Description
A little luck, a hint of bluff and some good tactics are necessary in order to become the town’s richest citizen.

Here is a quote from Bruno Faidutti's web site:
"Dice Town is a dice game, a risk taking and, in a way, a bidding game. Players roll their dice, and with each roll must keep one, rerolling the remaining ones, in a way more similar with Yahtzee than with poker. For one dollar, you can keep or reroll one more die. In the end, the player with the most 9s on his dice get the mine (and the gold), the player with the most 10s robs the bank, the player with the most Jacks controls the drugstore, full of item cards with fun effects, the player with the most Queens, or girls, controls the saloon, the player with the most Kings is sheriff, and receives both a useful gun and a shining star worth some victory points, and lastly the player with best poker hand can claim land plots depending on how many aces he has. Game ends when the gold mine is exhausted, and the players score points for gold, dollars, land, sheriff stars…. Highest score wins and becomes the first mayor of Dice Town.

Dice Town is Yahtzee on steroids. Like their former achievement, Mr Jack, it is typical both of Ludovic’s games, with strong humor, zany card effects and fun theme, and of Bruno’s games, with carefully balanced odds and critical choices. "
