From giving Even weapons, to creating time distortion fields, to just making a slew of bombs, the abilities on these cards range quite widely and make for some interesting combat.

Dicey starts out not being able to roll more than two thanks to being an incomplete die, but he gains the ability to roll higher over the course of the story. Whenever the player wishes during this process, Dicey can be thrown, and the resulting roll determines how many points they have to spend on card abilities. These crystals allow a hand of ability cards to slowly form, with a full hand constituting five total cards. It starts with Dicey absorbing crystals that fall off of enemies either as they die, or as Even shoots them off with her slingshot. The flow of each combat follows a distinct pattern, but what that leads to is always up to fate. Naturally, randomness plays a large role in the combat of Lost in Random thanks to the combination of a deck of ability cards and Dicey. These side missions tend to be no more than fetch quests or talk-a-thons, with the more complicated requiring some small amount of exploration, but they can offer some nice distractions from the critical path as well as some good rewards for players in the form of cards for battles or coins for shops. The game is mainly linear due to its story, but is structured so that each sequential district that Even visits in Random has its own hub areas to explore and sidequests that can be completed during that area’s storyline.

This quest takes the pair through each of Random’s six districts where they meet and help numerous other characters with their own problems as they desperately search for Odd in a traditional RPG narrative with several twists along the way. After setting out, Even finds herself a strange ally in the form of Dicey, a sentient Dice, who has the ability to grant Even magical powers by simply rolling him.

Lost in Random’s story follows Even, a young girl born into the lowest region of society in the Tim Burton-esque world of Random, Onecroft, on her quest to save her sister Odd.
