Summary
Habby goes ALL-IN on midcore… and removes ads
Today, we break down Dicero, the latest game from Habby — and honestly, it’s one of the most surprising strategy shifts we’ve seen in a while.
👉 No rewarded ads
👉 Deep midcore progression
👉 Heavy gacha monetization
👉 Roguelite dice gameplay inspired by Balatro
This is NOT the Habby we knew.
We cover:
🎲 Core gameplay (dice poker + roguelite systems)
💰 New monetization (subscriptions, gacha, no ads)
📉 Why removing rewarded ads might hurt scale
📊 Habby’s declining trends vs Survivor.io peak
🎯 UA challenges and creative direction
👉 This is a bold move. But is it the right one?
