About this board game

Rory’s Story Cubes: Medic is a storytelling and creativity game for 1–10 players, with sessions lasting about 20 minutes. Released in 2014, this expansion adds three new dice featuring 18 thematic actions to inspire imaginative stories.

To play, roll the dice and use the actions shown to tell a story. Begin with “Once upon a time…” and let the rolled symbols guide the direction of your tale. The game focuses on creative storytelling rather than a fixed narrative, making each roll an invitation to think and speak creatively.

This set can be played on its own or combined with the original Rory’s Story Cubes. Used together, the sets provide a broader collection of prompts for building stories and exploring connections between different actions and ideas.

  • Includes 3 new dice
  • Features 18 thematic actions
  • Supports 1–10 players
  • Plays in approximately 20 minutes
  • Can be used alone or with the original game

Beyond entertainment, Rory’s Story Cubes: Medic can be useful as an aid for creative problem solving, language learning, and storytelling. Players can use the action-based prompts to practise expressing ideas, develop imaginative responses, or simply create a story from an unexpected combination of results.

Whether used as a compact standalone activity or as an expansion for the original game, this set offers a simple way to turn a roll of the dice into a creative storytelling challenge.
