Roll Player is a $9.99 premium game with no in-app purchases. The price might feel high, but it’s much cheaper than the physical board game and just as fun.

About
Roll Player is a digital adaptation of a dice manipulation, strategy board game where you will compete to create the greatest fantasy character in the role-playing world!
Roll and draft dice to build up your character’s attributes!
Purchase weapons and armor to outfit your hero!
Gain skills and discover your hero’s traits to prepare them for their journey.
Earn Reputation Stars by constructing the perfect character. The player with the greatest Reputation wins the game and will surely triumph over whatever nefarious plot lies ahead!
At the beginning of the game, each player is assigned a random RPG class, alignment and a backstory. Through a series of puzzle-like dice manipulations, a player optimizes their character's attributes and attempts to maximize their alignment and backstory points. Earned gold is used to purchase various skills, traits, weapons and armor in the market phase of each turn. The game ends with a fully created character sheet of an RPG character and the player whose character has the most reputation points wins the game. The best character sheets are stored in the Hall of Heroes.

Critic reviews
- 7.5Roll Player’s music is calm and inoffensive, fitting the medieval-fantasy aesthetic well. In terms of art, it closely aligns with the music, as players will be enjoying shades of brown, parchment, and respectable character art. Of course, the game controls fine given that it’s a turn-based board game and everything clicks as it should. A real deal breaker with some board game adaptations is how easy the user interface is to work with, and the designers here nailed it, with only a slight quibble with reviewing what other players have done when they took their turn; a simple highlighting or light/dark motif would have done wonders here.
