Each round, you confront one of the monstrous billionaires in a game of dice poker, and afterwards you can use rewards like fingers, bones, and cubes of flesh to craft new dice with special effects.<\/p>\n<p>The dice poker itself is disarmingly simple, once you get past the fact that you&#8217;re playing for fingers. You roll five dice, looking for hands like pairs, three of a kind, and full house. You get three rolls, and can hold some or all of your dice each time, as you seek a specific hand.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"van-image-figure inline-layout\" data-bordeaux-image-check >\n<div class='image-full-width-wrapper'>\n<div class='image-widthsetter' style=\"max-width:1920px;\">\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:56.25%;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"DffrkFjiBxxXJJVC2GQbtJ\" name=\"dead finger dice 5\" alt=\"Rolling the dice in Dead Finger Dice.\" src=\"https:\/\/arcader.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/ive-been-trapped-on-a-yacht-playing-dice-with-billionaires-for-two-hours-now-and-im-already-sick-of-chopping-off-my-own-fingers-1.jpg\" mos=\"\" align=\"middle\" fullscreen=\"1\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" attribution=\"\" endorsement=\"\" class=\"expandable\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption itemprop=\"caption description\" class=\" inline-layout\"><span class=\"credit\" itemprop=\"copyrightHolder\">(Image credit: Rocket Adrift Games)<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>There&#8217;s a degree of bluffing and bravado.

Special dice are hard to come by, and while their powers are good, they&#8217;re unreliable\u2014such as a 50% chance of increasing their value by one after rolling.

Never before have I had the thought &#8220;I&#8217;m sick of chopping off my own fingers&#8221;, but there&#8217;s a first time for everything.<\/p>\n<p>There is one really interesting twist: your cabin has a hiding place, where you can leave dice, crafting materials, and fingers that persist between runs.
