10 Impossible Video Game Sub-Bosses That Stopped You DEAD

1. King Dice - Cuphead

King Dice serves as the penultimate boss of Cuphead. As you enter his Die House, the colossal gamesmaster will present a 15-space board game and a die numbered 1-3. When you roll the die, you will move the amount of spaces it displays.

Of these 15 spaces, nine of them will trigger a boss battle. If you land on the Number 3 of the die repeatedly, you can get through the board pretty quickly. Although its pretty easy to time the die so it lands on 3, you will still have to face at least three mini-bosses. The only way to get through Dice's domain is to painstakingly memorise each of their attack patterns.

If you land on the second-last space, you will be sent back to the start! If this happens, you don't have to redo boss battles you already won but it's still irritating.

Dice's only attack is sending out 12 cards that cover the entire lower screen. Although you can't dodge these cards, you can pass them unharmed by parry-jumping on the heart cards.

This is excruciatingly difficult to pull off but there's no other way to defeat this terrifying titan.
