How to play
Pick one kind of die and how many you want, then roll them all at once. The roller shows every die and adds them up for you.
- Choose a die under Dice, from the four-sided d4 through d6, d8, d10 and d12 to the twenty-sided d20.
- Set How many dice you want, up to 10, with the − and + buttons.
- Hit Roll, or the spacebar.
- Each die shows its face, with the sum under Total. Recent rolls are listed below for as long as the page is open.
Controls
- Roll: the button, or Space once the game has focus.
- Dice: tap the kind you need.
- How many: minus and plus, from 1 to 10 dice.
Tips
- Many family board games use 2d6: two six-sided dice added together.
- Role-playing games at the table tend to need every die in the set, and many roll the d20 for checks.
- With two six-sided dice, 7 is the most likely total: six of the 36 combinations add up to it.
- Physical d10s usually mark ten as 0. Here it reads 10, so the total never needs adjusting.
FAQ
What does the d in d6 or d20 mean?
It stands for die, and the number counts its sides: a d6 is a normal six-sided cube, a d20 has twenty sides. In written rolls, 3d6 means roll three six-sided dice and add them up.
Are the rolls fair?
Yes. Each die uses crypto.getRandomValues, the browser's cryptographic random source, so every face is equally likely and no roll depends on the last.
Can I roll different dice together?
Not in one roll: each roll uses one kind of die. Roll your d20, then switch to the d6 for the next roll.
Can I use the dice roller at school?
There's nothing to download or install, so it works in Chrome on a school Chromebook. The school's network still decides which sites load. If this one is blocked, ask a teacher or the IT team, and skip proxy or unblocker sites, which break school rules and often carry malware.
