Dice rolling

This mechanic uses dice in order to determine the outcome of certain events. This mechanic can sometimes be the key element making up the entire game. In Machi Koro, players have cards with various numbers at the top of them. Each turn a player will roll dice and any card that matches that number activates for that player, often giving them different amounts of money depending on the card. While this is just one aspect of the game, in Zombie Dice players take three dice from a cup and roll them in order to score brains for points. However, they can also end up rolling shotgun blasts which can result in them losing their turn. In this game, rolling dice comprises the entire game.
