In Dice Realms, we get into the vibe of building and boosting our own medieval realm, but with a touch of Fate's unpredictability. The cool part here is that your realms are represented by special dice, whose faces can be swapped and improved. To make everything even more dynamic, each game starts differently: we draw five tiles from a bag, and they determine which extra die faces will appear, besides the five basic lines (victory points, grain, coins, defense, and upgrades). You start with two identical dice, but you can gain more and, of course, make your starting dice shine! The gameplay is almost entirely simultaneous, which speeds things up. Everyone rolls their dice, and a special player rolls the Fate die, which can mess with or help everyone. If 'Winter' comes up, prepare your wallet: one grain per die or a -2 point penalty for each grain you can't pay. Then, you can re-roll one die for free and use tokens you've already bought for more control. Attacks are resolved in sequence, starting with the Fate die, and each shield on your die saves you from one attack. Successful attacks can cost you grain, the use of a die, or even one of its faces! But relax, you collect points, grain, and coins to buy upgrades, tokens, and even a new die, expanding your territory. The big play is with the upgrades: with them, you transform simple die faces into resource and point-generating machines. You can specialize your dice and turn the game in your favor! The game ends when someone needs a 10 VP, -10 misery, or 10 grain token – meaning, when things get really tight. Whoever gathers the most points wins!
