Dicey Operations looks like a fun game.  I haven’t played it, but it seems like some of the games that other classes have super enjoyed.   I think this game is for those of you who are up for a challenge and who have fun thinking things through.  I think we have a lot of those kids in our class.   Once you get the hang of it,  you’ll like this  fun challenge.  Have fun playing Dicey Operations.
