Here is an excerpt from Moves of the Diamond Head's Steam description:

Moves Of The Diamond Hand is a first-person narrative RPG. It's set to the backdrop of a surreal dystopian jazz-drenched city. It builds on the gameplay of Cosmo D’s previous game, the award-winning Betrayal At Club Low. At the same time, it returns to the first-person perspective of Cosmo D’s previous games. Its dice-driven gameplay is deeper, the plot is richer and the scope is grander than ever.

The Setup - A new day dawns in Off-Peak City. The legendary Circus X, an actual circus and artist crew of the highest caliber, is somehow back in town. And they’re ready to put on the show of a lifetime. You’ve arrived on the scene, ready to become a part of it and mint your destiny. But Circus X isn’t hiring, and there’s plenty of people who want a piece of the Circus X magic (and money). To become part of this elite crew, you’ll need to figure out a way in. Sure, you have some leads, but you also have trouble.

A Full Embrace of the Tabletop RPG Experience - Moves Of The Diamond Hand evokes the feel of a multi-session tabletop RPG experience. Your stats are all represented as dice. These dice offer opportunities for drama and strategy. Items are dice. Conditions are dice. Disguises are dice. These dice are all customizable in a myriad of different ways. Still, players have control over which dice to use, how to upgrade them and which ones they want to roll or keep close.

A Tight Narrative Full of Twists & Turns - The story unfolds over four chapters of dubby jazz noir mystery. And you, along with your dice, will determine how it all plays out, right up to the very end.
