WHAT IS BUTTON MEN?
Button Men is a quick-playing strategy game for one or two players where the goal is to capture your opponents dice while protecting your own. What makes Button Men unique is the set of characters you choose to fight with. Each artistically rendered character has their own unique strengths and weakness adding a deep level of strategy that will leave you saying “Just one more game!”
Players choose a character and take turns capturing each other's dice using a combination of Power, Skill, Poison and Shadow attacks:
POWER ATTACK: One of your dice of equal or greater value than one of your opponent's dice. 
SKILL ATTACK: Several of your dice add up exactly to the value on one of your opponent's dice. 
POISON ATTACK: Worth negative points. Force your opponent to capture it and see them lose points. If you keep your own you lose its full size in points.
SHADOW ATTACK: Capture an enemy die that is equal to or greater than your own.  
It takes a great deal of strategy as well as good luck to win a game of Button Men.

Button Men won the Origins Award for Best Abstract Board Game of 1999, and the paper version spawned dozens of expansions with hundreds of different characters. This edition includes 24 characters and special rules for Shadow Dice and Poison Dice, with expansions soon to come.
