About the game
Despite sounding like a dice game, Like Dice is a card game that uses no dice. Instead, most of the cards depict two dice of different colors on them; some of these cards will be placed in the center of the table, and others will lie in front of the players. Task cards will challenge players to find or name the largest red die and the smallest green, or say how many 5s are in play, or total the number of pips showing on blue dice. Whoever calls out the right solution gets a reward – but those who do score will have more dice to count, which might make it tougher for them to get to the solution first in later rounds... Like Dice includes a variant that allows children as young as six to play.

Questions and answers
Like Dice supports 2–6 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 Like Dice is 15 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 Like Dice 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.
Like Dice has a complexity rating of 2.0 out of 5 from BoardGameGeek players, which makes it a medium-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.
