If you haven’t had the chance to play PolyHero Dice, my son and I recommend it. We have the Warrior Set of this fun and fast game, and now there is a Kickstarter project for a Wizard Set. If you love your dice, it is fun to see how creative an artist can get and still make a practical piece for gaming. We enjoyed “rolling” the shields, gauntlets, swords, etc. The mechanics are easy to learn and start playing. The game itself is fast and has a good balance of luck and strategy. We especially like how there are three levels of play to make it as complicated/interesting as you want.
So what’s new with the Wizard Set? Perty, perty, perty dice! There are six really nice materials and colors to choose from. (Violet Storm with Lightening is my favorite!) These were selected from a previous poll. A seventh color will be added from an existing poll of backers right now. It’s also cheaper and ships worldwide at a discounted rate. The set is guaranteed to be available first to backers before hitting stores or conventions. And you get a spell-book with every set that isn’t available any other way. Pretty cool.

Rebecca Angel was one of those kids that put the dragon book on top of her pile in the hopes that someone would say, "Hey, I'm into that stuff too!" Alas, she had to wait until she was an adult to find fellow geeks. Luckily, she married one and their kids are too. A music teacher by day, Rebecca is also a lover of tea, science literacy, funky tights, RPGs, anime, manga, comics, fantasy books and movies.
