What to study

Each Dicey Dungeons character replaces the dice with a different randomiser, and the Robot's version is a second interface living inside the first: instead of a row of rolled dice it gets a coin-flip counter, flip coins, add their faces toward the printed target (here Target 2), and use the total as its roll, with the ever-present risk of flipping past it. The design economy is that nothing else changes: its equipment is still a stack of big cards with slots and one-line effects (Burn Rate burns an enemy die for 6 damage; Money Back Guarantee refunds a coin to the counter), so a player who learned the Warrior's board already knows how to read this one, only the shape of luck is new. The INNATE banner at the top ('Stereohead is weak to shock.') completes the lesson: even the enemy's trait is dealt onto the same board as a headline. Frame at about 0:04 in the Reunion Trailer (Steam; manual extraction from the 2 fps probe pass over the window 3–6s). The ENEMY MOVES label and INNATE banner are the game's own UI, not trailer overlays.

Screen inventory

• the grey panel at right is the Robot's CPU counter rendered as a coin-flip board: two coin rows (a face coin and a star coin) beside red counting squares, a 'Target 2' tab at the top and a wide FLIP button below, the Robot does not roll dice, it flips coins and adds their values toward the target, and overshooting is its built-in risk
• the Robot's equipment stack at left takes coins, not dice: BURN RATE has three circle slots with a star coin already sitting in the centre one ('Do 6 damage, Burn 1 dice'), and below it MONEY BACK GUARANTEE has one empty dashed circle ('Return a coin to the CPU counter'), the same equipment-card language as the Warrior's board, re-skinned for a different randomiser
• a black banner across the top states the enemy trait in plain words: 'INNATE: Stereohead is weak to shock.', next to the ENEMY MOVES label, the enemy's weakness is a headline, not a codex entry
• the Robot (a white die with X pips) sits bottom-left at 28/28 with its yellow FURY bar; Stereohead, a boombox-headed figure in a purple suit, sits top-right at 28/28 with a dice x2 counter; TURN 1 and END TURN anchor the corners
