About

PolyDice

Features
Read full description

PolyDice is the dice roller that knows what game you're playing. Unlike generic dice apps, PolyDice renders every die exactly as it looks on the table — geometric shapes with authentic game symbols, not generic dots. Whether you're investigating eldritch mysteries in Mansions of Madness, delving into dungeons in HeroQuest, or rolling a stealth check on a d20, every die looks the part. FEATURES • Geometric dice — d4 through d20 rendered as their real face shapes (triangles, squares, diamonds, hexagons, decagons) • Authentic game symbols — Mansions of Madness 2nd Edition and HeroQuest 1989 dice use actual icon assets, not approximations • Four game modes: – Generic: standard RPG dice (d3, d4, d6, d8, d10, d12, d20) with numeric results – Mansions of Madness: red d8 dice with Elder Sign / Magnifying Glass / Blank faces and symbol counts – HeroQuest: gold d6 combat dice with Skull / Hero Shield / Monster Shield faces and symbol counts – Mixed Tray: combine dice from different game presets in one roll, with per-preset result breakdown • Multi-remove mode — long-press any die to enter remove mode. All dice show an X button with a subtle wobble. Tap individual X buttons to remove multiple dice at once, tap outside to exit • Selective Reroll — after rolling, tap any dice to highlight them, then reroll only the selected ones. Gold border marks your picks, unselected dice stay put • Step Roll — roll dice one at a time instead of all at once. Perfect for tense skill checks, attack sequences, or any moment where each die matters • Dice sounds — realistic multi-dice and single-die roll audio with randomized pitch variants. Toggle on/off from settings • Up to 9 dice with animated roll (shake, rotation, glow) • Dark minimalist UI — no distractions, just your results PolyDice requires iOS 17 or later.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: PolyDice at none against Grid's 5. Grid's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 17.0). On price, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.
