The most surprising part of this game is the accessories. As an American game, it does not use models, which is a popular existence. The main characters of the dice drive board games are only dice and chips. But the quality of the accessories of this game is shocking on another level. Almost all the accessories of the game do not use cardboard. All the cards are made of plastic. The battle field and the player board are made of neoprene. There is a hollow space for the player’s dice. Such quality of accessories is indeed justified by the relatively expensive price of the game.
Game Overview
In this dice drive board games, in addition to generating random numbers, dice also play the role of recorder. Each player’s player will have four basic attributes. Life, attack, defense, and agility. Characters with different attributes will have different basic attributes. And each attribute also has a dice to mark the changes of these attributes during the game. Each character will also have its own skill number, and each skill will have a corresponding dice. When the player obtains new skills through upgrading, he will get this dice. The content represented by each side of this dice is different, so there is a lot to understand when playing for the first time. Therefore, it is quite unfriendly to novices.
A round of the game is called a day. Each adventure has a time limit, and the specific number of days is related to the selected dictator card. Once the time limit is exceeded, the dictator escapes. The player loses the game.
The most important thing in each round is the encounter. Players use the encounter card to determine the content of the day’s adventure. Some events may lead to a fierce battle. And this battle will also give players upgrade points and loot to strengthen themselves. The most important content in the encounter is the progress points. These points are the progress of the player’s search for the dictator. When the progress points reach the requirements of the current dictator. Then defeating the dictator can become today’s encounter.
