About this game

What this game is, in the developer's words

You owe the loan shark everything. Chain devastating combos, break the game wide open, and outsmart the odds. A roguelike deckbuilder where clever beats lucky. Pray it's enough.

CONTROL THE CHAOS This isn't a luck simulator. This is strategic dice manipulation. Throw 3 dice. Rotate each die to any visible face. Score to pay your debts.

BUILD YOUR PERFECT DICE After each roll, spend pips in the shop to upgrade your dice. Add new faces, craft synergies, and build something that probably shouldn't work — until it does. Every decision compounds. Every run feels different.

FACE THE LOAN SHARK Clear your debts and the shark himself shows up  and he doesn't play fair.

Boss rounds twist the rules with random modifiers

8 DICE SETS TO UNLOCK Each die isn't just a reskin. Different starting faces, unique passive abilities, and entirely new combo potential mean every unlocked die opens a fresh tactical rabbit hole.

 Over 100 Unique Dice Faces – Massive replay value with wildly different playstyles

 Rotate Dice to Control Your Luck – Skill-based strategy meets tactical decision-making

 7 Unlockable Dice – Each die transforms how you play

 Boss Rounds with Random Modifiers – Endless tactical challenges that keep you on your toes

 Endless Mode – Push your limits as difficulty scales infinitely

 15-30 Minute Runs – Perfect bite-sized roguelike sessions

 True Roguelike – No permanent upgrades, only pure skill progression

 Strategic Combo Crafting – Discover and build devastating synergies

 High Replayability – Every run feels fresh and unpredictable

NO SAFETY NETS. NO EXCUSES. No meta-progression. No permanent upgrades. Every run starts from zero and ends in either triumph or debt.

Build from blank dice to devastating combos in 10 rounds. Think you've figured it out? Endless Mode is waiting.

FOR FANS OF:

Strategic dice manipulation, roguelike deckbuilding, and tactical combo crafting. If you love controlling chaos and discovering powerful synergies, Payroll delivers skill-based strategy wrapped in addictive roguelike replayability.

Simple to learn. Impossible to master.

Throw. Rotate. Score. Shop. Survive.

Can you pay off the loan shark before he cashes in?
