Dice Settlers

Dice Settlers is a game that really surprised me. It looks like a simple dice rolling game on the surface, but it's actually a deceptively deep strategy game with area control mechanics and resource management. You build dice pools to take actions, like exploring new lands, gathering resources, or developing technologies. Each turn, you choose your own path to victory.

I really enjoy the dice pool building mechanic and how it ties into the area control aspect of the game. It's very satisfying to build up your dice pool and use it to conquer new territories. The game has a lot of replayability because the board changes each time you play, and there are different technologies to choose from.

I've played this game with 2-4 players, and it works well at all player counts. I wouldn't recommend it for complete beginners to the hobby, but if you're looking for a fun and strategic game with a lot of replayability, Dice Settlers is definitely worth checking out.

I personally had a great experience with the game's quality. I agree with other reviewers that the components are high quality. The game plays in about 60-90 minutes, so it's a good length for a standard game night.

However, some reviewers have mentioned issues with the game's components, such as mold on the pieces and missing parts. While I personally haven't experienced these issues, it's worth noting that they have occurred for some players. It's also worth noting that there are conflicting reports about the customer service of the company, so it's best to exercise caution when ordering from them.

Overall, Dice Settlers is a very engaging and rewarding game. If you're looking for a dice rolling game with a twist, I highly recommend giving it a try.
