Dice play a crucial role inCitizen Sleeper 2, much like its predecessor. However, a new mechanic that might confuse newcomers is the “dice break” feature, which removes a die’s slot from your inventory until it’s repaired. This can be a major setback in high-risk missions where every roll counts, forcing you to navigate challenges with fewer chances.
The good news is that repairing broken dice inCitizen Sleeper 2isn’t too complicated. And this guide covers everything you need to know about the mechanic.

Ending the Cycle won’t replenish the broken die. You will need to fix the die to gain that slot back.
How to Repair Broken Dice
To repair a broken die, you’ll need tospend Scrap or Rare Components at the Rig’s Workshop. This Workshop becomes available once you reach Far Spindle—the game’s second area—and speak with Bliss. After meeting these requirements, you’re able to use the Rig’s menu to restore broken dice.
