Dice Realms

To set up Dice Realms, sort all the various dice face tiles and tokens into their respective trays. Provide each player with a starting set of black and white dice, initial grain, coins, and a wealth tile. Place the fate die and various tile decks near the play area, and allocate specific tiles for two-player or multiplayer setups according to the rulebook.

The main objective of Dice Realms is to amass the highest number of victory points by the end of the game. Players achieve this by strategically upgrading their dice faces, acquiring new tiles, managing grain and coin resources, and fulfilling specific game conditions across multiple rounds.

Each round consists of four phases. First, players roll their dice simultaneously along with the fate die. Second, players resolve the fate die effects and any negative or positive consequences from their dice faces. Third, players collect their grain and coins based on their rolls. Finally, players can spend their resources to purchase new dice face tiles and upgrade their dice.

Scoring happens at the end of the game. Players sum up the victory points printed on the faces of all their dice, excluding the fate die. Each tile face with two pips is worth 1 point, and each with four pips is worth 2 points. The player with the highest total wins.

The game concludes at the end of a round when players need to take level-10 victory point tokens, grain tokens, or penalty tokens from the general supply and find that there are none left. This signals the final round, after which scoring takes place.
