Each year as the mid-summer festival begins, the seven panda clans gather to celebrate their many years of peace and prosperity. After all the feasts, stories, and games, the Elders host the annual competition wherein the bravest of all pandas gather to battle for honor and glory. The panda clans each have their own powers and abilities, and the Elders consider those strengths carefully as they assemble their teams. In the dice-drafting game Panda Royale, each player starts with a single yellow die, and over ten rounds builds a hand of ten dice to earn the most points, with each color of dice having its own scoring properties. Players vie for the best drafting order to pick from the allotted dice each round. This quick-paced game can play up to ten players, and games play in 20-30 minutes. —description from the publisher
