Dirt and Glory is a board game released in 2024 for 2–5 players, 20–30 minutes per game, and ages 8 and up. It was designed by Petr Vojtěch and its main mechanics are Race, Push Your Luck, and Open Drafting.
Dirt and Glory is an adrenaline-pumping card game set in a post-apocalyptic world in which speed, tactics, and a bit of luck are the keys to success! Take on the role of a fearless leader, then race for dominance, guiding your convoy through the treacherous wasteland to claim the richest territories. Each round starts by revealing a location card, which gives players a target number they try to reach with their convoy as close as possible. Players can press their luck playing cards from their deck, and whoever gets closest to the target receives the best reward. Topping the target makes you bust, leaving you (almost) empty-handed. At the end of each round, a player chooses a new card with a unique ability to add to their deck. —description from the designer
Dirt and Glory supports 2–5 players according to the catalogue. This range comes from the publisher’s listed player count, so the game can be set up for any group size within it. Some setups, rules and scoring details may still vary by player count, so check your edition’s rulebook for the exact configuration.
The listed playing time for Dirt and Glory is 20–30 minutes. This is the publisher’s estimate for a full game. The actual duration depends on the group, the player count and familiarity with the rules: first sessions usually run longer, while experienced groups often finish faster. Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.
The catalogue lists Dirt and Glory for ages 8 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone. Younger players can often join with help from an adult, so check the age guidance on your edition and consider your group’s experience with board games.
Dirt and Glory has a complexity rating of 1.8 out of 5 from BoardGameGeek players, which makes it a light game. The rating reflects how much rules knowledge, planning and decision-making a typical game demands. Expect a longer first teach for heavier games, and use a preparation guide before game night.
