Who it's for

You like dice drafting with a dash of push-your-luck and want something quick with a fantasy theme. Good for a group that enjoys comparing combos.

Not for you if…

You want deep strategy or low luck. The roll sets the pool, so the dice always have a say.

Vibe's take

Fast, rattly and combo-hungry: you grab the dice that fit your plan, hope the next roll cooperates, and enjoy the little engine you assemble. Rounds fly by.

About this game

The dwarves have driven the dragons away once, and now the dragons are back. In Dice Miner, custom dice are rolled onto a mountain, and you play a dwarf hero drafting dice for your hoard. There are three rounds, with scores tallied after each, and then the dice are rerolled and the mountain refilled. The game is about grabbing the dice you covet, pushing your luck, and building big combos to score as many points as you can. Each dwarf has their own power, so a different hero changes how you play. One to four players, about thirty minutes.
