November 13, 2009: Coming In March

Steve Jackson Games releases in March, 2010 . . . or maybe we should say "unleashes" . . .

Zombies and Cthulhu!

We've been working on these dice games very hard for the last couple of months . . . because they're super-fast to play, and play again, and play AGAIN. They really took over some of our playtest sessions, and now we're ready to share. ALSO, note the price and stock number on the first one . . . Why? Because we could.

Zombie Dice

Eat brains. Don't get shotgunned.

You are a zombie. You want braaains. More brains than any of your zombie buddies.

Zombie Dice is fast and easy for any zombie fan to learn, even non-gamers. The 13 custom dice are your victims. Push your luck to eat their brains, but stop rolling before the shotgun blasts end your turn!

3 to 8 can play. Each game takes 10 to 20 minutes, and can be taught in a single round.

13 custom dice, dice cup, and rules. Stock #131313, UPC 837654320419. $13.13.

Cthulhu Dice

Serving Cthulhu is fun . . . except for all those other cultists out to get you. So get them first!

Cthulhu Dice lets you drive your rivals mad . . . very, very quickly. Players take turns rolling the big, beautiful, custom 12-sided die, embossed with tentacles, Elder Signs, and more. Destroy your opponents' sanity! Better yet, steal it. But watch out for Cthulhu -- when he comes up, he takes sanity from everyone! The last sane cultist wins . . . unless everyone goes mad together. Then Cthulhu wins!

Cthulhu Dice plays in about 10 minutes, and is fun for 3 to 8 players.

One large custom die and rules. Stock #131315, UPC 837654320396. $4.99.
