There’s an abundance of cutscenes that will have you feeling like you’re witnessing the next big hit animated film. There’s an impeccable attention to detail throughout that I really appreciated. Simply put, this twisted nightmarish world is an absolute delight. Anyone who has seen the game in action will draw comparisons to Tim Burton’s Nightmare Before Christmas, Corpse Bride and the dark fantasy film Coraline to name a few. The biggest and most obvious highlight of the game is the striking art style. There are a decent number of side quests that help to flesh out the world and its inhabitants. When Dicey and Even are exploring the Kingdom of Random, they meet various NPC’s. For instance, one of the cards turns Dicey into an explosive cube, while another allows players to place traps. There are five different types of cards (Weapon, Damage, Defence, Hazard, and Cheat), offering different gameplay advantages and combat abilities. During this period, players can select the card they want to use, which is the only way to deal damage to enemies. Once Dicey is fully fuelled, players can roll the dice and time will be temporarily stopped. While it does not damage enemies, opponents hit by her slingshot drop energy cubes which fuel Dicey. In combat, the player can use Even’s slingshot.

Along the way she meets Dicey, a sentient dice who has lost nearly all of its pips. Accompanied by an over watching narrator, Even journeys across the six realms of Random to rescue her sister. A six is rolled which means that Odd must live out the rest of her days alongside the wicked Queen of Random in Sixtopia.Įven refuses to let her sister go as she suspects that there might just be something sinister at play in the land of Random.

The pair attempt to avoid the dice rolling ceremony but are caught.

Set in the town of Onecroft, you play as a character called Even whose sister Odd is on the cusp of her twelfth birthday. The game is set in the Kingdom of Random where the fate of all individuals is decided by a cursed black dice when they reach the age of 12. Part of the EA Originals program, the game was released in 2021. Lost in Random is an action-adventure video game developed by Zoink and published by Electronic Arts.
