About the game
Looking for something fast, intense, and pocket-sized? D-Day Dice Pocket is your new obsession! This tiny box packs a punch by offering two distinct game modes that capture the chaotic energy of the Normandy landings through dice action. First up is 'D-Day Dice Battle!', a competitive push-your-luck showdown for any number of players. Your goal is to match enemy forces die by die, but it's not just about luck; winning medals allows you to influence your own rolls or throw a wrench in your opponent's plans. It's a fast-paced battle of wits and dice!

If you prefer teamwork, switch to 'D-Day Dice Express!'. This cooperative mode tasks 1 to 4 players with working together to storm the beaches of Normandy. As you progress through six different beaches, the conditions get tougher and the German defenses become more formidable. You'll need to rally specialists to succeed, but watch out for 'The Kommandant'—a special black die that adds a layer of unpredictability to the mission. The box is incredibly versatile, even including rules to integrate the grey dice into the original D-Day Dice game using the RWB system. It's the perfect way to experience a WWII wargame in a micro-format—quick, tense, and incredibly replayable!
