AXIOMA
Rate itA deterministic dice roguelite: place five dice a turn on a three-by-three grid, with one shared run a day ranked by turns.

AXIOMA is a turn-based dice roguelite in the browser where every die you roll must be placed, either in a matrix to attack or in boxes for Block and Bytes, and placement matters more than the roll. Each day the Global Threat Ledger gives everyone the same two addresses, one per league, and the leaderboard ranks players by how few turns they needed.
About AXIOMA
AXIOMA is a free browser game by latentfactor, published on itch.io in September 2026. It dresses a dice roguelite in a hacker-terminal look: you breach a run of 24 nodes, split into four sectors of six, and each sector ends with a boss you have to beat to go on.
Each turn you roll four six-sided dice and one eight-sided die, and every die has to go somewhere. Dice placed in the three-by-three matrix attack, and each one counts in both its row and its column, so pairs and trios along a line add up. Dice sent to Shield turn into Block that lasts only for that turn, and dice sent to Mine become Bytes that you keep and spend. Execute stays locked until your hand is empty, and nothing can be taken back once committed.
Between fights there is one shop with fourteen passive modules, all available from the first visit and dearer the more you own. Before a run you pick one of four payloads, such as Scrapper, whose trios form diagonally and splash damage onto other enemies. There are no ads or accounts, and nothing carries over from one run to the next.
The daily mode, the Global Threat Ledger, sets a six-character address and payload for everyone in two leagues, Sandbox and the harder Live, rolling over at 08:00 UTC. Because the game is deterministic, the same address always builds the same 24-node run, so the daily leaderboard compares players on a single measure: turns spent, fewest first. A Hunt mode lets you pick any address and payload to play on your own.
How to play AXIOMA
- Open the itch.io page, start the game and pick Enter the Threat on the main menu, then choose the Sandbox or Live tab for today's address.
- Each turn, roll four d6 and one d8.
- Place every die. Dice in the matrix attack along their row and column, and dice in the Shield or Mine boxes give Block for this turn or Bytes to keep.
- Press Execute once your hand is empty. Placements cannot be undone.
- Spend Bytes on modules at the shop and clear all 24 nodes in as few turns as you can to rank on the day's top 10.

Tips
- Think about lines before numbers: a die counts in its row and its column, so matching dice along a line pay off more than one high roll.
- Block expires at the end of the turn but Bytes do not, so mine when the incoming hit is small.
- Modules get more expensive the more you own, so pick the few that suit your payload.
- Use Hunt mode with today's address to practise before your ranked run, since the same address always builds the same run.
Questions
Is AXIOMA's daily run the same for everyone?
Yes. The Global Threat Ledger builds each day's addresses from the date, and the game is deterministic, so everybody gets the same run in each league.
What are Sandbox and Live?
They are the two daily leagues. Sandbox has standard hostiles and Live has full hostile density, and each has its own address and top 10 for the day.
When does the AXIOMA daily change?
The new addresses roll over at 08:00 UTC. The main menu shows a countdown to the next threat.
How is the daily leaderboard ranked?
By turns spent. The fewer turns you need to clear the run, the higher you rank.
Is AXIOMA free?
Yes. The web build is free to play in the browser with no ads and no account. Tips on itch.io are optional.

Pip My Dice
Closest match. Another dice roguelike with a daily run on a leaderboard, though here the rolls are scored as…

SpellRogue
Dice power the spells in this roguelike, and its seeded Daily Challenge gives everyone the same run.

Dice Player One
If dice-poker hands appeal more than a grid, this roguelike scores them and keeps a daily challenge…

Per Diem
Shorter by far: five dice once a day, charms to buy, then a place on the daily board.

Hoplite
No dice at all, yet the same careful turn-by-turn tactics drive its daily challenge.

One Dice Dungeon Delve
Strips the idea down to one six-sided die that settles every fight and drop.

A Mega Man X style roguelite, with one seeded run a day for everyone and a global leaderboard.
