In Martian Dice, you take on the role of a Martian with the most important mission: abduct as many Earthlings (and their livestock) as you can. Earth is under alien attack, and your task is to use thirteen custom dice to collect chickens, cows, and humans. But beware! The Earthlings won't go down without a fight. With each roll, you must first deal with any tanks that appear (representing resistance) and then choose what to abduct: more livestock or death rays to defend yourself. If you have enough death rays to neutralize the tanks, you can finally abduct the beings you've set aside. The goal is to be the first to complete your abduction quota, but stay sharp: collecting one of each type (chicken, cow, human) gives you a bonus! It's a fast-paced game, full of luck and tense decisions, perfect for those who enjoy a good 'push your luck' with a dash of sci-fi humor. Ideal for playing anywhere, as the included tube is super convenient for storage and transport. ## FAQ ### How many players can join? Theoretically, there's no limit! The game comes with 13 dice, but you can use more if you have enough friends. It's perfect for large groups! ### How long does a game take? Very quickly! Usually between 10 to 15 minutes, depending on how often luck smiles (or doesn't) upon you. ### Is this game difficult to learn? Not at all! The rules are super simple. You'll get the hang of it in less than 5 minutes and will be abducting Martians in no time. ### What comes in the box? You get 13 custom dice with fun icons, a tube to store everything, and the rules. Everything for your interplanetary mission! ### Who is this game best suited for? It's ideal for those who enjoy dice games, luck, and don't mind a bit of randomness. Perfect for parties, families, and anyone looking for something light and fun. ### Is there any strategy involved, or is it just luck? It's a bit of both! You need to decide when to stop rolling and what to abduct, but luck with the dice plays a big role. That's the fun of 'push your luck'! ## Price Comparison ### Best International Offers - **BoardGamePrices.com**: $ 9.47 (https://boardgameprices.com/item/go?source=A&storeitemid=150962&utm_source=boardgamesbot.com) - **BoardGamePrices.com**: $ 11.99 (https://boardgameprices.com/item/go?source=A&storeitemid=4886675&utm_source=boardgamesbot.com) - **BoardGamePrices.com**: $ 12.80 (https://boardgameprices.com/item/go?source=A&storeitemid=6423858&utm_source=boardgamesbot.com) - **BoardGamePrices.com**: $ 12.80 (https://boardgameprices.com/item/go?source=A&storeitemid=6487993&utm_source=boardgamesbot.com) - **BoardGamePrices.com**: $ 14.99 (https://boardgameprices.com/item/go?source=A&storeitemid=6589974&utm_source=boardgamesbot.com) - **BoardGamePrices.com**: $ 16.00 (https://boardgameprices.com/item/go?source=A&storeitemid=6430701&utm_source=boardgamesbot.com) - **BoardGamePrices.com**: $ 16.00 (https://boardgameprices.com/item/go?source=A&storeitemid=6457887&utm_source=boardgamesbot.com) - **BoardGamePrices.com**: $ 16.26 (https://boardgameprices.com/item/go?source=A&storeitemid=6915466&utm_source=boardgamesbot.com) - **BoardGamePrices.com**: $ 16.98 (https://boardgameprices.com/item/go?source=A&storeitemid=7021048&utm_source=boardgamesbot.com) - **BoardGamePrices.com**: $ 17.13 (https://boardgameprices.com/item/go?source=A&storeitemid=7160969&utm_source=boardgamesbot.com) - See all on BoardGamePrices: https://boardgameprices.com/item/show/887/martian-dice?utm_source=boardgamesbot.com
