About the game

What you do in a play session

Get ready for a bone-rattling uprising with the 'Skeleton Skulls' mini-expansion for Dungeon Drop! If you thought the dungeons were already challenging, just wait to see what these new inhabitants bring. Initially, only a few skeletons will wander the corridors, but make no mistake: they have the potential to multiply rapidly, transforming into an undead horde ready to complicate the lives of even the bravest adventurers.

This small, yet impactful, addition to your 'Dungeon Drop' base game introduces a new layer of unpredictability and danger. The nine 8mm wooden skeleton cubes, with heat printing on two opposite faces, are more than mere adornments; they are catalysts for skeletal chaos. Accompanying the cubes is a clever rules card that also doubles as a thematic crypt, adding a touch of immersion and practicality. With 'Skeleton Skulls', your Dungeon Drop sessions will gain an extra dash of 'push your luck', where dungeon management and set collection become even more tense. Can you handle the infestation and emerge victorious, or will your heads (metaphorically, of course) roll?
