Virtual dice roller for d6, d20, 2d6, and custom dice

A virtual dice roller is useful for common formats such as d6, d8, d12, d20, and multi-dice rolls like 2d6. It is a quick option when you want the feel of dice notation without needing physical dice nearby.

It is useful beyond board games and RPGs. Teachers, group leaders, and hobbyists can use it for random prompts, classroom exercises, probability examples, and simple decision-making.

Dice notation and online roll examples

In dice notation, the first number is how many dice to roll and the second is the number of sides. For example, 2d6 means two six-sided dice, while 1d20 means one twenty-sided die. Enter those values directly in the form to reproduce the roll.

Use d4, d6, d8, d10, d12, and d20 for common tabletop formats, or set a custom side count for probability exercises and games with unusual dice.

Frequently asked questions

Can I roll multiple dice at once?

Can I roll a d20 online?

Yes. Set the number of sides to 20 to use the tool as a d20 roller.

How do I roll 2d6 online?

Set the number of dice to 2 and the sides per die to 6. The roller will show both d6 results and their combined total.

When should I use a dice roller instead of a random number generator?

Use the dice roller when you want a familiar dice format with visible rolls and totals. Use a general number generator when you only need a single result from a numeric range.
