Cubitos
Cubitos review
Cubitos has quickly become a favorite in our game group. It's a fast-paced, exciting race game with a fun push-your-luck mechanic. The core gameplay is simple: roll dice, use them to move your runner around the track, and buy new dice with special abilities. However, the real fun comes from the strategic decisions you make. Do you push your luck and roll again, hoping for a better result, or do you play it safe and settle for what you have? The different dice abilities and board setups provide a ton of replayability, and there are always new combos to discover.
Some reviewers have mentioned that the small cardboard boxes for storing the dice can be a bit of a pain, but I personally don't mind them. I like how they keep the dice organized, and they add a nice visual element to the game. If you're really concerned about it, you can always buy aftermarket packaging or just use a single bag for storage. I've also seen some people suggest using a single bowl for the dice during gameplay, which could be a good option if you're looking for a more streamlined experience.
Overall, I highly recommend Cubitos for anyone looking for a fun and engaging game with a lot of replayability. It's easy to learn, but there's enough depth to keep experienced gamers entertained. It's also a great choice for families, as it's accessible to players of all ages.
