About the game
Masmorra de DADOS is a competitive dice-rolling fast-playing game. Each player controls an RPG-like character and they explore three levels of a dungeon filled with traditional monsters, traps, treasures and portals. By defeating the dungeon perils you gain treasure cards and XP to level up your character, gaining new class abilities. The game is full of dice that represent the characters, the monsters (big and regular) and actions. It uses a Yahtzee-style dice rolling mechanic and, with the symbols obtained, the player performs actions on their turn: exploring new rooms, fighting monsters, disarming traps, picking chests etc. Prove your worth as the most valuable hero by surviving and gaining the most XP.
