Read the full game description

Dice Wars is a 2-4 player tactics battleground with infinite replay value. Roll armies, shuffle the map, add new rules, play forever. In this fantasy tactics game of war, players expertly maneuver randomly-generated armies of giant polyhedral dice across an ever-changing hex-grid battlefield to outwit, outplay, and outlast their opponents. Roll your units, discover synergies on the fly, then deploy merciless combos to command your forces to victory! With hundreds of team compositions, hundreds of map layouts, a rotating set of bonus-granting cities to conquer, and seven optional gameplay challenges (including powerful magic relics, faction bonuses, and prestige units) to customize your gameplay experience, you'll never play the same game twice. —description from the publisher
