In No Thank You, Evil!, each player creates a character based on a couple of cool, descriptive, imagination-firing traits. The Guide (a special role often played by a parent or older sibling) presents a dilemma, and the players set off on an adventure of the imagination. Along the way they use their character\u2019s special skills, companions, and equipment to overcome obstacles\u2014perhaps fighting a slime monster, winning over the suspicious mayor, or beating a rabbit at a race.<\/p>\n<p>Whereas conventional board games constrain players\u2019 actions, No Thank You, Evil! sets kids\u2019 imaginations free: Their options are limited only by what they can think up. Together, the players create a story as they work together to make their way through the adventure!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.kickstarter.com\/projects\/1811420414\/terralith-organic-metal-rpg-dice?ref=users\"><strong>Terralith Organic Metal Dice<\/strong><\/a><br \/>\nThese are some pretty neat looking dice, and would be nice to add to any collection.

The Gods may help you, or use you as a pawn in their schemes. Your friends may help you, or pull you deeper into trouble.
