About the game

What you do in a play session

Ever had that moment where you know exactly what you want to say, but the words just won's come out? Dicendo turns that-exact frustration into a hilarious-party-game-fueled-chaos! The concept is straightforward but brilliantly executed: you need to lead your team to guess as many words as possible, but there's a twist—the dice decide how much you can talk. By rolling the dice, you determine the exact number of words allowed for your-descriptions, forcing you to be incredibly creative or painfully concise.

With a timer ticking away, the pressure is on to keep the momentum going. It's a race against the clock where communication-limiting mechanics keep everyone on their toes. To spice things up, bonus rounds introduce word pairs, adding a layer of mental agility to the-chaos. Whether you are a word nerd or just someone who loves a good-laugh, Dicendo delivers a fast-paced-experience that works perfectly for large groups. It's easy to learn, quick to play, and guaranteed to spark some hilarious-misunderstandings among your friends!
