Here’s a revised version of the automation. The lights variable is now simply a list instead of dict (thereby avoiding the complication caused by the Automation Editor’s quirk).

alias: dice controls
description: ""
trigger:
  - platform: mqtt
    topic: zigbee2mqtt/mydice1
condition:
  - "{{ action in actions }}"
action:
  - choose:
      - conditions: "{{ action in ['slide', 'fall'] }}"
        sequence:
          - service: light.turn_off
            target:
              entity_id: "{{ light if action == 'slide' else lights }}"
      - conditions: "{{ action == 'shake' }}"
        sequence:
          - service: light.turn_on
            target:
              entity_id: "{{ lights }}"
            data:
              brightness_pct: 100
    default:
      - service: light.turn_on
        target:
          entity_id: "{{ light }}"
        data:
          brightness_step_pct: "{{ bp.get(action, 50) }}"
variables:
  actions:
    - slide
    - tap
    - fall
    - shake
    - rotate_left
    - rotate_right
  action: "{{ trigger.payload_json.action }}"
  lights:
    - light.room0
    - light.room1
    - light.room2
    - light.room3
    - light.tradfri_bulb_22
    - light.room5
  light: "{{ lights[trigger.payload_json.side] | default(lights[0]) }}"
  bp:
    rotate_left: -10
    rotate_right: 25
mode: single

NOTE

If you’re interested, there’s an existing Blueprint for handling all of the cube’s actions:
