How it works

6-sided
Roll one six-sided die with history and quick re-rolls.

Dice Pool
Add d4, d6, d8, d10, d12, or d20 dice (up to 20), remove dice by clicking them, then use Roll to roll all dice at once.

Randomness

6-sided mode uses a pseudo-random function where repeated same outcomes become less likely over consecutive rolls.

What the different dice are for

The dice pool includes the standard set used in tabletop roleplaying games like Dungeons & Dragons. Each die shape has a distinct role:
  • d4: Small damage dice (daggers, magic missiles). Four-sided and notoriously uncomfortable to step on.
  • d6: The everyday die. Used in D&D for shortswords and fireballs, and the foundation of games like Yahtzee, Monopoly, Risk, and Catan.
  • d8: Mid-tier weapons (longswords, war axes). Also used in some narrative RPG systems as a general-purpose die.
  • d10: Damage for heavier weapons; also used in pairs to roll a d100 (percentile dice), where one die represents tens and the other units.
  • d12: The rarest standard die in actual play. Associated with the barbarian's greataxe in D&D, and oddly satisfying to roll given how infrequently it comes up.
  • d20: The iconic die of D&D. Used for almost every action check (attacking, sneaking, persuading, jumping). Rolling a natural 20 is a critical hit; a natural 1 is a critical failure.
