About Dice Manor, from BoardGameGeek:
World-renowned property developers Mundane Manors Inc. are tired of making the same old boring "dream" homes! The corporate suits are looking to rebrand, and they've challenged you, their designers, to dream BIG and create the most lavish homes ever imagined.
The player who is able to build - and market - the most magnificent manor will be victorious!
Over four rounds, players will use their dice to bid for blueprints, earn advertising space, collect Inspiration tokens and give early tours of their manor. All leading up to the final round where it's time for the Grand Opening of their completed manors - in the hopes of earning the most praise from the community. The player who gets the most prestige (Victory Points) is the winner!
