This project is a simple dice rolling web app for gameplay when you don't have any dice around.
It also has some tools for game designers.
Being an RNG created for simplicity, understand that the data is not statistically perfect and should be used only for fun.
Just access the live version, select a die and click to roll.
If you need a custom dice use the expressions.
You can create custom expressions clicking the "..." button.
- To roll a number:
Dn- This will roll a random number between 1 and n.
- The n can be negative, so the roll will be between -1 and -n.
- To roll a group:
Dn,Dn- Multiple dices can be separated with commas, each die will roll a random number between 1 and n.
- To sum a group:
Dn+Dn- Using a + sign will sum the random numbers between 1 and n.
- You can't sum custom dice, because they are strings.
- You can sum negative die.
- To create custom dice:
D(x1;x2;...xn)- You can create sides with custom static values. The die will roll a random between 1 and n.
- x is a string, so you can use words, chars, static numbers, emojis, html symbols.
- To create an incrementation roll:
I(n;x)- This will roll a simple incrementation by n, starting at x.
- To roll a number inside a range:
R(min;max)- This will roll a random number between min and max (included).
Cases:
- If you need to roll 0s, you can create a custom die, like
D(0;1;2;3;4;5;6); or roll a range, likeR(0;6).

Any history can be shared.
By clicking in the "Replay Link" you will generate a link to replay the exactly same history in the same order.
So the designer or the players can share an awesome experience with friends to see their results with that history.
This was made because I needed this tool to design some games.
So I want to share with other game designers.
