This is a call for help. I am addicted to Dice Wars. Let me give you some back story. When I was in college, instead of going to parties and talking to girls, I hung out with a group of fellow nerds on the weekends, ate Kentucky Fried Chicken and played a ridiculous amount of Risk (or NHL 94 on the Genesis). While I don't necessarily miss the people, I miss the fun.

That's probably why I'm like a skin and bone crackhead for Dice Wars. After giving up the nerd hangouts, and the fried chicken, all I have left is some speedy approximation of those nights playing Risk. Dice Wars isn't exactly the same thing, merely a randomized hexagonal map with some simple, but deep, turn based strategy. We don't normally talk about freeware or Flash games, but I'm willing to make an exception to get you kids hooked on a little weekend "fun". Michael McWhertor
