Official Description

“

Cascade is a dice-based puzzler set in outer space, where your skill will be judged by wacky aliens. The best of them have invested weeks of meticulous programming into the creation of mind-boggling puzzles meant to disgrace you in front of their mutants friends. And they'll be constantly at their console, updating the code on the fly to compensete for your skill!

This challenging game will amuse you with its quirky aliens that welcome you with silly spoken lines such as, Oh no, a human! and May the dice be with you. It also features a competetive two player mode.

Hey! It takes cunning and quick thinking to blast through each successive level of Cascade! Complete all seven levels and you will be welcomed to the planet Cascadia. But what awaits you there: Fame? Fortune? The game's production credits? Only one way to find out...

Gameplay

In this game; players maneuver dice around a grid, trying to form numerical combinations that may then be "blasted" to progress against the current opponent. Clearing combinations that include starred dice, and/or clearing multiple sets of combinations, speeds up the progression. Opponents are defeated when the player's energy plug rises to the top of the screen. A competitive two-player mode is also offered.
