About this board game

Rory’s Story Cubes: Prehistoria is a 2013 creativity game for 1–12 players that takes about 15 minutes to play. This expansion adds three new dice featuring 18 thematic actions for storytelling and creative play.

To begin, players roll the dice and use the actions shown to tell a story. The classic prompt, “Once upon a time…”, can open the narrative, inviting players to connect the rolled actions through their own ideas.

Prehistoria can be played on its own or combined with the original Rory’s Story Cubes game. This flexibility lets the set work as a self-contained storytelling activity or as an expansion to the original experience.

  • Players: 1–12
  • Play time: 15 minutes
  • Components: 3 new dice
  • Content: 18 thematic actions

Rory’s Story Cubes: Prehistoria is useful as an aid for creative problem solving, language learning, and storytelling. Rolling the dice provides a simple starting point, while the task of forming a story encourages players to work with the actions in imaginative ways.

Whether used independently or with the original game, this compact expansion offers a quick format for generating stories. With support for a single player or a group of up to twelve, it can fit a range of storytelling situations while keeping the focus on the rolled actions and the stories they inspire.
