A reaction-driven racing game has goblins roll dice to move, trigger tile effects, and reach the finish before rivals. A pursuing magic stone crushes the last runners each round, so survival can also decide the winner.

Put yourself in the goblin runner's shoes and take part in a fun and exciting race. Only good reaction and agile mind will help you survive this dangerous race because a huge magic stone is rushing at your heels and will flatten anyone who gets in its way! Roll the dice to earn bonus points and become the fastest on the race track! Goblin Dice consists of a random number of rounds and continues until one of the players reaches the finish line – winning the game — or the stone flattens everyone except one player, with this final survivor being the winner. Every round, each player rolls two dice and uses any two of them to move or to activate the tile's special feature. Once all of the players have used their dice, the stone behind them moves and tries to smash the last runners. Players do not only move their goblins forward, but they can also activate special features of the tiles, complicating the game for their opponents.
