YOU CAN PLAY THIS IN REAL LIFE!\r\n\r\nSecond time I made a tabletop game for the compo, but this time it isn't complicated out the ass!\r\n\r\nThis is a dice game for upwards of 2 players. The only limit is the number of dice you have, which is 10 per player.\r\n\r\nThe objective is to construct and grow a tower of dice to reach the tabletop heavens, home of our lord and savior RNGesus. To do this, players must place dice equal to the last digit of the sum of the two adjacent dice beneath it.\r\n\r\nEveryone places one dice at a time, or rolls a new one if they have no moves, until either one player has ran out of dice, no one is able to make a valid move, the tower is completed (almost impossible), or the tower is accidentally destroyed.\r\n\r\nMore in-depth rules can be found inside the TTS mod and in the Print & Play link.\r\n\r\nIF YOU DON'T WANT TO MAKE THE CUSTOM DICE, YOU CAN USE REGULAR D6'S AND PLAY THE GAME IN BASE 6 INSTEAD OF BASE 10!\r\n\r\nSpeaking of the custom dice, their faces were randomly generated so that of the 10 in the set, no two are the same and every digit from 0 to 9 shows up exactly 6 times.\r\n\r\n\r\nTL;DR It's kinda like UNO, but with dice.","title":"The Dice Tower of Babylon"}
