We would pay 5$ for this game max. Replayability is fairly limited.
Enjoying this game for some quick turns throughout the day. Some of the UI is pretty poor. Clicking through unnecessary screens that describe whats happening in front of us over and over is fatiguing. Sometime special abilities that are active are actually hidden (Bard). Never hide info. Good UX isnt rocket science folks! Hand your game to users that haven’t played and see what goes wrong.
