The bookworm is looking for his successor. He is testing the players as likely candidates in this game by having them go through a plethora of different categories. In each category they must find fitting words, such that they match a die in the display or in front of another player. A special die mixes things up as it provides bonus points, minus points or a new theme. Players have to secure the most valuable dice for themselves and steal their opponents' dice. Whoever earns 21 points first, wins.

Bookworm - The Dice Game brings new twists to the Bookworm gameplay while keeping its core. The cards of both Bookworm - The Card Game and Bookworm - The Dice Game can be used for each other.
