Diceland: Space

Modern Hobby Strategy Games

Diceland: Space is a tabletop game supplement published by Cheapass Games in 2003 for Diceland. It is a ship-to-ship combat game in which paper dice serve as the characters. Diceland itself is a tabletop game of collectible paper dice designed by Toivo Rovainen and James Ernest and released by Cheapass Games in 2002, in which players roll paper cut-out octahedral dice into a combat arena and then use them like miniatures, moving them about and attacking other dice. The Space sets supply the science fiction setting for that dice-as-pieces system, and the 2003 releases also included two sets pitting Terrans against Urluquai and Garthans against Muktians. Reviews appeared in Pyramid and Backstab.
