Bang the dice gameThis game takes the number 1 spot as a 8 player game for me in my personal game collection. A cowboy themed dice game. It's awesomeness packed in a small box. A real gem of a game.Easy to teach, simple and quick to play make this a ideal game to play. Priced around £16 you will definitely get your money's worth and bring it to the table on many of occasions. A great game to play with both your friends and family. A real crowd pleaser.What's the objective of the game?It really depends on who you are. There are 4 possible roles to play. sheriff, detective, outlaw or renegade.The sheriff's job is to kill the outlaws, the detective's job is to keep the sheriff alive,

'Bang' is an absolutely fantastic game for 3-8 players that plays in about 15 minutes, making it a great way to start an evening off or fill a bit of space. Each game has you fulfilling secret roles, forming alliances, gambling and duelling with the other people around the table in what is a fast and fun game every time.Bang is so easily recommendable because it's a game for all purposes, it's really easy to teach, really easy to play, competitive but also fast enough to avoid any frustration. You'll more than likely play several games in a row and because there are a wealth of different playable characters, as well as constantly changing roles, every game plays out differently.

Basically you're one of 3 to 8 players, who take the role of The Sheriff & Deputies, Outlaws and/or Renegades.There's a progressive scale depending on the number of players but the rules are virtually the same, although there's a variant for 3 players.Each player gets a role and character card, these determine what you're looking to do (role), your hit points and special abilities (characters).The bullet tokens represent your hp (hit points/health) and each roll gives you chances to damage others or other effects like Native American Indians invading, dealing damage to all players or yourself and regaining health.The ultimate goal of the game is to either kill the Sheriff or the Outlaws and

I introduced this game to my friends by saying "It's a bit like a cross between King of Tokyo and The Resistance" (both of which you can also get on Amazon. If you haven't played either of those before, I might say to you that it's a cross between Yahtzee and Mafia/Werewolf.If you still don't know what that means, then I'll say it's a game of 2 halves: Rolling 5 dice (with a bit of push-your-luck) to see what you can do on your turn, and deciding what to do based on the role you have been given (that others will be trying to deduce).It's a quick game, lasting about 20 minutes I think. I agree with many of the review on the boardgamegeek website which mention that this is good,

We gave this to our 10 year old and the whole family loves playing it. It takes 3 at least, but can go up to 8. The action is fast enough that you don't get bored when it isn't your turn. The rules sound a bit complicated, but the game comes with little cheat sheet cards, and after you've played a game or two, it actually moves along quickly. We find ourselves playing it 2 or 3 times in a row because it's so much fun.It's patterned after tropes from American "spaghetti Western" films. You have someone who's the sheriff of the town, a couple outlaws, a deputy, and a renegade. The action is pretty simple. You roll dice to see what actions you can take. You can either shoot someone, heal yourself,

This is a great game for 4 or more players. It is not as good for 3 players, but still 4 stars. The real difference is that with 4 or more your character role is kept secret (unless you are the sherriff). This adds to the strategy of the game.Being small and easy to carry around is a great advantage too. All you need to play is somewhere you can roll a few dice - and some people to play with. It's perfect to take on holiday. If you like drinking games that require a little thought you can even take it on a pub crawl. The small box (about the size of a paperback book) contains 5 dice, 8 character role cards,16 character cards and some life counters and 9 arrow counters.

Hi This is a great card and Dice Game.works better with a larger group really needs 4 x plus playersIs quite brutal as basically you are killing your opponents but all good fun.i this with a bigger group say 6 to 8 players this game will really work well as the 'who is who' element will really shine.the set comes in a nice neat box that is quite compact so great for travel holidays etc . Plus the overall quality of the components is very good with nice quality cards and dice.I have played with my kids 4 and 9 and though i have to explain to the 4 yr old she likes shooting the rest of the family :)would recommend especially with a larger group

An excellent game for up to 8 players. You have good guys vs. bad guys vs. lone wolf. You don't know who each other are and the lone wolf can act in a confusing way that makes it harder to guess every person's role. With 8 players the first couple of rounds can be a bit of a slog - you can only shoot up to 2 spaces away which means half the table can't reach the sheriff and so people are shooting randomly which gives no clue as to what role they are playing.I strongly suggest adding

Bang! The card game is a good fun game, which can outstay its welcome occassionally. The dice game avoids this by being faster paced, and perhaps more fun. It is missing some elements of the card game, so doesn't replace it, but is a good alternative.Perhaps the best comparison is with King of Tokyo - both play in similar time, and involve dice. I'm happy to play either, but would lean 60-40 in favour of KoT when given the choice between the two. But you should have both!

King of Tokyo is currently all the rage and rightly so, its a great game. Bang! The Dice Game beats it hands down however, using a similar dice rolling system but adding in a big helping of lying, backstabbing and mistrust!The game plays in 15-20 mins so its a great filler, but in our gaming group we regularly play 3 or 4 games back to back and its probably our favourite game at the moment. One point I'd make is that it says 3+ players but it works much better with 5+

A variant on "Killer" "Werewolf" and "Mafia" - hidden identity games. The introduction of dice adds a randomness to this that's great fun. We played it at first with a group of friends who aren't board gamers and they quickly picked it up and enjoyed several rounds. Fast paced and fun, though my 8 year old struggled to keep up with the rules and needed some help to play along.

Excellent game of tactics bluff and intrigue. Each player has a character card and a role card, which makes each game play differently, but it's essentially a 3-way shoot out between Outlaws, A Sheriff and his Deputies, and Renegades. Plays best with 5+ players though good fun with any number. Although a dice game, not really a game of chance.

This has become a staple part of our gaming nights. Fast, fun and if you're knocked out because the games are so quick you're back in the game straight away. Amazing game everyone should try in with a good group when they get the chance. Also if you don't like cowboys there is a walking dead zombie version as well ... who doesn't like zombies!

A brilliant game, only wish I'd bought it sooner. I played it with a bunch of friends some of whom were board game veterans and some who were very new to board games and this was very well accepted by both parties.It is really simple to learn and play, but because of the role system it has really good replayability.

Bang the dice game is an incredible filler game to play in between classic and long board games sessions, each round last 15-20 minutes, up to 8 people can play, and uses the same role mechanic than BANG original card game. I do recommend, easy to learn, children over 8 years old can play. Lots of fun at parties.
