About this deal

The first dice tells you which horse to move while the second shows you how many spaces down the track it goes. The game comes with three sets of horse cards that can be used as a set or mixed and matched giving quite a lot of variety on top of the dice rolls.

It’s almost like that horse is super encouraging, turning around and going “Come on you lot, you can do it!The biggest difference, though, is that you’re in control of how the car you own moves around the track, although you’ll also be forced to move some of your opponent’s cars. In this case you have 1 lap of a race track to determine the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place horse and make as much money as you can. Long Shot: The Dice Game offers a continuous form of gambling where you wager limited actions for small yet momentous payouts.

It’s this grid that you will be using to manage your bets, adapt horse movements and give yourself the option of late betting on horses. Thankfully, Long Shot the Dice Game is edge of your seat fun without watching old people lose their life savings. As you go from horse 1 to 8 the multipliers increase, representing decreasing odds of that horse crossing the finishing line. Long Shot the Dice Game supports up to 8 players and I’ve really enjoyed it at just about any player count.Then check the horse card for that number (the game comes with a few sets of horse cards with different powers).

Stepping through that turnstile is like entering another world, a Disneyland dedicated to debauchery.Two dice are rolled, giving you two pairs of numbers, that then need to be written into one of three states shown by a card draw. It’s fairly easy to learn, fast to play, plays well from one to eight players, and has a satisfying mix of both strategy and randomness. When you setup you will be given some free bets on a couple of horses, pushing you towards them being your favoured steeds. The restriction is important, because it narrows strategic considerations and forces you into lesser desired pathways, but it also speeds up play by equally narrowing your action menu.
