About Dice Throne
Often described to new players as "Yahtzee meets Magic: The Gathering", Dice Throne is a fast and strategic game of card play and dice manipulation for 2-6 Players.
Its variety, set up time, playtime, and addictive nature make it one of the easiest games in existence to get to the table. Dice Throne will be the workhorse of your game collection.
Dice Throne can be played as a 1vs1 dueling game, in teams, and yes even cooperatively with the upcoming Dice Throne Adventures. Dice Throne now features 16 heroes to choose from, each featuring wildly different aesthetics and play styles. Whether you buy a two-hero battle box from your local game store or a BattleChest, every hero you obtain is fully standalone and cross-compatible with all other Dice Throne heroes.
Since the initial release of Dice Throne Season One, our products have raised over $5,000,000 through Kickstarter and preorders.
There is a passionate team behind Dice Throne. Get to know them below.
Our values
Our team's vision is to continue to create balanced, innovative, beautiful Dice Throne heroes and new game modes far into the future. We pride ourselves on delivering an unparalleled level of quality and service.
Unlike other collectible games, we want you to purchase more Dice Throne heroes because you LOVE the game, not because you feel the game is missing something if you don't. It is our objective to ensure every box of Dice Throne feels COMPLETE.
What our team values above all else, is the unforgettable memories and positive connection Dice Throne will bring to your family, friends, and game group. If it already has, consider joining our ever-expanding group of fans in our Facebook community.
If you are new to Dice Throne and are wondering what to get first, consider Barbarian VS Moon Elf ($30 USD) or Season One: Battle Chest($94 USD).
