About this board game

Troll & Dragon is a push-your-luck dice game for 2–5 players that plays in around 20 minutes. Each player takes the role of a daring thief, seeking to collect as many gems and golden nuggets as possible without waking the legendary dragon.

On your turn, roll the dice as many times as you want, provided you still have something to score. You can remain in the Troll’s cave and gather diamonds, or take a greater risk by trying to open the door to the Dragon’s room.

To enter the Dragon’s room, you need to roll a key and a door. Once inside, the focus shifts to precious golden dice and a frantic attempt to collect as many golden nuggets as possible. The more you push your luck, the more treasure you may gain—but stopping at the right moment is essential.

  • Stay in the Troll’s cave to collect diamonds.
  • Roll a key and a door to enter the Dragon’s room.
  • Push your luck with the golden dice to gather nuggets.
  • Watch for opponents rolling two dragon faces, which makes you lose everything gathered in the Dragon’s room.

While one player tries to build a valuable haul, the other players roll the dragon dice, hoping to wake the beast and wipe out that player’s treasure. The table stays involved as every decision becomes a choice between banking gains and chasing more.

With its quick turns, dramatic risks, and lively atmosphere, Troll & Dragon delivers a frenetic experience for the whole family. Will you stop in time, or will the dragon claim your treasure?
