Dice Throne is a fast-paced 2-6 player combat game, whether 1v1, 2v2, 3v3, 2v2v2, or free-for-all. Select from a variety of heroes that play and feel completely distinct from one another. Attack opponents and activate abilities by rolling your hero's unique set of five dice. Accumulate combat points and spend them on cards that have a large range of effects, such as granting permanent hero upgrades, applying status effects, and manipulating dice directly whether yours, your teammate's, or even your opponent's. Each player needs their own hero dice and cards to play Dice Throne. "Season One" of the game was released in a single box that contains components for six heroes, while "Season Two" was released in four small sets that each contain components for two heroes as well as a "Battle Chest" that has these four small sets.
