WizKids Look To Steal Your Wallet With Marvel Dice Masters
March 21, 2014 by brennon
WizKids are essentially looking to drain your bank account dry (little by little) with the coming of Marvel Dice Masters. This is a game that has tweaked the Quarriors! format and now brings you a collectable dice game where you take on the roles of epic Marvel heroes like the X-Men and Avengers.
The game plays much like Quarriors! where you dig around for dice and then roll them to see what powers are on offer however it also makes things a lot more dynamic with attacks and card effects all blasting your opponent to bring down their health bar.
The game itself is going to be in a collectable format where you will buy boosters. Each booster comes with additional random dice and cards allowing you to build your teams. Thankfully each booster isn't going to be that expensive from what I've heard, so it should be fun to see how this takes off.
I know that from discussions last night at my local gaming store this has got lot of people very, very excited. I imagine this is going to explode, making a good connection between Marvel superheroes and the collectable fun of dice.
I've included a tutorial from Watch It Played above!
Does this sound like the game for you?

I like the idea for these types of games plus im a bit of a marvel geek so i went a bit weak at the knees. But for the love of THOR i nearly fell asleep watching this video, please someone else redo it
I can’t say I’m enamored of the collectable aspect of it. I don’t think I’m enough of a Marvel fan to bother. I’ll stick to to Quarriors for now.
If a DC version comes out, on the other hand…
The guys over at Dice Tower have done a tutorial/review for it that is much easier to watch. I think it looks great will definitely be getting the starter set anyway, the cool thing is that with wizkids different licences down the line you could easily have dc v marvel at some point. Or even star trek vs lotr! Maybe im getting a bit carried away :/
watched it, and this is one game that just does not appeal to me in the slightest and the watch it played video was indeed one of the many reasons why, as the chap sounds like the boring teacher who no matter what the subject he is teaching will make you think the subject is boring. (Unlike the teacher who will make the most boring subject the best subject).
