It's not often that you see a lot of crossover between strategy games and RPGs. Perhaps both will involve turn-based combat, or may touch on similar themes. But new strategy game Drill Rift has gone for a different approach: shamelessly mining Baldur's Gate 3's dice rolling mechanic. Put your pitchfork away, I'm not suggesting that Baldur's Gate invented rolling—that was obviously James Workshop in 1983—but the presentation of the D20 mechanic is practically identical in the two games.
