Fleet: The Dice Game is a masterclass in the 'Roll and Write' genre. It takes the deep, engine-building strategy of the original Fleet board game and condenses it into a dice-driven experience that works perfectly on a mobile screen. The digital implementation handles all the complex bookkeeping for you, allowing you to focus purely on the strategic decisions of which fishing licenses to pursue.

The game is deceptively deep—every die you pick has a ripple effect on your future turns. Do you focus on the harbor to get more boats, or go for the town hall to unlock powerful passive bonuses? The AI is surprisingly tough, and the 'Solo' mode offers a great challenge for players who want to test their efficiency. It’s a clean, fast, and intellectually stimulating game that proves you don't need complex 3D graphics to have a premium experience.

I appreciate a good board game port. Fleet: The Dice Game is clean, efficient, and doesn't mess with the source material. It’s a game of 'engines'—you build up your abilities to score more points later.

It’s a bit dry, sure. It’s mostly looking at spreadsheets and icons. But the underlying math is satisfying. If you like board games but don't have anyone to play with, this digital version is a very conservative, safe bet.

    Fleet: The Dice Game is an exciting new strategic roll and write dice game from the creators of Fleet! Fleet: The Dice Game is heavier than many roll and write games and captures the tense, meaningful decisions of Fleet.

    In Fleet: The Dice Game, you are back in beautiful Ridback Bay to reap its rewards! Fleet: The Dice Game takes place over 10 rounds with each round having two phases, the Boat Phase and the Town Phase.

    In the boat phase, the active player rolls players plus one boat dice. In turn order, each player selects one die to use immediately. By selecting a boat die, they get to check off the matching boat type on their sheet - unlocking license powers and boat launches to catch fish. The die that remains after all players have selected is then used by all players.

    In the town phase, you roll town dice equal to players plus one boat die. Again, in turn order each player selects one die to use immediately. In the town phase, you unlock special buildings in the Wharf that grant bonuses, awesome ships in the harbor to earn points and catch more fish, or go to the market and gain income to generate bonus actions. The die that remains after all players have selected is then used by all players.

    Fishing occurs between phases in the even rounds and the player with the most points at game end wins!

    Fleet: The Dice Game also features a fully integrated solo mode where you battle Captain Ruth to earn the most points and reap the rewards of Ridback Bay. Current ranking 7.8 on Boardgame Geek.


    Requires iOS 11.0 or later. Compatible with iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch.
