Dicemaster: Cities of Doom (1996)

About this game

Cities of Doom is the starter set for the Dicemaster collectable dice game. In Dicemaster, each player is an adventurer, battling monsters while searching for the six runes to complete his quest. Each player needs to have one set in order to play, and it is all that is required to play the full game, although expansions add variety.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Strictly 2 players — no more, no fewer.
• Rules load. At 1.7/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 12 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
