What is Dice Town

Each player gets a cup with five poker dice and eight dollars. Each turn, a player will put together a poker hand and depending on the roll, take control of various key places in Dice Town that will allow him to perform the corresponding action of the location.

In a turn, all players shake their cup and take out all but one die, which is kept apart from the others. They repeat the process with the remaining dice until all five dice are on the table. Players may want to keep more than one die; they pay one dollar for each additional die.

Now the locations are checked...

Nines: In the gold mine, the player with the most 9's may take one nugget from the mine for each nine he has thrown.

Nice game which uses dice in a good way. You can bet to obtain different things, and can somehow control a bit your throws. Nicely thematic, good components, funny game.

Es un juego de mayorías a base de dados, ambientado en el oeste. Aquél que obtenga la mayoría en cada uno de los valores posibles del dado, ejerce la acción asociada a dicho valor (obtener pepitas de oro, atracar el banco, obtener cartas de general store, robar cartas a los oponentes, proclamarse sheriff). La mejor jugada se lleva cartas de propiedad. Aquellos que no hayan obtenido nada, pueden al final optar a una acción "de consolación". Las cartas aportan variaciones sobre las reglas que le dan vidilla al juego. LA partida continúa hasta que se agotan las pepitas o las propiedades. Gana el

Curiosete juego de dados. Para pasar el rato con no jugones y en veladas de 5 jugadores. No es mal recurso en esas circunstancias. Mejor que el pony express.
