Rory's Story Cubes Voyages
Just roll the dice and start with "Once upon a time..."
The cubes are, in effect, dice: chunky dice that feel good and solid in the hand and roll gratifyingly smoothly. This gives you a set of intriguing icons: say, a door, a cat, a rainbow and more. So, "Once upon a time, a cat came out of a door and saw a rainbow..."
This is an alternative starter set of nine cubes (in a square box) with 54 specially crafted icons emphasising travel. Originally designed for creative problem solving, they provide over 10 million combinations – that's a lot of stories.
As a game, you can score points for each icon used in your story or vote for the best story. Or tell one story, each player picking up where the last left off. The instructions provide lots of different ways of playing as well as other ways of using the cubes.
There are several base sets (nine cubes in a box) and I still have a few add-on sets of three cubes that add a particular flavour (dinosaurs, sports, science fiction and others): see my Rory's Story Cubes collection for the full set.
For 1-12 players, aged 8+, playing time 20 minutes
Rory's Story Cubes was designed by Rory O'Connor and this edition was published by The Creative Hub
