Asmodée - Dice Game - Story Cubes

Everything is there and loads of ideas to sort through. Nice and small packaging that can fit in a travel bag and fun for the whole family. Just open the many small packages inside this one and let your imagination run wild with the shake of your hand or dice-rolling cup.

Loving dice and discovering these - I just had to have some! I stumbled upon a video on YouTube where this game was being demonstrated by the inventors. (I'd never heard of it) At first, like most people I guess, I was a little sceptical as to whether it would be the success it appeared it could be when I actually came to have a go myself. We're all a little shy I guess, and so the thought of rolling random images on cubes, and then having to `link' those images up to tell some kind of story (which could easily be nonsense - depending on what was rolled!) sounded a bit embarrassing to say the least... However; I thought I'd give these a go; not least because I love games involving dice (and these are nothing but dice with images instead of numbers, and so were so appealing to me) and also the fact that the people I saw playing with them seemed to really to be enjoying themselves! Having ordered my set - I couldn't wait to received them I was so eager and ready to go - and I wasn't disappointed! The very first throw, gave me quite an amazing set of images that I was fortunate enough to be able to think of a `link' without too much thought, which was good, as I would think a bad set of images on the very first go might influence newbies into thinking this may not be a good idea - but as it was, because of my good experience, in the very first instant my confidence and imagination had both `fired'! I then was surprised yet again when introducing them to my partner, who doesn't really enjoy dice games as much as myself, and who I thought would be pretty hopeless at it - proved to be much better than myself! Okay; they are a little expensive (and dice always are) but they ARE excellent quality (and so they should be) they come in a very neat little box with a magnetic fastener, and there are `expansion' sets. All in all a VERY good product; a challenging and imaginative game that I think is good for both young and old alike, and particularly for elderly people, in that it would be a great way to be sure their minds remained active! Five stars for a wonderful, useful and enjoyable little idea!

I bought these as a little treat for my three kids aged, 11 yrs, 9 yrs and 6 yrs. They all love it! There are no real rules so nothing to learn before getting stuck in and having fun. Kids have such amazing imaginations and these cubes really bring them to life. They love telling stories. The little box contains nine cubes and is easily transported so you can take it anywhere. Each side of each cube has a little picture, for instance a book, a bee or even a wigwam. You roll out the cubes, so some sort of surface is needed, then by looking at the pictures you make up the story using your imagination. You can also create characters for your story by rolling just 3 cubes. The kids have already made up other games and found other ways to use them. They just reach for them all the time, even play with them rather than the pc or computer games. We were first introduced to these cubes by one of my kids home tutors when she was too ill to go to school. They were used as story prompts for her English lessons.

Bought these for my daughter's 7th birthday as she has a very busy imagination and loves reading stories, making up her own and having them made up for her. She liked them a lot and played with them perhaps a little too much initially which meant that, for her, as one other reviewer has stated, they did get a wee bit limited as she couldn't come up with too many different permutations from the same pictures so the novelty wore off quite soon. We had a wee break from them for a while and now get them out a little less regularly just to keep it fresh. It's even more fun now as our 3 year old son can also join in with us and that puts another little brain/perspective on the case which turns it into quite a hilarious game for us all. I just love that we can sit round the table with these, get the creative juices going and have some quality play time. Would definitely recommend.

My whole family love these story cubes! They come in a sturdy, good sized tin with bright colours and each of the dice are really well made. The pictures on them are varied and interesting, prompting lots of interesting discussions in our house! It's learning, but in such a fun way - perfect for children from age 5 to teens. This is a great value product and I would recommend them for learning or just for fun!

I bought the "collector box" and it contains... - The classic set - Score dice (sporty stuff) - Prehistoric - Intergalactic - Medic - Clues - Enchanted (the pink one in the photos) But it seems that other people are getting different content. For (at the time) around £9 this is a lot of content and well worth the money. The dice are all nice quality and you get a lot of variety. As the images show, you might feel confused about how to open the boxes, but I cut the white line, just beneath the cardboard tongue and finally got inside. One small issue that I could mention, is that the "enchanted" dice are held inside a whole different box, and it doesn't close, at all, and stands out in the set. But as earlier, it seems random to what the 3 dice sets are, that you get with the core set, which isn't ideal. But at the price, it's hard to complain.

Ya tenemos unos cuantos de estos y les encantan, y como también les gusta Batman son perfectos. Geniales para potenciar la creatividad.

Kids love it so much, I'm considering purchasing other variations.

A just have for Batman fans. They were the perfect editions to my story cubes

I love story cubes. It's fun to see what people might come up with as they interject their own creativity into this storytelling game :)

Lo usamos habitualmente. es muy divertido
