About the game

What you do in a play session

Ever wondered what would happen if the Avengers went head-to-head with the X-Men, but using dice instead of miniatures? That's exactly what happens in Marvel Dice Masters: Avengers vs. X-Men. Created by the minds behind Quarriors!, this game transforms an epic clash into a 'pool building' system. Basically, instead of building a deck, you're building a bag of dice. Each hero — from Captain America and Wolverine to Spider-Man — is represented by custom-tooled dice with icons that define their abilities and attacks.

The gameplay is straightforward yet strategic: you roll your dice to collect energy, recruit new heroes to your team (adding more dice to your bag), and, of course, unleash damage on your opponent. To keep things organized, each character has reference cards that explain exactly what each die symbol does. For those who want to dive deeper, booster packs offer alternative versions of these cards, allowing for a more refined team customization.

In addition to the heroes, there are basic action cards placed in the center of the table, which both players can purchase to gain tactical advantages. The ultimate goal? Reduce your opponent's life to zero. The starter set comes with everything you need to start the fight: 44 custom dice, 38 cards, two dice bags, and the core rulebook. It's the perfect game for those who love the adrenaline of dice rolling and a passion for Marvel comics, blending the luck of the roll with the strategy of recruitment.
