Watch “Dice Miner Review - A Dice Drafting Board Game Of Dwarven Yahtzee,” a board game review for Dice Miner from GideonsGaming on BoardGameVideo.
Description provided by GideonsGaming on YouTube:
Dice Miner is a light, but interesting dice drafting board game with a super quick setup. The fancy vertical mountain is super cool and looks great when filled with dice. The fast setup, approachable learning curve, and familiar mechanics ought to make it a great gateway game.
Dice can only be drafted from the top of the mountain unless you roll a cheers dice and give it to another player, in which case they are too drunk to notice you take it from the sides! The variety of dice types lends a decent amount of strategy for a very light game, plus you get to roll your hoard after each round and that just feels awesome.

About Dice Miner, from BoardGameGeek:
The Dwarves once lived beneath three mighty mountains. After centuries of war they defeated their age-old enemies the Dragons. Moving to the surface, the Dwarves built magnificent cities and won renown for their heartening beer.
But the Dragons have returned. Now, the Dwarves must remember their roots, clear old tunnels, and return to ancient caverns while fighting their primeval foes.
In each of three rounds, custom dice are rolled onto the mountain. You are a Dwarf hero, drafting dice for your hoard. Scores are tallied after each round before you re-roll your dice and the mountain is refilled.
Ultimately, Dice Miner is a game about drafting the dice you covet, adding them to your hoard, and pushing your luck to build massive combos and score as many points as you can.
