Overview
FrankenDie is a fast-paced, reflex party game for the whole family! Combining the tactile nature of dice rolling, the excitement of a "first to buzz in" mechanism, and pattern recognition that is sure to exercise your brain, FrankenDie will bring your party or game-night to life! THEME: You are a Mad Scientist competing to assemble a Creature from serviceable body parts scavenged from the graveyard. Once your Creature has a "lightly used" head, body, two arms, two legs and the all-important brain, it's time to re-animate it with a charge of lightning and a cry of... "It's Aliiiiiive!" GAME PLAY: Players take turns rolling the dice and looking for a set to call out. For instance: "3 Brains!" But all players are competing to call out a set AND be the first to place a hand on the graveyard. If you're successful, you get to keep the body part you spotted. Assemble a full creature, then call out a set of lightning to bring it to life! Now, this is no walk in the graveyard. No sir. Because when you're a mad scientist, it can cost an arm and a leg to get a head. If you want to build the Creature of your dreams, you'll have to know when to make a mad dash to the graveyard, and when to wait out your trigger-happy, mistake prone colleagues. So get a head start, and show your friends that your genius is beyond compare.
