### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    The great board game designer and math professor walks you through dice games.
  

*by L***E on Reviewed in the United States on May 17, 2021*

This is a curious journey, more of a historical conversation piece. Each section is a quick outline of the core mechanic and the games that fall within that mechanical category. There's a brief section of the probability of outcomes, but I wish that was a little more exhaustive in explaining how to calculate the math, especially for creating dice mechanics yourself.

Reiner Knizia does it again!  If you enjoy table top games then you own it to yourself to pick-up and read this book cover to cover.Reiner Knizia is one of the premier card and board game designer in the western world today, and he delivers everything that one would expect and more in "Dice Games Properly Explained."The books chapters are: lucky scoring games, lucky counter games, the theory of dice, betting games, progression games, jeopardy games, category games, and bluffing games.In each of the games chapters, Reiner describes the basic genre and then gives workable examples of old favorites, lesser known, and new games.The games are described with just the right balance of brevity and completeness to allow you to play all the games without having the book be a 3,200 page tome.I highly recommend this book on any serious gamers bookshelf.In service,Rich[...]

    Amazing library of Dice Games
  

*by T***H on Reviewed in the United States on May 26, 2010*

Dr Reiner Knizia does not disappoint!This book is truly an amazing collection of dice games.As I read each game, I wanted to play each one.  I have children so therefore, the randomness of the dice has a great equalizing effect with adults.But it covers the gamut of games from pure randomness (Lucky Scoring, Lucky Counter Games) to some slight strategic plays ( Betting Games, Progression Games, Jeopardy Games, Category (Yahtzee)) to a fair amount of skill (Bluffing Games).He covers thoughts on dice and randomness as well as simple but engaging variants on the games.Really inspirational for playing around with the mechanics of all games.The only super-tiny-slight disappointment is there wasn't a category for a dice game like ButtonMen which merges planning as well as incorporating the range and probability of dice larger and smaller than the traditional d6.
