Read the full game description

Quarriors! replaces a deck of cards with a bag of custom dice. Every player begins with the same twelve-die pool, draws six dice each turn, and rolls them to generate Quiddity, creatures, spells, and special effects. Quiddity captures new dice from the shared Quarry, while creature results may be summoned into the Ready Area by paying their level cost. Summoned creatures attack rival creatures and, if they survive until the next turn, score Glory before returning to the Used Pile. Spells bend combat, protect a key champion, or interrupt an opponent at exactly the wrong moment. Capturing powerful dice is tempting, but every purchase dilutes the chance of drawing the resources needed to summon them. Players may cull dice after scoring, gradually turning a clumsy starting bag into a focused engine. The changing card-and-dice display gives each session a different market of powers. The first player to reach the target Glory total wins, making Quarriors! a quick, noisy contest of probability, tactical timing, and bag construction.
