Perfect for Dungeons & Dragons, Pathfinder and any other tabletop role-playing game, board games and quick decisions. 3D DICE Real 3D dice that tumble and land on your result.

MODIFIERS Turn the Digital Crown or tap + and − to add a modifier. Add it once to the total, or to every roll. YOUR COLORS Choose a color for each die and for its numbers from the presets, or mix your own custom color.
