Cards meet dice.
Plans meet reality.
Think of your favorite TCG — the resource system, the card interactions, the combinations. Now imagine your resources are dice you have to roll to use. You can see exactly what you want to do. Whether the dice cooperate is another matter entirely.
There's no strategic depth here — there's the illusion of it. What you want to do and what you can actually pull off are frequently not the same thing. Sure, that combination would be devastating. Can you get lucky enough with your rolls to make it happen? And if you do, will your opponent have a card for it anyway?
The discard piles aren't just a graveyard — they're a live market. The top card in each color's discard sets that color's die value for everyone. Cards can be triggered in response to other cards, resolved in LIFO order. The Reserve area lets you hold cards ready to fire at any moment, on any player's turn. Every turn is a negotiation between what you planned and what the dice allow.
How to Play
Easy to learn. Hard to predict. Guaranteed to keep everyone guessing… including you.
Setup
Shuffle the deck. Deal 5 cards to each player. Each player receives 1 die matching a color in their hand. Remaining dice form the shared pool. Discard piles are sorted by color.
Roll Phase
Roll all your dice. Check for Priority Match cards first — those trigger before anything else. Then match dice against cards in your hand. No hand matches? Check the discard piles.
Action Phase
On a match, choose one: draw 1 random die from the pool (ends your turn), OR activate matched cards, move cards to/from your Reserve area. You cannot do both.
The Reserve
Hold up to 5 cards face-down with their matched die on top. Reserve cards can be triggered any time — even on other players' turns. At end-game scoring, the face value shown on each Reserved card adds on top of the shared discard pile total for that color.
Dice Values
During play, the top card of each color's discard pile sets that color's die value: 1–2 = Low, 3–4 = Mid, 5–6 = High. No discards of that color? Value is 0. Cards that target 'Low/Mid/High' use these fixed thresholds. Cards that target 'lowest' or 'highest' are relative to each player — if all your dice are valued at 6, your lowest and highest are both 6. If a color has no discards at all, that die's value is 0 for lowest/highest purposes too.
End of Game & Scoring
The game ends when the dice pool is empty, the deck runs out, or only one player still has dice — that player wins. In specific circumstances, no player may have any dice when the game ends — in that case, nobody wins. Yes, everyone can lose. For each color, add up the face values on every card in that color's discard pile — that's the base value per die of that color you hold. Add the face value of any Reserved cards of that color to your personal total. Multiply by your dice count in that color. Highest total wins.
9 Colors. 10 Dice Each.
Each color is themed chaos. Embrace the chaos.
Cyan
Chain cards — linger after play, passing boons or banes around the table
Green
Draw Dice — accelerate your resources, sometimes everyone benefits
Blue
Fair Wagers — balanced deals for activator and target alike
Black
Discard — strip dice from anyone, from one to all
Orange
Unfair Wagers — high risk, medium reward. You asked for this.
Pink
Swaps — you trade dice with a target. They're not getting the better end.
Purple
Chaos — the in-game equivalent of flipping the table
Red
Robbery — steal dice directly from players or the pool
Yellow
Unfair Swaps — sometimes it's not even a swap. It's a brief surrender.
The Bag Has Room for More
The base game bag holds 90 dice — but it's designed with extra room. Each expansion adds 30 more dice in new colors. The bag fills up. The chaos scales up. Will you collect them all?
How Long Will It Take?
Setup takes minutes. Games run at least 30 minutes — and the upper limit is genuinely open-ended. A sub-30-minute game requires a precise sequence of cards so unlikely it makes winning the lottery look like a reasonable plan. You won't know how long you're in for until you're already committed.

Chartreuse
Resurrection
"Nothing stays buried."
Chartreuse targets the discard piles themselves. Resurrect a card that should be gone, rearrange a discard pile to manipulate everyone's die values, or pull something back from the void at exactly the wrong moment for your opponents.
Rose
Reserve Disruption
"Not everything is rosy in your reserve."
Rose forces Reserve cards into play — yours or anyone else's. That countdown you were carefully managing? Triggered. That card you were saving for the perfect moment? Gone. Rose cannot target Transparent cards. Small mercy.
Transparent
Delayed Chaos
"You are not nearly as transparent as your motives."
Transparent cards cannot be played directly from hand — they must enter Reserve face-up with a countdown timer. When the timer hits zero, they fire automatically. Other players can see them coming and may attempt to disable or discard them. May attempt.
