Read the full game description

King of the Dice: The Board Game expands HABA’s dice-and-card formula into a shared territorial contest. Players roll up to three times to satisfy visible citizen cards, then use the recruited citizen’s ability to occupy landscape spaces, collect gems, displace rivals, or contain dragon fire. Collected cards can also be spent as matching jokers, creating a useful tension between immediate board position and future control over the dice. Connected territory and gems decide the winner.
