About the game
Dice Horde, is a solo tower defense roll-and-write where you lead the charge against a wild incursion of dice-headed beasts bursting through fresh rifts to crash your last bastion! Each round starts with a dice roll that sets the horde's march: those cube-headed critters pushing forward like they're late for a raid. The same roll hands you your defenses – quick battlements, quirky ward-towers, and gadgets thrown together by frantic engineers – all to keep the tide from flooding your stronghold. Enemies arrive as dice marching across your board, their pips driving the assault: higher numbers send them charging ahead fast-most of the time-slamming your nearest tower like a horde storming the gates. But you're in control! Chip away at their values with attacks to slow 'em down and knock 'em out. When a die drops to zero, it tumbles into the graveyard – your handy pile of shattered bits and odds and scraps. Collect those pieces to boost upgrades, spring sneaky traps, shore up barricades, or rally elite guards. Master the dice-tweaking tango against these rift-spilling fiends, and you could slam those portals shut. Mess it up? The Dice Horde overruns everything, turning your realm into a really big mess! Sharpen your pencil, shake those cubes, man the walls and defend your kingdom! —description from the publisher

The catalogue lists Dice Horde for ages 10 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone.
