About

Dice Shaker AR

Features
Read full description

A simple dice shaking game - with a twist. You can get random dice in 2D or use Augmented Reality to roll dice in your own room - virtually. Shake the phone or click roll to see what numbers your die will come up as. You can also randomly change the colour of the die. Why play with plain old red die when you could have bright purple or yellow. With the two die random game you could play Chicago, Pig or many more. It randomly generates two six sided die. You could just use it to challenge your friends with a game of ‘guess how much they will add up too’. With the Augmented Reality game you can roll as many dice as you like - just hold the phone over a flat surface, wait for the red board to appear and click on the screen to roll the dice. You can roll as many as you like.
