About: Dice

Simple and free Dice roll. For games with friends in board games.


Dice (singular die or dice; from Old French déh; from Latin datum "something which is given or played") are small throwable objects that can rest in multiple positions, used for generating random numbers. Dice are suitable as gambling devices for games like craps and are also used in non-gambling tabletop games.





A traditional die is a cube, with each of its six faces showing a different number of dots (pips) from one to six. When thrown or rolled, the die comes to rest
showing on its upper surface a random integer from one to six, each value being equally likely. A variety of similar devices are also described as dice; such specialized
dice may have polyhedral or irregular shapes and may have faces marked with symbols instead of numbers. They may be used to produce results other than one through six. Loaded and crooked dice are designed to favor some results over others for purposes of cheating or amusement.

A dice tray, a tray used to contain thrown dice, is sometimes used for gambling or board games, in particular to allow dice throws which do not interfere with other game pieces.
