God Plays Dice

Done! Here's the new print-n-play game I created. You can find it here: God Plays Dice.  First 100 downloads are free. The second 100 cost double.




Of course the game titles paraphrases Einstein's famous quote. And indeed, there is a method to my madness. The game is about the Big Bang (and quantum things) and happens to require lots of dice. Here's the full write-up:

It is a millisecond second after the Big Bang. Now is your chance to guide the creation of particles, fundamental forces, and the physical laws of the rapidly expanding universe and use them to your advantage. Through judicious planning and aggressive maneuvering, you will be able to guide the creation of stars, solar systems, and even galaxies.
God Plays Dice is a micro-style game of managing and manipulating probabilities. By collecting and rolling dice you can gain control of cards that have special powers that allow you to better collect and roll dice, and to score victory points. Sometimes you will be at the mercy of the dice, but sometimes the other players will be at the mercy of you.

The game has been mentions in Chris Hansens excellent pnp blog. Check it out here.
