Dice Tavern: One Throw of Fate is out on PC via Steam. As of September 12, 2026, 93 percent of 93 user reviews are positive, a Very Positive rating. The $9.99-equivalent launch price of 1200 yen (down from 1500 yen) was set at launch on September 8.
Dice Tavern moved from announcement to release in about five weeks. On August 6, 2026, developer Cavi Studio and publisher HARRISONWORLD were targeting a full release at the end of Q3 2026, with Steam Deck support confirmed and a free demo already available. By August 21, the date was fixed: September 8, 2026. The game adapts Farkle, the dice game from Kingdom Come: Deliverance, and draws inspiration from Balatro. A September 5 story added that the September 8 launch would happen at 10:00 AM and listed 35 dice types, 11 playable characters, 43 synergies, and 15 Decrees, with players challenging 30 opponents across six taverns.
The game's released title varies across coverage. Early stories called it A Throw of Fate and A Fatal Throw, while launch-day coverage used Fateful Throw and the September 12 story used One Throw of Fate, the name attached to the Steam release. Earlier stories also listed different counts for dice, characters, and rivals (23 special dice and 10 characters in August, 35 dice types and 11 characters in September). The publisher and developer stayed the same throughout: HARRISONWORLD and Cavi Studio, with PC and Steam Deck named as the platforms.
At launch, the game was priced at 1500 yen, with a sale cutting it to 1200 yen. On September 12, four days after release, the game had a Very Positive rating on Steam, with 93 percent of 93 user reviews positive. The build system, 35 dice types with different roll probabilities plus modification parts, coating, synergies, and badges, was the stated draw that had carried it to that rating.
