About the game
The Cell Games are on and the world's greatest fighters have gathered see if they have what it takes to defeat Cell, the perfect warrior. Teaming up to take him down, Goku, Gohan, Vegeta, Krillin, Trunks and Piccolo must strategize together to stop the supposedly unstoppable machine. In Dragon Ball Z: Perfect Cell, 2-4 players will each take control of an iconic Dragon Ball Z fighter and roll their dice to generate energy. Using custom icons, players allocate their dice into performing attacks, helping other players or buying upgrades. Players need to work together though, as Cell will continue to generate new threats that can heal him, damage all players or lock players out of potentially game-changing upgrades. —description from the publisher
