Quarriors!


(Basically, it's a Dice Building Game)
-Some Lawyer Guy


WizKids has just released their new game of uber strategic hexahedron monster combat mayhem. Well, dice game for short.

Quarriors! works like most deck-building games, specifically I find it plays a lot like Ascension and Nightfall; the only difference is instead of shuffling a deck, you shake a dice bag.

Drawing six dice per turn, the dice add an additional randomness to the game. That means the dragon die that you just paid for, may only add to your quiddity pool (quiddity is the currency of Quarriors! used to buy additional dice and summon creatures)

Added cards mean that your dice act differently and cost different with every play.

Included are four colored dice bags, which match the four colored glory markers, along with a glory tracker that marks victory levels for 2, 3, and 4 players. The collectible tin is an exact replica of a dragon die. Not sure how 'collectible' that is, but hopefully we'll see some expansion tins in the future.

Unfortunately, my set had some misprinted dice, although another set in the same shipment was perfect. I'm confident WizKids will make sure my problem is solved, or else I'm sure you'll hear about it here.

Great game, and great replayability!
