Deception Dice is the new dice game from designer Steve Maling. It is a variation of Liar’s Dice, with a few strategic twists. The game is for three to eight people, who each get five dice and a dice cup. Rolling one pip is wild, and the players bet and bluff as in Liar’s dice. Be careful, the one who loses a roll loses a die.
The game adds two big dice that can change the course of the game, changing direction or eliminating the wild.
It’s an elimination game, the last player with any dice left wins. The game is simple and short, and rumored to be a lot of fun. Steve created, produced, funded and is distributing the game himself.
This board game utilizes a vacuum formed, sturdy plastic game board with non-skid feet to protect the playing surface. Assembly of a few stickers will be required.
Game Contents include:
8 sets of multi-colored dice, 5 dice per set
8 colored-coded shaker cups
2 Custom Deception Dice with special indicators
1 Game board called the “pit”
You can pick up a copy for $39.99.
