Dungeons & Bricks is a custom board game created by Shiva.
Gameplay
At least, three players are required for this game, one of them is playing a role of narrator of the game, who decides, which treasures will be in a dungeon and where will they be placed, and controls non-playable characters. Other players create a party of four or less characters, mostly from Castle theme, and use them as their own units to walk in towns or villages and to travel through the dungeons.
Original LEGO Dice is used in the game. Dice roll decides how many steps will the player's party have, what damage will they cause to an enemy (level system of the game and weapons of choice provide basic attack damage of the unit, dice roll decides which multiplier will be used on the attack).
Units are creatable in the beginning of the game and in the taverns of the towns. To create a unit, player must choose their race, gender, then class, faction and some attributes. The game has level system, so units, after gaining EXP from defeating enemies, get level up and their attributes become stronger. Magic in the game is useable too. It is useable for every major class, however every major class has its own choice of spell. Custom classes provide player's own choice of spells.
