What's Your Favorite Dice Game?

Quarriorsdice

By Jeremiah Dice have been a part of gaming for... well I don't know how long, but let's just say when the average person thinks of gaming the image of a pair of d6's pops into their mind. And a d12 brings up images of a D&D session...

Some games use dice for dictating the outcome of a conflict or the value of a resource. Other games rely on the dice themselves to drive the gameplay.

Dice games have seen quite the resurgence lately, especially with games such as Quarriors and King of Tokyo becoming favorites of the industry. And this past year there have been quite a few Kickstarter campaigns for new and innovative dice games: Ninja Dice, Dungeon Dice, Dungeon Attack, and Dungeon Roll, just for starters. Not to mention real-time dice-rollers such as Space Cadets: Dice Duel.

Even our very own Firestone enjoys a good dice-roller every now and then, and we all know how he despises randomness and chaos! (Hey! I do no-- oh, wait, yeah I do.)

So the question we're asking today is: What's your favorite dice game?

You can choose one that uses dice in a small way, or one that's driven wholly by the dice, or whatever you want. Let us know, in the comments below! And as always: Thanks so much for reading!
