IceDice is a very easy, quick-playing press-your-luck game for two or more players. The game uses 1 [[Treehouse set]] for each player along with a special pair of dice, the eponymous IceDice. It's best with 2 players, but more players can be added with more sets.
The game along with [[Twin Win]] made up [[Product/Ice Duo|Ice Duo]] in the [[Pyramid Quartet]]
The game is currently sold by Looney Labs as the cornerstone of the Pyramid franchise, with 2 rainbow sets, both dice, and a lovely pyramid-shaped cloth bag. It's best with 2 players, but more players can be added with more sets.▼

== History ==
'''IceDice''' (''formerly known as IceGlotz-17'') is a Looney pyramid game designed by [[Andrew Looney]]. It was slated as the new pyramid sales vehicle, scheduled to be published in Autumn 2011. Shipment was delayed by a couple months, due to packaging issues
It was the first Looney game to be packaged in the new cloth, pyramidal bags. It was also the first Looney game to use parts manufactured in China.
