Dice rolling in a game can be used for many things, randomness being the most obvious. Dice can also be used as counters. The dice themselves can be unique and different sizes, shapes and colors to represent different things.
Dice Rolling
Tile Placement games feature placing a piece to score VPs, with the amount often based on adjacent pieces or pieces in the same group/cluster, and keying off non-spatial properties like color, "feature completion", cluster size etc.
Tile Placement
Variable Player Powers is a mechanic that grants different abilities and/or paths to victory to the players.
Variable Player Powers
This mechanism requires players to select individual actions from a set of actions available to all players. Players generally select actions one-at-a-time and in turn order. There is usually(*) a limit on the number of times a single action may be taken. Actions are commonly selected by the placement of game pieces or tokens on the selected actions. Each player usually has a limited number of pieces with which to participate in the process.

Wow...I knew I would like this game while waiting for it ship from KS, but this game is really great, with so much replay value. It's already a classic for me I will never part with.

Played twice, not with the expansions. A good worker placement game with a communal tile-placement element that determines how everyone makes money. The money can be very tight and it's also how you earn points in the game since you have to convert money to points. It's an interesting friction. The player conflict in the game isn't too bad and there are way to mitigate the luck of the dice. It definitely makes the later rounds more spicy and allows for a lot of good table talk and interaction. The game is only 4 rounds and worker placement is pretty quick. The resolution phase and bookkeeping can be a little bit tedious, but nothing too bad. Overall a very enjoyable game.

City building mixed with worker placement, role selection and little bit of dice-based dueling. The ability to duel for spots and the sandbox of the board are its key aspects, as they allow for multiple strategic paths while providing a number of incentives for player interaction. The dueling isn't they only way the game injects player interaction either. You can disrupt a player's economy by buying certain parcels or by taking 1/2 of a building's income. This is a highly interactive game that can be played in a cut-throat style. Additionally, if you don't like dice, play with the might is right module and the randomness can be avoided. I could see the cut-throat nature of the game, and the resulting chaos of the duels, turning some people off from this game. The duels are almost optional at 2 players, but can't be avoided at higher play counts. Additionally, if you don't like the city-building aspects of this game (e.g., the road tiles, the parcel purchasing, and the cognitive load of remembering how each building generates income based on adjacency or ownership), you're much less likely to enjoy this game. At only 4 rounds, the game can play quickly, but this largely depends on the players involved. If people agonize over their decisions--and there's quite a bit to analyze--the game can get slow. Luckily, the turn structure and Caylus-style action space activation are attempts at keeping downtime to a minimum. The stacked tiles, meeples and roads can make the board a bit messy. Additionally, the management needed to ensure that a building's income is being accurately accounted for can be a bit of a pain. Meeple Realty insert Player aids from Kickstarter version
