Yu-Gi-Oh! Dungeon Dice Monsters: Difference between revisions

The game is played between 2 players, each taking the role of a Monster Lord (also known as Die Master) with the objective of defeating the other player by summoning (called "Dimensioning" in this game) monsters using dice. The game is played with specialized dice, which the players collect and build a "Dice Pool" from. Each die has special "Crests" printed on them, allwhich ofare themused havingfor certainvarious uses.aspects of the gameplay:

* '''Summon Crest''': Used to SummonDimension monsters.

* '''Movement Crest''': Used to move SummonedDimensioned monsters around the board.

* '''Attack Crest''': Used to declare attacks with Summoned monsters.

* '''Defense Crest''': Used to defend from attacksenemy towardmonsters' Summoned monstersattacks.

Each turn, the turn player rolls 3 dice. If they manage to rollland 2 or more Summon Crests in a single roll, they can SummonDimension a monster that matches the Level of the dice rolled. Other Crests rolled are stocked for later uses (Summon Crests can't be stored). When a monster is SummonedDimensioned, the player chooses how the Summoningsummoning die "unravels" to create a dungeon floor; in the Japanese version, the real-life dice are produced with similar build to the manga that can be opened up, while Internationalthe versionsEnglish useversion uses premade layouts of all possible floors to simplify the Summoning process. The player can later order the Summoning monster to move (by spending Movement Crests), attack (by spending Attack Crests) or use specific abilities that might use the Spell/Trap Crests.

Summoned monsterMonsters each have their own HP, ATK and DEF stats, while a Monster Lord always has 303 LP and 10 ATK (in the GBA version, Monster Lords has no ATK, and thus can't attack). Monster Lord loses 1 LP when attacked, regardless of the attacking monster's ATK. When a Monster Lord ran out of LP, the player who controls it loses. A player also loses if they're unable to perform any more summons on the play area. When a monster battles other monsters, the attacker deals damage to the enemy HP using its ATK stat. However, if the attacked player has Defense Crest stored, they can use it to defend from the attack;. In the GBA version, if the defending monster's DEF is higher than the attacking monster's ATK, the difference is subtracted from the attacking monster's HP.

The game was [[Defictionalization|defictionalized]] and marketed in the early 2000s, with starter sets and booster packs announced and produced. A GBA game was also produced, with slightly modified rules. Despite the initial hype however, the spin-off later became a huge flop and finally canceled rather early due to several reasons, such as the impracticality in production (making monster figurines are much more expensive to make than printedprinting cards) and the game being overshadowed by the Collectible Card Game.

Despite the fate of the game however, it still has a [[Cult Classic|small but loyal fanbase]] who still play the game to this day, and even [[House Rules|creating their on spinspins]] while at it.
