Quarriors!

Quarriors! is a Pool-building game made by WizKids. In it Players represent a titular mystical warrior, and players roll dice which gives them Quiddity (an in-game currency) which allows them to purchase additional Spell Dice or Creature Dice, which can then be used to attack the opponent.[1][2][3]

Quarriors! was released in 2011, and was a nominee for Dice Tower game of the year, Best family game, and most innovative game of the year.[4]

Gameplay

The games have a lot of variability, in that the dice that are available to purchase each game change, so the way they interact can cause a great variety of changes in the game.[5]

It is often praised due to the lack of shuffling needed, as the dice can be readily pulled out of the bag.[6]

Legacy

The game has spawned several expansions, and a port to iOS.[7]

Quarriors! was the basis for WizKids' later Dice Masters series.[8]

Reception

Quarriors has been quite popular with the gaming crowd with many people bringing it to events like Gencon and Penny Arcade Expo.[9][10][11] Despite not being for sale, or official representation at Penny Arcade Expo 2011, it got a lot of play time.[11]

Quarriors won the Origins Award for "Best Family, Party or Children's Game of 2012".[12]
