Is someone confused by Tide pods going to try and eat their dice and cause Raven & Riddle some bother?
The Iowa City-based company has released and hit the target for Charcuterie or dice good enough to eat. Raven & Riddle are clear, though, saying, repeatedly, don’t eat the dice. Are you tempted?
They will hurt if you try to eat them. They only look like food.
There are 8 designs of tasty dice, mix and match as an authentic charcuterie would be, and I’m hungry now. Stretch goals will unlock more.
I’ve been told, over and over again, that my dice “look good enough to eat,” and I took that as a challenge. On today’s menu, Raven & Riddle brings you the culinary fakery of Forbidden Snacks: Charcuterie, a smorgasbord of umami-impersonating math rocks that will add sophistication to your table. We all know the important role that good snacks and good dice can play when we set off on our TTRPG adventures. So, with this set of INEDIBLE dice, let our rolls feast on salami stealth, prosciutto persuasion, arcana cornichons, pepper jack perception, and acrobatic olives.
The pledges are presented as a menu, and I know some words! I r cultured!
$5/Aperitif gets you a set of stickers as a reward for backing the campaign.
The first dice, though, the highly useful d20 is the Hors d’oeurves $13 tier.
Then there’s Amuse-bouche at $65 for the full set of 8-gamer dice with the stickers too. At $124 there’s the antipasti tier with two sets of dice, $180 the Primi with three sets, $232 aka Contorni for four and Plat du jour at $336 for 6 sets of eat-me-but-don’t-eat-me dice.
Does it stop there? Nope. You can secure up to 20 sets as thank-you offerings for your campaign support.
The gotcha is this; all the dice are limited in number, some in their hundreds but more severely. The dice have an estimated delivery of May 2023 as well.
