About this game
Diception is a fast, minimalistic conquest game. Inspired by classics like Risk and DiceWars , it features quick turn-based matches, an extensive campaign, a built-in editor, and local multiplayer for up to 8 players. By replacing the classic isometric view with an optimized 2D Grid View , the game offers seamless Mouse, Keyboard, and Gamepad support for a lightning-fast experience. Key Features: Diception uses a clean 2D matrix with 4-way connections. This enables lightning-fast WASD and D-Pad controls , allowing for rapid-fire gameplay without sacrificing strategic depth. Battle up to 8 players in local multiplayer (Gamepads supported). Thanks to Steam Remote Play Together , your friends can join the fun online even if they don't own the game! Choose from 3 different speed modes. Whether you want to analyze every move or "blitz" through territories in milliseconds, the choice is yours. Why settle for six sides? Or try parallel turns for maximum chaos. Adjust win conditions, start settings and supply rules to create your own unique way to play. Handcrafted levels with various settings are waiting for you. Open Source & Community Diception is a passion project built on transparency. We believe that game logic should be open for everyone to study. That’s why the core engine of Diception is Open Source . You can check out the code, see how the probability engine works, or even contribute. Full Version vs. Demo The free demo offers a balanced 1vs2 bot setup on a medium-sized map. This specific configuration is one of the most fun ways to play and will remain free forever! By purchasing the full version, you unlock: The complete campaign . Bigger Maps and Bots with higher difficulty. Local Multiplayer for up to 8 players (supports Gamepads and Mobile Phones as input). Mods: Parallel turns, special attack/win rules, custom dice sides, and turn limits. Steam-exclusive features: Cloud Saves, Achievements, and Remote Play Together.
