Dice Throne Review – with Tom Vasel

Sound nice!. We are designers with a similar game from Argentina, we are trying to get it published 2018.
Héroes y dados.

This could work well with my Rum & Bones buddy. Could make for a nice little rematch after a long pirate battle… On to the radar with this one.

Would you call this a two player King of Tokyo?

Do the character trays work with card sleeves?

Played this at PAX unplugged. As soon as I played it I bought it. It's a lot of fun. Like mixing King of Tokyo and Magic The Gathering. Everyone I've played it with has loved it so far. Can't wait for expansions.

Oh man, this sounds SUPER cool… can't wait to pick it up. My only gripe is that I prefer Co-op all things told and like a solitaire mode when plausible, and it seems like it would have been very easy to put one in… then again, maybe that's an imminent expansion…

That giant hammer got me.. haha.. great stuff 😀

One of my greatest gaming memories. My first gencon was the last one and me and my buddy played this game with the developers!

I want a "Borderlands" version of Dice Throne. That is a character rich Universe where the characters all have varying fighting styles already established. I think it is a cant miss combination.

Where's the artwork on this thing? Looks like a prototype.

I can say that the characters that are in the future are far more complicated and add a new level play, yet they do keep the balance of the game. Playtesting the Artificer, Gunslinger, and Tactician, they are so cool. Can't wait for the Ghost Pirate!

I was really looking forward to your thoughts on this game. I have really enjoyed it. My kids love it and i can set them up in sets of 1v1. I have had a look at the expected characters in the expansion and they start to break the mould. Also the creators have been signed by a publisher so we can expect to see it in stores.

A lot more strategy than you'd think. Knowing how your hero works and knowing how your opponent works can definitely get you an edge.

OK, this seems nice but i have a question. Barbarian, Thief, Paladin etc. etc…..Elf ? What is this D&D 1st ed. where elf was a class and not a race ?

Great review, I just wished Tom had mentioned that you can use the cards to change your roles or your opponents dice roles. Thus I dreading the odds, so less chance and more strategy.

Looks like a better version of Battle Yahtzee.

Thanks for the great review Tom!! Sometime, you should try a 2v2 game. It is one of our core game modes and adds many layers of strategies between you and your partner 🙂

this seems another fighting dice game. King of Tokyo, Arena of the gods, Marvel dice masters, Star wars destiny dice. What makes this one better than Arena of the Gods or King of Tokyo?

Can't wait to see what Roxley and the creators do with this. The three new characters revealed so far look very interesting.

Yahtzee with stratagem I like it. How would you compare this one to Fantahzee? I need to get a good dice chucking game
