Dice Throne is a game of intriguing dice, tactical card play, powerful heroes, and unique abilities.
It’s a fast-paced 2-6 player combat game (1v1, 2v2, 3v3, 2v2v2, or free-for-all). Select from a variety of heroes that play and feel completely distinct from one another. Attack opponents and activate abilities by rolling your hero’s unique set of five dice. Accumulate combat points and spend them on cards that have a large range of effects, such as granting permanent hero upgrades, applying status effects, and manipulating dice directly (yours, your teammate’s, or even your opponent’s).
Dice Throne: Season Two introduces a roster of new heroes and intriguing new matchups.
A stand alone game supporting 2 players. Additional heroes required to play with more than 2 players.

pretty fun however I feel like the game is a bit too long for what it is. I enjoy how different each character plays however just like a lot of dice games it can feel very imbalanced at times.

Very interesting match up with two unique characters. It was fun managing the Cursed Doubloon resource of the Cursed Pirate. It meant sometimes being more selective about which ability to use on a given turn. Strategically letting the Doubloons run out at the right time in order to flip to the undead side, which is more powerful, but takes damage every turn, was a nice little puzzle. The Artificer's three little bots were fun to use and it felt like each one was useful in its own way. One healed, one added extra damage to an attack, and the third caused damage based on one of the stackable negative status effects. This character too had an interesting resource management aspect with the Synth tokens.

An ok dice dueling game with some nice asymmetry in player abilities and upgrade paths. Ultimately comes down to luck with Yahtzee style mechanic. Prefer Shards of Infinity for short dueling and Favor of the Pharaoh for Yahtzee dice rolling.
