You have been transported to the Dyadic, a parallel world where strange, nocturnal beasts with glowing eyes hunt you out at night. You must collect the right resources in order to re open the portal and return home. The game is played in rounds, with each round consisting of a Day phase and a Night phase. In the Day phase, the three dice are rolled to determine what resources are available and the players draft cards based on the resources. In the Night phase any cards not drafted are flipped over to reveal the monsters and the dice are re-rolled to determine the strength and health of the beasts. The players then fight off the monsters to survive. The rounds continue until a player has collected the correct set of cards. Dyadic is a game for 2 to 3 players. -description from designer
