You’ve claimed the throne — now fill your kingdom. In King of the Dice, players compete to recruit gnomes, fairies, dwarves, and more by rolling the right dice combinations to match their cards. Make pairs, straights, or color matches to lure citizens into your realm. But watch out for scoundrels and dragons, or your thriving kingdom will crumble and someone else will wear the crown.

Players: 2–5. Playing time: 20–30 minutes. Made in Germany.

Why Families Love It

King of the Dice is quick to learn, fast to play, and just strategic enough to keep adults engaged while remaining accessible for kids. The fantasy kingdom theme and vibrantly illustrated cards give the game real visual appeal, and rotating goals drawn from the card deck mean no two games play out the same way.

Push-Your-Luck Gameplay

Like Yahtzee, players get up to three rolls per turn to optimize their dice results — but knowing when to stop is half the battle. Penalty cards add a layer of tension that keeps every player on their toes right up to the final round. Balancing risk and reward has never been this fun.
