Each player begins with two identical dice and can gain more dice, in addition to upgrading their starting dice.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePlay is largely simultaneous. At the start of a round, all players roll their dice, with one player rolling the Fate die. If Winter appears on the Fate die, all players must pay 1 grain for each die they own, collecting a -2 point \"misery chip\" for each grain they can't pay. Players may then re-roll one die for free, and they can invest in re-roll and \"set a die\" tokens (that allow you to choose the die face result) for further control. If a re-rolled die shows a re-roll icon, you get the grain or power shown on the die, then re-roll it.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePlayers then resolve attacks, starting with any on the Fate die (that hit all players), then moving clockwise from that player, with a player's attack affecting only opponents. For each shield on a die, you can ignore one attack. Attacks can cost you grain, the use of a die rolled that turn, or the permanent use of a die face, with that face being replaced with a \"destroyed\" symbol.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYou then collect all the victory points (VPs), grain, and coins on your visible die faces, with coins being usable only this round to purchase re-roll tokens and set-a-die tokens, repair a destroyed die face (replacing the destroyed symbol with a face previously removed), buy a new die (which also costs two grain), and acquire upgrades, which each cost 2 coins. You can save at most 1 coin in your treasury for use in a future round. Die faces have 1, 2, or 4 dots on them, and to change from a 1 to a 4 in the same color — e.g., changing from a yellow face that earns 2 grain to one that earns 4 grain and 2 coins — costs three upgrades, whereas changing from a 1 to a 1 of a different color costs one upgrade.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIf during a round any player needs to use a 10 VP token, a -10 misery token, or a 10 grain token because all of the smaller value tokens have been used, then the game ends at the conclusion of that round; otherwise, the player with the Fate die passes it clockwise to the next player and a new round begins. When the game ends, players tally their points earned, both on the VP tokens and on the upgraded die faces, with 2-dot faces being worth 1 VP and 4-dot faces being worth 2 VP. Whoever has the most VPs wins.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWith 18 dice, more than 650 plastic die faces in 72 types, and 35 tiles that provide more than 320,000 unique starting set-ups and challenges, Dice Realms offers a lot of variety and replayability.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rio Grande Games","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39489678213171,"sku":"RIO563","price":79.62,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0274\/9631\/products\/pic4936106.jpg?v=1628803685","url":"https:\/\/www.vaibhavhospital.com\/products\/dice-realms","provider":"vaibhavhospital","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
