Description

  • DESS Is a simple and quick-to-play skirmish game that mixes tactical elements from games like chess with random units, determined by dice that players roll, re-roll, and set up in advantageous ways.

  • Each side of the included 6-sided dice represent a different unit with unique attack ranges and supporting moves. During your turn, players choose between moving a die or attacking within range- but be careful! If both die are of the same value, players will need to roll against one another to determine who loses their unit!

  • This game includes 4 white d6, 4 black d6, an instruction card, and 6 small boards with unique starting positions. This game was designed for entry in The Game Crafter's November 2023 Dice Mitigation challenge, and any consideration and criticism is appreciated!

Get ready to roll and battle your friends in Dess: Dice Skirmish!
