Game Overview

As the mayor of a small community, it's up to you to construct the best town possible. Choose from a selection of building plans choosen at the last town meeting and get constructing! Each building plan lets you mine a certain type of material and shows what values of materials are needed to build, as each building has different requirements. Buildings can give you different abilities to be used on each of your turns, from manipulating the dice materials to be different values, to being able to transform specific die materials into other materials, to giving you extra points for building certain types of buildings.

  • Draft Building Plans: Only certain buildings are available each round, so draft the plans that work the best in your town.
  • Dice Manipulation: Certain buildings can let you manipulate the dice, making it easier to continue building!
  • Limited Dice: Buildings require certain dice types, so take strategically to make sure you can complete your town.

  • “A fun, quick dice game with fast choices and some dice mitigation to try and build different buildings out of dice that require different building rules. SO CUTE MUST HAVE NEED NEED NEED“ - Danny, Derek and Danny
  • “There aren’t games that I literally go, “I want to play this all the time,” but Tumble Town is literally that.“ - Theo, Variable Player Podcast
  • “There was a great balance between randomness due to dice rolls but also having the dice available to you. This was fast and easy to catch up when you get behind. It’s a very cute experience.“ - Ella, Variable Player Podcast
