Hillside, NJ \u2013 December 18, 2018 \u2013\u00a0<\/strong>WizKids is pleased to announce the upcoming release of Thrown, a new trick taking game designed by Adam Porter, designer of the acclaimed\u00a0Pikoko.\u00a0<\/em>Adding dice into the traditional trick-taking formula,\u00a0Thrown\u00a0<\/em>puts a whole new spin on one of gaming\u2019s most popular and long-standing mechanics.
\n<\/a><\/p>\n

In\u00a0Thrown,\u00a0<\/em>players take on the roles of nobles vying for the throne after the death of the Monarch. Each round, players go around the table rolling 1-3 dice of a single color from their pool, attempting to roll the highest possible result. The chosen color for each round is referred to as the\u00a0trick color<\/strong>.Each color represents a different suit. If a player is unable to roll a die in the correct suit for that round, that player must attempt to trump by rolling a 6 on any other color die. The player who rolled the highest number wins the round unless another player successfully rolled a trump, in which case that player wins and receives 1 gold for each die rolled by every opponent.<\/p>\n

In addition to rolling dice, players have access to a communal set of cards in the center of the table, called the\u00a0Display.\u00a0<\/strong>These cards have an array of powers and abilities which can be used at various times during each round. For example, some cards, called\u00a0Discard Powers,<\/strong>\u00a0allow players to discard their dice in order to re-roll or access additional dice during their turn. Other cards, such as\u00a0Result Powers\u00a0<\/strong>and\u00a0Victory Powers,\u00a0<\/strong>may be used after your turn or at the end of the trick and can impact the result of the trick. The game ends after a number of rounds equal to the number of players, and the player with the highest total amount of gold is the winner, and becomes the kingdom\u2019s new Monarch!<\/p>\n

This new twist on trick-taking games turns this classic formula into a fresh, new experience. With 40 dice, 22 character cards, and limitless possibilities, this dice-rolling fantasy game will provide endless replayability for new and experienced gamers alike.\u201d Pre-order Thrown at your\u00a0Friendly Local Game Store<\/a>\u00a0today!<\/p>\n
