Zero Day Dice

Zero Day Dice is perfect for security professionals, tabletop enthusiasts, or anyone looking for a strategic game that feels authentic to the world of IT.

Zero Day Dice is a competitive, strategic card and dice game where players face off in a high-stakes digital battle. This is a game of bluffing, smart planning, and tactical counter-measures designed by a cyber security freelancer. 

You play on one of two teams, each leveraging authentic, real-world tactics:

🔴 The Red Team attacks the system using exploits like Ransomware Attacks, Phishing, and Zero-Day Exploits.

🔵 The Blue Team defends the system by deploying powerful countermeasures such as Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA), Immutable Backups, and Threat Intelligence.

 -- Game play is simple to learn but rewards deep strategy. All Players choose one action card each round, trying to anticipate their opponent's move.

• Authentic Cyber Tactics: Play with 48 unique actions and counters that reflect actual IT and security procedures.

• Specialized Cyber Roles: Choose one of six unique roles—like the Malware Engineer or the SOC Analyst—to gain a crucial proficiency bonus on key actions.

Tense Dice Battles: When an attack isn't directly countered, the outcome is decided by a roll-off. The roll is modified by your Cyber Role and the system's current Security Posture (things like Patch Management or Awareness).
