Dice Roller

Roll virtual dice for games, decision making, and random number generation

Roll Configuration
What is a Dice Roller?

A dice roller is a digital simulation tool that generates random numbers corresponding to physical dice outcomes using algorithmic randomisation. Our comprehensive dice roller supports all standard polyhedral dice types from D4 through D100, enabling virtual dice rolling for tabletop gaming, probability education, and decision-making scenarios without requiring physical dice sets.

How to Use This Digital Dice Roller

  1. Select your dice type: choose from D4, D6, D8, D10, D12, D20, or D100 polyhedral dice
  2. Set the number of dice to roll simultaneously (1-20 dice supported)
  3. Click the "Roll Dice" button to generate instant random results
  4. View individual die results and automatic total calculation
  5. Use the copy function to save results to your clipboard
  6. Check roll history to review previous dice combinations

Polyhedral Dice Types Explained

Standard Gaming Dice

D4 (Tetrahedron): Four-sided pyramid dice generating 1-4 values, commonly used for small damage rolls and minor probability events.

D6 (Cube): Six-sided standard dice generating 1-6 values, the most familiar dice type used in board games and basic probability.

D8 (Octahedron): Eight-sided dice generating 1-8 values, frequently used for medium damage calculations and expanded probability ranges.

Advanced Gaming Dice

D10 (Pentagonal Trapezohedron): Ten-sided dice generating 1-10 values, ideal for percentage calculations and decimal probability systems.

D12 (Dodecahedron): Twelve-sided dice generating 1-12 values, used for high-damage weapons and extended probability ranges.

D20 (Icosahedron): Twenty-sided dice generating 1-20 values, the signature die of D&D for skill checks and attack rolls.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the dice roller ensure truly random results?

Our dice roller uses JavaScript's cryptographically secure pseudorandom number generator that produces statistically unbiased results suitable for gaming and educational applications.

Can I roll different dice types simultaneously?

Currently, each roll session supports multiple dice of the same type. To roll different dice types, perform separate rolls using the dice type selector.

Is this dice roller suitable for official RPG gameplay?

Yes! Our dice roller provides statistically equivalent results to physical dice and is accepted by most gaming groups for digital D&D sessions and online tabletop gaming.

How many dice can I roll at once?

You can roll up to 20 dice simultaneously of the same type, with individual results displayed plus automatic total calculation for convenience.
