What the AI looks for in Dice Games
- Downtime
- Prefer games where everyone acts or scores on every roll. Waiting through other players' turns is the main weakness of dice games.
- Luck vs. decisions
- Look for meaningful choices after each roll, such as rerolls, which dice to keep or where to score. Pure luck gets boring for adults quickly.
- Refills
- Check whether replacement score pads are sold or whether the score sheets are printable. Pad-based games run out of sheets.
Brands that matter
- Gamewright: Qwixx and other short filler games.
- IELLO: King of Tokyo line.
- Steve Jackson Games: Zombie Dice, a light push-your-luck game.
What to avoid
- Novelty sets with poorly balanced dice or hard-to-read pips
