Roll Player is a board game set in a classic fantasy world, where you don’t take on the role of a hero on an adventure – instead, you create the hero. Players compete to build the best adventurer by choosing a race, class, background, and alignment. It simulates the part of RPG games (like Dungeons & Dragons) that takes place before the actual gameplay – character creation.
Each round, dice are rolled and placed on initiative cards. Players then choose a die and place it into one of six character attributes (Strength, Dexterity, Constitution …). Each attribute has a related action – when you place a die there, you can:
- change the value of the die,
- rearrange existing dice,
- perform a special bonus.
This gives a sense of control and reduces the influence of luck.
Players can purchase:
- weapons,
- armor,
- skills,
- traits.
All of these help optimize the final character and their scoring objectives.
Scoring objectives:
Each player has:
- a class (target attribute values),
- an alignment,
- a background (specific colors of dice in specific rows).
At the end, all objectives and bonuses are added up, and the hero with the highest score wins.
🛡️ Roll Player excites players because it truly feels like you are crafting your own perfect hero. 🗡️
