She decides to follow the figure believing her sister to be in trouble. Through some underhanded trickery on the Queen’s part, Even’s older sister Odd rolls a six and is essentially kidnapped by the Queen to live in her palace.Īfter a year has passed, Even is awoken one night by a nightmare and a mysterious floating ghostly figure. This roll determines which of the six cities that child will live in. Upon the age of twelve, the children of Random roll the Queen’s black die. The world of Random is separated into six different cities, each with different traits associated with them.

Thus we get to the sibling pair of Even and Odd in the new world of Random. Though a stray attack kills the one friend and is lost in her grief, the remaining character, later turned The Queen, twists the world in her image and hides all knowledge of the dice, making it impossible for others to undo her new world. This is told to us from the very first scene of the game, where we are shown two young friends battling against monsters with their reality bending die companions. The story of Lost in Random at its core is a tale of loss for the major characters involved.

Let’s see if it managed to live up to the hype. If it isn’t clear that I am going into this Lost in Random review with high hopes, well that would be an understatement. The dark atmosphere of the world alongside a unique twist on dice roll combat, well, I couldn’t wait to get my hands on this game. When I first saw the trailer for Lost in Random I was already hooked. Regular readers will know that I love games with unique mechanics.
