Caterpillars
Another fun, cheerful, and accessible roll-and-write game: Caterpillars! Caterpillars is a simple dice game with three dice, where players must award points to their three greedy caterpillars. Roll the dice, combine wisely, and watch your caterpillars grow bigger and fatter. But watch out, because only one caterpillar grows into a butterfly!
Players roll three dice and choose which die or dice indicate the box where they must record the remaining points. Three times during the game, a player may set aside a dice roll for a later round. At the end, the caterpillar with the lowest and the caterpillar with the highest score are eliminated, and the caterpillar with the middle score determines the final score.
Caterpillars is a fast and accessible dice game for young and old. Extra fun: the game is playable in four difficulty levels!
Honey Wall
Nature themes are always popular in games, so we’re moving from the caterpillars of Caterpillars to the bees of Honey Wall! In this dice game, the Dutch bees need your help. Their habitat is shrinking, and now wasps are bothering them too. Surround the larvae with honey so they are protected from the wasps.
In Honey Wall, you try to score points by surrounding the bee larvae with honey. By rolling the dice, you can draw larvae or honey on your game board. If you roll a wasp, you may steal your opponent’s larvae that are not surrounded by honey, thereby scoring points at the end of the game. Large groups of larvae yield more points, but are vulnerable to the opponent’s wasps. The player who manages to score the most points with the larvae at the end wins the game!

Here’s the thing: cats love boxes, but they hate cucumbers! In this funny *and* cute dice game, you roll the dice to move your cats to cozy boxes, collect toys, and enjoy delicious snacks. But… cucumbers can easily ruin your day! In the funny dice game Cats vs. Cucumbers, you look for the balance between cooperating and being a nuisance, while trying to walk away with the win yourself!
