Rory’s Story Cubes: creativity on the go

I was at a family party when my niece showed me a game that she had recently discovered: Rory’s Story Cubes. To be honest, I was sceptical at first. Nine dice with pictures on them - how exciting can that be? But when we started playing, they proved me wrong. The little game actually kept us busy for hours and really tested our creativity.

What are Rory’s Story Cubes?

Rory’s Story Cubes is a simple but ingenious game consisting of nine cubes. Each side of the dice shows a different symbol or picture. The aim of the game is simple: you roll the dice and use the symbols rolled to tell a story together. There are no right or wrong answers – only your own imagination is the limit.

The cubes come in a compact box that fits in any pocket. So you can always have them to hand, whether you’re traveling, in the waiting room or simply at home on the sofa. The game is suitable for all ages and can be played alone or in a group. It requires no elaborate preparation and the rules are explained in just a few seconds, making it an ideal game for when you’re on the go.

Different versions

A special feature of Rory’s Story Cubes is the variety of available editions. In addition to the classic set, there are numerous versions on various themes, such as fantasy, action, travel and more. Each edition adds new symbols and therefore countless more possibilities for creative stories. This variety keeps the game fresh and exciting, as you can always try out new combinations.

Promoting creativity

One of the biggest advantages of Rory’s Story Cubes is that they encourage creativity. The first time you throw, you might think: «What am I supposed to do with them?» But that’s exactly when the fun starts. The symbols can be interpreted in many different ways and inspire you to invent the wildest stories. It’s exciting to see how different the stories can turn out depending on who rolls the dice.

My niece and I made up stories about brave adventures, talking animals and mysterious islands. Every game is different and often surprising. It’s a great way for children to develop their imagination and express themselves better linguistically. But it also offers a refreshing change from everyday life for adults and can certainly be used as creative writing training.

Ideal for on the go

Another major advantage is the compactness of the game. The box is small and robust, perfect to take anywhere. Whether on long car journeys, on the train or on the plane – Rory’s Story Cubes are quickly unpacked and ready for use. They hardly take up any space and are a welcome change from the usual, often bulky travel games.
