What Can I Play?: Difference between revisions

 

Interested in exploring the wider world of Pyramid games? With [[Browse_games/All|{{#ask: [[Status::!Hidden]] | format=count}}]] games currently recorded on this wiki, it can sometimes be difficult and overwhelming to figure out what to try next. This page is intended to serve as a navigational chart to help players, new and old alike, find quality games. It has been carefully compiled and curated by experienced [[Starship Captain|Starship Captains]] over the last '''{{#expr:{{formatnum:{{CURRENTYEAR}}|R}}-2007}} years'''. Not all of the games may be a good fit for your particular group, but each is notable in its own way. So, regardless of whether you have the opulent [[Pyramid Arcade]], an older IceDice bag, or even some of the venerable [[Treehouse set|Treehouse tubes]], hopefully you will find something below that can give you hours (or at least minutes) of enjoyment.
