Dicequest rulebook draft and TTS mod


Hey 🫡

How was your start to 2026?
Did you play any cool games over the holidays?

I played a loooot of Onward and just last week not 1 but 2 games of Star Wars Rebellion -back-to-back-. Great times! (I won both.)

Anyway, we’re busy over here creating 4 games for this year and *most importantly* deliver each of them within 6 months from the crowdfunding.

First up is Dicequest, going live on January 27.

That's our lighthearted dice pool builder for 1-4 players ages 10+.

It looks like this:

If you have no idea whatsover about Dicequest... I’ve put some images from our Gamefound page in the P.S. (and I forgive you).

One of the thing I like the most about is is how easy to table it is.

It is crunchy enough that I want to play it even amongst hardcore gamers but also accessible to younger audiences. (E.g. my 9 year old kid.)
A bit like those good old Pixar movies...

Anyway, we just sent out the physical prototypes to two reviewers, so you should see their videos around launch day or shortly after.

In the meantime, if you want to see the rules or play the game yourself, the draft rulebook and the Tabletop Simulator mod just went live now.

You can play it solo, co-op or even try out the optional deck of "take that!" cards if you want to add a bit of a nasty zero-sum competitive spin to your session. Because, after all, our company name used to be PVP Geeks for a reason...

I hope you'll like Dicequest as much as we do!
I think Jochen Eisenhuth did a great job.
He is the same designer as Super Fantasy Brawl, by the way.

All right, that's all for this week.
I'll be back as we get closer to the Jan 27 launch.
Happy gaming,
Giacomo
