Ice Dice

As you may have gathered from other reviews, this is more than just a game. This is a set of pieces with which you can play a whole host of unique and clever games. Some, such as the titular "IceDice", are lighter, push-your-luck dice games but they range all the way up to pure strategy, zero-luck, chess-like games (including the legendary "Homeworlds"; a true space chess). You can easily find the rules for these other games online. Just google "Looney Pyramid Games" or "Icehouse Games". Many games require multiple sets of pieces (called "stashes"). Currently IceDice is the most economical way to acquire 2 stashes. Few people have ever regretted discovering these little, multicolored, pyramid shaped gems. Good luck and have fun!

A the time of this review, this is probably the most economic way to buy Looney pyramids. There are a decent amount of games to play with two sets, with or without the dice, and the carry case can accommodate another stash and Martian coasters, if needed. For more games than not, it's good fun, if not a little far on the random chance side.

I like the one game that we've been able to play with this "kit". While there are other games described on the website, each seems to require different pieces, like a unique game board or a custom die. I'm thinking this is a gimmick to get you to buy $100 worth of stuff one piece at a time.

This game is great fun, and you can reuse the same piece for more than a dozen other published games, and hundreds of fan created games.[...]Very durable & colorful pieces. Games vary from quick, fun, & simple (Icetowers, Pharaoh). To highly strategic and thought inducing (Volcano, Homeworlds, Zark City).The Icedice bag comes with 30 pyramids, but can hold up to 75. So if you wish to expand to play games requiring more pieces/players, they fit right in!

Great game pieces for any sort of table/board game. This is the cheapest way to get the standard 5 Looney pyramid colors. The bag and dice are a nice bonus. The same dice are used in many other Looney games, and are versatile design tools in and of themselves. I find the pyramids useful not only for Looney games but for recording player stats and abilities in various games without having to use pen/paper. They're satisfying to play with as well, a rarity in such lightweight game pieces.

Fun bunch of games that you can play with them. Lots of other uses as well if you have enough of them

Its simple to play and super fun.Good for everybody but I must say adults seem to be more competitive and it's more fun. That being said when you play with a conservative non-risk taker the will beat you almost every time. Dang it!

These are OK. Kinda pricey. Did not really 'grab' the family.

El contenido del juego es 1 juegos de 3 pirámides de distintos tamaños de cada uno de estos cinco colores: amarillo, verde, rojo, azul y negro, un dado con una cara de cada color y una cara "comodín" y otro dado con los tamaños de las pirámides. Acompaña el juego unas instrucciones para varias opciones de juego y una bolsita muy práctica para guardarlo todo o llevarlo con uno.Mis hijos (6 y 8 años) se pusieron a jugar casi al momento y se lo pasan bien.El juego, que es precioso, porque las pirámides de color transparente son muy bonitas, desarrolla la estrategia, aunque también interviene el azar.Es bueno para regalo y bueno, sobre todo para niños, aunque es divertido a cualquier edad.

This particular product is not available within the EU due to stupid safety regulations so purchasing via a US retailer on Amazon Marketplace was ideal.Quick and easy purchase, items arrived very promptly.There was an issue with customs charges, but this got resolved very quickly by the supplier so overall very happy

Replayability to the max. Get another bag and print out the 13 game rulebook from the looney labs website and you've got enough to play all of the games (with a little bit of tweaking for the 5 or 6 stash games)

Estaba deseoso de probar este sistema de juego y la verdad es que me ha encantado.Las pirámides son muy aparentes y la multitud de juegos, desde muy rápidos y ligeros, hasta mas lentos y pesados hace que por una inversión relativamente pequeña tengas horas de diversión.

Cumple lo prometido... Es estéticamente bonito y las opciones de juego son enormes. Es cierto que hay que tener una mente abstracta, para poder "ver" los robots, naves, árboles, nidos..de los posibles juegos.
