Roll Through the Ages: The Bronze Age

In Roll Through the Ages, players roll dice to obtain commodities and workers to build up their civilizations. Dice can be rerolled twice unless they come up as a hazard. Players use their workers to build infrastructure to support additional works or to build monuments that are worth points. At the same time, commodities are gathered that allow your civilization to develop. Once all monuments or five developments are achieved by a player, the game ends at the end of the round, points are counted, and a victor is declared.

Very good dice game, involves quite a lot of thinking and planning-adaptation. Several ways to scores makes the game really varied. Components are certainly great, only complaint is my german version is really very big compared to the english one. One really good point is that this game is somehow a system, so that just by changing the playing sheet, you may play a "different" game (as they have done with Late Bronze Age). It surely involves some luck (it has dice, you know), but no lucky player will win if does not play properly. NOTE: I got the Spanish version so I traded the german one.

The game provides a huge amount of development possibilities in order to maximize our dice results and obtain the maximum number of Victory Points.

En breve: un juego de forzar tu suerte tirando dados con una temática de civilizaciones. Un Yahtzee con tema que une dos conceptos antagónicos: filler y juego de civilizaciones. Durante la partida, cada jugador va anotando sus elecciones en una hoja a tal efecto. Se tira 1d6 especial por cada ciudad (se comienza el juego con 3 ciudades = 3 dados) y se puede relanzar dos veces más, aunque los dados que muestren una calavera no podrán lanzarse de nuevo. Obtener una calavera únicamente no es dañina, pero más de una puede llegar a serlo, lo que se traduce en pérdidas de PV´s por lo general. El

Muy buen juego de dados. Por ahora el mejor de esta mecánica y estilo que he probado. Buenos componentes (aunque encarecen mucho la edición).
