To further explain movement & battle: there are 5 types of special monsters: Fliers, Tunnelers, Piercers, negaters & Family immunity. Fliers: these guys take 2 movement crests to move 1 space, but for battle they can't be targeted by non fliers. Tunnelers: they move 1 space per movement crest spent, and can go underneath your opponent's monsters even if they aren't a flier Piercer: Black Luster Soldier is the only example i can think of, but a Piercer can bypass the battle protection of a Flierl Negater: this comes in 2 flavors: battle negater & field effect negator. Lord of Dragons negates battles with dragons while on the field, essentially protecting them. There are 2 field effect negators, the Shadow Family's Feral Imp negates the Flier effect, and the Dragon Family's Winged Dragon Guardian of the Fortress negates Tunneling Family immunity: the Dragon Family's Baby Dragon & Zombie Family's Clown Zombie cannot gain a boon or be bane'd by their family's match-ups There is a black die knkwn as the gumblar, this makes it so the use of movement crests will require double the cost (normal monsters & tunnelrs will require 2 movement crests to move per space, while fliers will require 4 movement crests to move 1 space) Finally: in battle you can use a defense crest if you wish, but you don't have to against an enemy with a power level of 10 if your monster has the type advantage. Not using a defense crest will treat your monster with as if it has 0 defense, but the family boon will grant it +10 defense against what it has an advantage against, so it will not lose health.

The Most Important Rule: Dark Magician can do literally whatever it wants for some reason.

I feel like DDM was ahead of it's time, I feel like you could really make this work as an online game these days

This feels like a game that would work pretty well in an app. That way you wouldn’t have to worry about storing all of your dice, tiles, and counters.

10:35 Even as a monster card or dungeon dice monster, The Dark Magician has his sassy gestures with his "Uh uh uh" hands that simply cracks me a smile, like an adult scolding a child. 😂

I don’t understand why this game didn’t catch on. I loved it so much. There were no “worthless” monsters as they can be used for combat or simply for building your dungeon with the weaker monsters building it more easily.

Konami NEEDS to bring this game back ! Maby make a duel links/master duel version of dungen dice monsters ? I had this idea since duel links first came out. I mean, imagine how cool that would be

Since I don't see it, probabilities of rolling a summon are: (Using only two dice of the same level) Level 1 - 44% Level 2 - 25% Level 3 - 11% Level 4 - ~3% (Using 3 dice all same level) Level 1 - 72% Level 2 - 50% Level 3 - 25% Level 4 - ~8%

Fun Fact: the western version and Japanese version of the physical game Dungeon Dice Monsters were different with the Japanese version matching how it appeared in the anime with the correct colors for dice and the dice even being made up of the dungeon path so they could unfold into the path like the anime.

“So it’s just like Duel Monsters.” “My game uses dice.” “BURN THE WITCH.”

Thanks for making the math easy! A third die would be difficult. 2 dice with 2/3 odds means 4/9 odds of summoning, or 44.44%. 2 dice with 1/6 odds means 1/36, or 2.78%.

Had Dungeon Dice monsters been successful, I’m curious how the meta would have changed over time. - free dice rolls after a summon? - more than one side for a level 4? - special squares on the board for special types of monsters? Would be fun to think about how things would’ve evolved compared to the card game.

Ahhh the short mini arc where Yugi finally changed outta his school clothes and was looking fly as hell. They should’ve kept this outfit on him for Battle City imo

I played the GBA Dunegon Dice game when I was young, I absolutely loved it. And coincidentally We had been learning about cubes (?) And Dungeon Dice actually helped me figure them all out lol

Can't wait for the true rules for action duels (dueling plus parkor), speed duels (duels on hover boards), and rush duels (simple duel rules)

I actually have the full set of DDM. When I say "full set", I mean I have every single piece made for the English market from all the sets, Starter and Boosters. I really liked the game, still kinda salty that it didn't catch on.

I kinda think Dungeon Dice Monsters might have been more successful if they had the technology and funds to make the dice like Bakugans. Probably the coolest way the anime showed the game was by having the monsters spawn from the dice and that's how Bakugans worked, they were spheres that transformed and revealed a monster inside. You probably couldn't move the monsters, that's the whole point of the board, to move the monsters around the dungeon. But I don't know, Bakugan always felt to me what the monsters in DDM could have looked like.

I had myself a copy of Dungeon Dice Monsters when I was a kid a remember enjoying it way more than the Yu-Gi-Oh card game itself. After I played it it was so fun, I was convinced it would take off and be the next big thing... sadly it did not. This video makes me want to see if I can find a copy and play it again though.

Its not 12 dice, its 15 dice. Also: the limit is 10 summons, but if you added the monster reborn black die item in your dice pool and get a monster on it, you can get 1 more summon

The video game version of this was the best yugioh game I've probably ever played. The attacks where animated, the monstars where all animated. What a great game.

I’ve always kinda felt like they should have had Yugi & Joey’s duel against Para and Dox happen after DDM was introduced, and have it be a 2-on-2 version of that game instead. Makes more sense than how they just have their own unique style of field and gameplay in Duelist Kingdom. That said, DDM probably got thought up BECAUSE of that episode’s more boardgame-like duel, along with similar concepts from Season 0.

yes Dark Magician seems broken, but it didn't deserve to lose its effects in the real game. Plus, it's a level 4 summon. As explained, that's not exactly easy (not ridiculously impossible either), but DDM could have just used a standard "once per turn" or maybe "up to 3" times per turn so people can't just run rampant with magic crests built up over the game. Having played the real version enough to be good at it, games can become very chaotic later on when you've spent a whole game building crests for the final blow.

The odds of getting Dark Magician are pretty low, so it's understandable that he would have a really powerful ability.

Dungeon Dice Monsters was interesting. Got to play a few games and I enjoyed it. I believe it ultimately died off though because the figures were too expensive for the game to be super profitable.

There are two differences between the anime DDM and the Gba DDM. In the gba game, a monster can move AS OFTEN as it likes even after battle. However it can only attack once per turn. So in theory, you can move 5 spaces, attack a monster and then move your piece again to its next destination. Or: if you have a lot of movement crests. You can attack the dungeon master, move away with the attacker and then move in a different piece to strike. Three strike-ninja beat down. Also: during battle if the defending piece had at least 10 more defensive strenght than the attacker had attack strenght. The difference was dealt as knockback to the attacking piece. For example Attacker: 20 atk /10 HP Defender 10 atk / 20 HP / 30 def. If the Defender blocks using a defense crest, the attacker receives knockback equal to the difference 20 atk - 30 def = -10 atk = 10HP knockback The attacker could even get killed by the knockback damage, akin to duel monster rules

'its exactly like duel monsters"

Great set of videos on the rulings of different games of the Yugioh franchise. Nostalgia comes up when playing the emulated game of DDM on GBA. The game gets repetitive but did let me learn the rules subconsciously without a manual. Takahashi scares me with duel monster season 1 rules. No kid should fear GBA The Sacred Cards. That was my equivalent to PS1 Forbidden Memories. Side note: I did love it when the Bandai anime concluded with a dnd game. Such a good two-part episode.

6:00 yep, I did that a lot in the video game. I'd often have the enemy keep failing to the point that not only did I get to them first but, I'd make it physically impossible for them to summon anything. I think the AI was stupid.

If we only focus on two dice landing on those numbers, the chances of rolling a level 4 monster would be (1/6 x 1/6) 1/36 while rolling a level 1 monster would be (4/6 x 4/6) so 16/36. Meaning that statically, you'll get 16 level 1 for the same number of dice rolls trying to get a level 4 monster.

Imagine Joey playing dungeon dice...

These episodes were actually my childhood. One of the only Yugioh DVDs I owned had these 3, and I loved watching it everytime.

I still love dungeon dice monsters I wish they brought it back in later shows

Its kinda interesting that both the anime/ manga variant and the real life versions of Dice Monsters kinda suffered the same fate Namely they both were shut down cause the main game was just much more popular

Honestly if a game like this came out 100% unaffiliated by Yugioh, it may be a niche like bakugan but it would be freaking amazing. They could come in like these blind bags of 3 dice and rarities could be like this dice is shiny or this one has a monster figurine made of like that clear plastic bakugans we’re made of. It would honestly be something so fun and different

I really loved this concept when it was introduced in Yu-Gi-Oh, wish they'd continued with it

I think you forgot another rule for movement. When a monster is flying it takes two movement crest to move one space and some monsters have ability to move twice the squares for 1 movement. Flying monsters can't be hurt by physical attacks.

Fun fact, Dungeon Dice Monsters might not have caught on, but they did have a real world spiritual successor outside of the board game. There was a collaboration with the tabletop war game Heroclix that gave five different Yu-Gi-Oh themed sets with different monsters and playmats for the game. The rarer figures are harder to find nowadays, but I own a few of the more common ones, such as Cyber Jar, Fiber Jar, Feral Imp, and Revival Jam. From pictures, some of the models didn't age well, but things like Blue Eyes White Dragon, Blue Eyes Ultimate Dragon, Dark Magician, Exodia the Forbidden One all of those aged well.

As someone studying math: the probability calculations in the comments are all wrong. This is mostly due to the fact many people misunderstand what they need to calculate. The following is what needs to be determined: what's the chance of ATLEAST 2 out of 3 succeses with the following probabilities: 4/6 3/6 2/6 1/6 I did the math, I calculated the binomial distribution for every outcome and added the ones where you get 2 succes with the ones where you get 3 succeses (atleast 2 succeses) Here are the results(rounded): Level 1: 74% Level 2: 50% Level 3: 26% Level 4: 7,4% Edit: in case 1 of the 3 dice doesn't match the level of the other 2 dice, the probabilities are: Level 1: 16/36 Level 2: 9/36 Level 3: 4/36 Level 4: 1/36 In case all 3 dice have different levels: 0%

Lol! TGS's facial expression at the concluding freeze frame should be a meme. "TFW your Master Duels opponent is running Drytrons."

That's a cool effect for Dark Magician, it reminds me of the Magical Dimension card; that's a good way to "teleport" a spellcaster from your hand to the field and get to destroy an opponents monster in the process, "trading places" with it. Of course, that card requires you to 1. Control a spellcaster and 2. Tribute a monster, making it significantly less broken. I think it'd be cool, and hopefully less broken, to try and fix it whilst making it more like Magical Dimension: 1. You must already have another spellcaster summoned on the field 2. You must tribute 1 monster on the field you control 3. Spend magic crest points equal to the level of a spellcaster in your dice pool to summon it to the field without a dice roll 4. If successful, you may destroy an opponents monster. Maybe still broken? Still a cool start I reckon.

I have been getting recommended like 500 video essays from people I don't know about topics I don't care about. I am happy to see your yugioh content in my KZfaq feed again.

You did a FANTASTIC job here explaining the rules. I'm working on a reboot of the game myself and you can see my prototype (V1.7) on my channel I'd you're curious. Honestly, I feel like Konami dropped the ball in a lot of ways when it came not only to this game's distribution, but with it's presentation. The thing my cousin and i HATED about the physical game was the game mat. No matter how hard you tried, those creases in the mat always hindered the game. What you see on the box is actually a placeholder (as observed in a Beckett magazine article with the folks at Mattel). I hope my version takes off, even if it's on a small scale.

One of the coolest arcs from the anime. I love Duel Monsters but I also loved the moments in the original series where they stepped away from it to show Yugi is truly the Oh of Yugis, not just Oh of YugiOh! Oh... I hope Konami one day revisits this, maybe for a cheap mobile game or an alternate format in Master Duel/Duel Links.

Always found those 3 episodes interesting/confusing but I’m glad this video cleared all of that up. Maybe we can get a Capsule Monsters video next, along with the PS2 game of Capsule Monsters Colosseum.

I really wish this had caught in more. I had the original board game, me and my yugi oh group had a lot of fun with it.

I'm rally glad you got the chance to showcase the Dungeon Dice Monsters episodes. Beside the battle between Joey and Yugi, this the DDM episodes were among my top favorite moments of the og series. Sad to see that it couldn't progress more

Would certainly love to have a new video game of this series be released. There are so many things that could be implemented.

I had the Gameboy game and I loved it. I usually found that segmenting the board so only one path was availible to my health was available and then sticking a Cocoon of Evolution right in front basically gave me the best defense since it had 40 defence.

I actually owned Dungeon Dice Monsters board game when I was very young. I managed to get the game after I won a game when I was in Elementary School. Sadly, I lost all the pieces, except for a chewed-up Strike Ninja piece. Speaking of which, how about a video discussing the monster effects in Dungeon Dice Monsters?

Oh i forgot to mention on what Sam pinned: if you do decide to use a defense crest when you have the family advantage, said advantage grants +10 defense. If your monster's defense is higher than the agressor's attack, then the attacker is the one to lose health

i remember having Dungeon Dice Monsters on GBA in 2003, i was 8 years old and never really figured it out completely but i still loved playing it. Wish it was able to stay alive to today and sometimes find myself loading it up on my GBA emulator

I actually have my own variation of this but it’s known as miniature mayhem . You use monster miniatures . I was working on it did a wile . I even have the rules . The monsters and the lore and stuff . So here they are Rules : monster summoning You can summon as many monsters as you wish as long as you have enough scort A summoned monster has attack points defence points magic points armour points and medic points wisdom points Charisma points and strength points When a monster runs out if armour points it is destroyed You can fuse merge or splice Frankenstein your monsters together but no more then 10 monsters can go into any of the aforementioned summoning techniques You can revive destroyed monsters as many time as you want with out using scot You can mecha zombie elemental or cure revive your monsters as meny time as you want but you need materials You can sacrifice monsters to regain your life pints All monsters have special abilities but some have special tech with them The monster you use the most is your familiar monster and counts as a human and a monster and can survive out side the battle zone and can tack over fir you if you get overwhelmed Other rules Really there is only four Have fun and don’t cheat and don’t get toxic and be a good sport or you auto lose Other then that have fun

DDM was one of my fav arcs but capsule monsters will always be my fav! I know they didn’t really “play” capsule monsters, but I’d love to see you cover that next!

Could you imagine if dungeon dice monsters actually took off as well as the main series did? That would be crazy.

I had the gameboy version of this game, and it was actually really fun! Pretty limited in gameplay, as were most of the YuGiOh franchise games at the time, but still really fun.

Odds for each summoning crest are as follows: Level 1: 4/6 * 4/6 = 16/36 or 4/9 , about 45% Level 2: 3/6 * 3/6 = 9/36 or 1/4, 25% Level 3: 2/6 * 2/6 = 4/36 or 1/9 , about 11% Level 4: 1/6 * 1/6 = 1/36, about 2.8% Adding a 3rd die, you'd simply multiply the fractions above by the respective fraction for the level. Level 1 would be 4/9 * 4/6, and so on, then simplify from there. Since you only need 2 dice to match, the third die can effectively be ignored.

I had assumed that Dark Magicians ability was that it could teleport with another monster, but then one of them would be destroyed randomly. So you could potentially get DM close to your opponent, but you also ran the risk of moving you opponents monster into your territory and destroying DM.

For the stats on rolling a summon in DDM: Your die has 6 faces, therefor the odds of rolling a face on the die is x/6 (x being the number of faces that share the icon) So if a level 1 die is rolled, that has 4 summon crests, which means you have a 4/6 chance of getting that crest. We need to find the probability of AT LEAST 2 matches, we get this by doing 1 - Pr(none happening) - Pr(Exactly 1 happens), which means you have about an 89% chance of summoning a monster if you throw 3 level 1 dice.

I wish I would've known Dungeness dice monsters was real as a kid. That & the paradox duel is something every kid wished to experience 😅

In case people are wondering, if I did the math right, here's the probablility of summoning any given level of monster, assuming you roll 3 dice of the same level: Level 1 monsters: ~73.1% Level 2 monsters: ~50% Level 3 monsters: ~25.5% Level 4 monsters: ~7.4%

PLEASE DO THE RULING FOR THE EXSPET RUELS FOR THE FIRST DUEL DISKS. AKA THE FRIZBEES OR THE YOYO STYLE ONES FROM DUELIST KINGDOM

What you all came here for, the math. The odds of getting 2 out of 3 summon crests on your dice are as follows (assuming you're using dice of the same levels for all three) 1-(odds of getting no summon crests)-(odds of getting only one summon on any die x3{since this scenario crops up three times, one for each die}) For a level one summon (4 crests per die): 1-(2/6)^3-[(4/6)*(2/6)*(2/6)]*3~=.741, almost 3 out of 4. For a level four summon (1 crest per die): 1-(5/6)^3-[(1/6)*(5/6)*(5/6)]*3~=.0741, literally exactly one tenth the odds of a level one summon. To sum up: Level one summon: 74.1% Level 4 summon: 7.41% Feel free to check my math, it's been a while since I did this kind of probability analysis.

It is a damn shame that Dungeon Dice Monsters didn't go off into more cool ideas, since that duel between Atem and Duke was fun and interesting. I could only imagine what would happen if the game transferred to GX or 5Ds somehow in a different form. Like maybe in the 5Ds timeline, Dungeon Dice Monsters would evolve into a gambling ring alongside the dangerous turbo duels........on second thought, that would be pretty awful but really cool lol. Splendid work on the video as always!

Having played the DDM GBA game extensively, I honestly think Lv 4 monsters should have broken effects, since they're so hard to summon (I'm pretty sure it's half the chance of a Lv 3 monster). I'd basically only use Lv 1 monsters to build the dungeon and then Lv 2's for combat, only using Lv 3's if the AI managed to summon something strong. Dark Magician (and all the other spell effects) should be once per turn to stop OTKs, but otherwise that effect would probably be fine.

Thanks for my suggestion of Dungeon Dice Monsters.

By those rules, if you roll 3 dice that have level 1 monsters in them, you have a 74.074% chance of summoning them, while if you roll 3 dice that have a level 4 monster in them, you only have 7.4074% chance. Chart below- Odds of successfully summoning a monster if all three dice have the same level monster: Level 1= 74.074% Level 2= 50.000% Level 3= 25.9259% Level 4= 7.4074% Odds of successfully summoning a monster if only two of the dice have the same level (making the third dice useless): Level 1= 44.4444% Level 2= 25.0000% Level 3= 11.1111% Level 4= 2.7777% And there's actually 11 unique ways to unfold a 6 sided dice, without mirroring/flipping any of them, they are called the 'nets of a cube'

The biggest shame about Dungeon Dice Monsters is that it never got a video game on a console with internet connectivity. I'd love to play this against real players without going through massive hoops.

Also DDM is absolutely derivative of CMC rather than Duel Monsters. CMC also has the same monsters as Magic & Wizards/Duel Monsters. In fact, IIRC, CMC _exclusively_ uses the same monsters.

For some reason when I was a kid this left a mark on me, maybe even more than YU GI OH, I can't really explain why, but I still remember these episodes, and it still gives me that fussy feeling.

One thing I love from the video game version that was not in the anime was that the board can have blocked tiles that you can't play on, so you have to build your dungeon path AROUND them.

I really wish this more popular. I liked the concept of it

Fun facts from the Manga Version: - The games name was "D.D.D" ( Dragon, Dice and Dungeon ) - The normal Yugi played this duel. - The dungeon master was an actual movable object on the field. - The arena was just an electronic table top game, instead of this giant thing in the anime. - There were no power levels on the summon crests, so they could mix the different dice to summon. - Monsters had no lifepoints, but would be destroyed if the enemy was stronger ( like in the card game ) - The attack points were multiple of 100 instead of 10. - The Dark Magician wasn't used in the duel. Overall they really improved the game before bringing it to the anime.

It’s funny cuz I completely forgot about this until I saw this video recommended. Then all the memories flooded in. I actually loved this concept more than the regular duel monster card game

I used to have dungeon dice monsters for gba and I played it nonstop. Honestly one of my favorite ways to play duel monsters.

I'd have let Dark Magician keep his effect, but make it cost more and slap a once per turn limit onto it.

I would love to see someone who has never played either dungeon dice monsters or duel monsters trying to figure out which game is easier to understand/more beginner friendly since both seem to be kinda hard to get into if you have no prior knowledge

honestly this is my all time favorite part of YGO series ever since i read it years ago

i calculated the chances of summoning a monster of each level, assuming that all three dice have the same level monster in them. level 1 has a 20/27 chance of being summoned, level 2 has a 1/2 chance, level 3 has a 7/27 chance, and level 4 only has a 2/27 chance of being summoned. In a real game you presumably wouldn't be guaranteed to have all 3 dice be the same level, so chances would drop. If you have 2 dice of the same level, and a 3rd dice of a different level, the chances become, 4/9, 1/4, 1/9, and 1/36. the chances of getting matching dice changes based on how you build your team. If you assume that each dice is chosen independently, and has an equal chance of being each of the 4 levels. getting 3 matching dice has a 1/16 chance, getting two has an 9/16 chance, and getting all mismatching levels has a 6/16 chance. Playing a deck with an equal amount of each level would give you slightly worse odds than this because each dice can only be chosen once, so if the first die you see is of a certain level, the other dice have a slightly lower chance of being that level. That seems like pretty low odds, but i haven't seen the rest of the video so i hope the effects are good enough to justify that.

NGL this would have been such a cool digital board game, especially nowadays when we have so much online card games... i guess it was too ahead of its time

more than 20 years later and the idea still seems so fascinating

Now Dungeon Dice Monster with hypercubes will be amazing.

Reminds me of when we used to just cut out paper dice and make our own rules and play "dungeon dice monsters" back in elementary school

DDM is the most underrated variant in the entire series and I cannot be convinced otherwise

This was the most underrated part of Yu-Gi-Oh! The cards were fun but i wish this would have taken off and became more popular

Best trick in DDM: 1) Have only easy to summon monsters. 2) Build a line as fast as possible to your opponent's side. 3) Wall off his starting zone so he can't summon. 4) Gloat because they can't do anything.

I remember playing this game on GBA and had a decent time with it. Its actually very original and would def. recommend a try

The probability of two dice rolling the same specific number is the odds of one die rolling that number times the second die rolling that number. So with each die having a 4/6 chance of rolling the summon crest, that’s 4/6 * 4/6 = 4/9 Same goes for the 1 in 6 chance with 1/6 * 1/6 = 1/36

A friend of mine and I were actually talking about this over a game of D&D and thought it would be interesting if the various other dice from D&D got added to the allowed dice pool. The mechanics of it would be a nightmare, especially in the case of the D100, but it would be fascinating to have that much chaos unfold in a game like Dungeon Dice Monsters.

Chances of roll two 6's on two six sided dice are 1 in 36. This is because when rolling two six sided dice, there are 36 total combinations and only one of those combinations includes the same side on both dice popping up. This is equivalent to there being a single Summon Star for 4th level monsters. Adding a third dice with a 4th level monster increases the total combinations to 216 and raises the chance of rolling two of them to 36/216 which can be simplified to a 1 in 6 chance. Pretty interesting mechanics.

I had a my roommate invite our friends over to hang out and suddenly dropped on us that we're all going to make character sheets for a dnd game that we didn't plan for and half the people there had no intentions of playing dnd. Watching this feels like that.

I hope Konami Bring back yugioh dungeon dice masters in the future

4:34 2 level 1 dice have a 88.89% chance of summoning a monster and 2 level 4 dice have a 2.78% chance of summoning a monster.

I collected/crafted all the components for this game. Printed out all the cards for all the English release monsters. Even bought a starter set for the dice and crest counters. The hardest thing to get is figures! So pricey

9:16 He just flipped us all the bird.

I played the shit out of the GBA game, but I still appreciated the video. Easiest deck I had focused around placing Millenium Shield infront of your hearts in the double L block, with one turn placed against the wall. It meant that your opponent had to kill a monster with a minimum of 40 health (most monsters maxed at 30 attack) or had to perfectly place into the one free square available on the side.

I remember loving this game. I drew the game symbols on small wooden blocks. 🙂

Interestingly the original manga version had no ties to Pegasus or Duel Monsters. The entire arc it appeared in in fact was very loosely reworked into both the one we see in the anime as well as the Bandit Keith vs Yugi duel. One notable difference is that it's actually Yugi who plays the game and not Yami which proves that Yugi's skill is entirely his own.

I forgot to mention a few things: Obstical Destroyer & Boosters. Giant Soldier of Stone was the only Shadow type (and only dice monster) that could destroy obsticals by using spell crests (some boards have obsticals, making it impossible to lat down a dungeon path) Boosters, there are 12 of these, 6 of them boost attack power, the other 6 boost defense. These are stackable Petite Dragon boosts Dragon Atk & Parrot Dragon boosts Dragon defense Mamoth Graveyard boosts Beast attack power, Jellyfish boosts Beast defense The Snake Hair boosts Zombie Defense, i think Zombie Warrior does the same for attack (could be wrong) Castle of Dark Illusions boosts Shadow defense, Rock Ogre Grotto boosts Shadow attack Skelngal boosts warrior defense...i forgor what boosts warrior attack. Next in from duel monsters to ddm, several types were merged under each family Spellcasters make the majority of Shadow, but Fiends, most Machines, & rock were added Dragons make the majority of Dragon, but Barrel Dragon, a machine was added to Dragon Zombies are the entierty of Zombies. Warriors make the majority of warriors, but Fairies were added to the warrior family Beasts are comprised of: Beasts, Beast-Warrior, Aqua, Plant, Insect & Winged Beast (Mamoth Graveyard, a Dinosaur was added to this family) The maximum power a monster can obtain is 250

How I would add features DDM in case they make a new mobile/desktop game: Roads you built from unrolling the dice will have preferred directions (like almost one way streets) giving movement bonus or penalty once per monster depending on movement direction. Monsters can self-destruct with area damage and you can only deal damage to opponent’s life points through self-destruct. (or only the “terrorist” side can self-destruct and the “anti-terrorist” side have different win conditions)

I really miss it. It wasn’t very good but it was fun. It was different enough to remind me of a very specific moment in my childhood, a better time in my life when I was happier.
