You made it: you’re finally the King! You sit content in your castle and look out over your wonderful kingdom. Green meadows, high mountains and clear rivers stretch as far as your eyes can see... but one thing is missing from your kingdom: citizens! Nobody's home. You're a king seating on a comfy throne with zero subjects to rule.
What do you do? You do what any desperate monarch would do. You start shouting about the merits of your kingdom to whoever wants to listen. Rich snobs, grumpy dwarves, crazy gnomes, orcs who just want a hug, fairies, sorcerer's apprentices, basically anyone with a pulse. The catch? The good citizens are not easily convinced. They want proof. They want dice. Your dice, because you are the King of the Dice!
On your turn you roll six dice, up to three times, keeping whatever you like between rolls. Land the combo a citizen card asks for, and they pack their bags and move in with you. Some want pairs, some want colors, some want a run of numbers, some just want you to roll low or high enough. Nail it and sometimes you even unlock a whole new village to go with your new neighbor. Miss? That's rough, but you don't have the time to sulk. You grab a penalty card instead, lose a citizen from the lineup, and move on with your dignity slightly dented.
It all wraps up the moment one piles runs dry. Then everyone counts their points, well we do, don’t worry about it, and the kingdom with the most points wins bragging rights.
King of the Dice is mean enough to make you yell at a six-sided die like it personally betrayed you. Which, let's be honest, it probably did.

We would like to thank Nils Nilsson, the game designer, and the good people from Habermaass GmbH & Co. KG, the publisher, for rolling the dice with us and letting us add their game to the platform. We are also glad that habermassdevelopment rolled this great BGA port: thank you!
This was your Wednesday release.
Remember that a kingdom is only as good as the dice that built it! Take care and pay fair…
骰子國王:你的王冠如此孤單,全是咎由自取!
你成功了:你終於當上國王了!你心滿意足地坐在城堡裡,眺望著你美麗的王國。綠色的草地、巍峨的高山和清澈的河流綿延至你的視線盡頭……但你的王國卻缺少一樣東西:子民!空無一人。你是坐在舒適王座上的國王,卻沒有一個臣民可以統治。
你會怎麼做?你會做任何一個走投無路的君主都會做的事。你會開始向所有願意聽的人大聲宣揚你王國的種種美德。富有的勢利眼、脾氣暴躁的矮人、瘋狂的地精、只想擁抱的半獸人、仙女、巫師學徒,基本上只要是活生生的,你都會聽。問題是?善良的臣民們可不是那麼容易被說服的。他們要證據。他們要骰子。你的骰子,因為你是骰子之王!
輪到你時,你可以擲六顆骰子,最多擲三次,每次擲骰之間你可以保留任何你想要的點數。如果擲出了居民卡要求的組合,他們就會收拾行囊搬來和你一起住。有些居民卡想要一對骰子,有些想要同色骰子,有些想要連續的數字,有些則只是希望你擲出的點數夠高或夠低。如果你擲出想要的組合,有時你甚至還能解鎖一個全新的村莊,和你的新鄰居一起生活。如果擲錯了呢?那可就糟了,但你沒時間悶悶不樂。你只能抽一張懲罰卡,失去一個居民,然後帶著些許尊嚴繼續前進。
當其中一個牌堆耗盡的瞬間, 遊戲就結束了。然後大家開始計算分數——好吧,其實是我們算的,別擔心——得分最高的王國將獲得盡情耀武揚威的權利。
骰子國王夠狠、夠壞,絕對能讓你氣得對一顆六面骰大吼大叫,彷彿它親自背叛了你一樣——而且說實話,它大概還真的背叛你了。

我們要感謝遊戲設計師 Nils Nilsson 以及發行商 Habermaass GmbH & Co. KG 的各位,感謝他們與我們攜手合作,讓我們得以將他們的遊戲添加到平台上。我們也十分感謝 habermassdevelopment 完成了這款出色的 BGA 移植版本:謝謝!
以上就是本週三發布的消息。
記住,一個王國的興衰,取決於建造它的骰子有多好!請謹慎並公平競爭…
