Read the full game description

Rolling Realms gives every player the same two dice and asks them to find a better answer. Each round, choose three realm cards from eleven Stonemaier-inspired minigames. Over nine simultaneous turns, assign each die to a different realm, mark the dry-erase cards, and generate pumpkins, hearts, coins, and stars. Resources earned in one realm can improve opportunities in another, so the heart of the game is discovering combinations among three compact puzzles. After three rounds, the most stars win. Multiple copies can support virtually any group size, and an included minigolf mode provides a structured solo challenge.
