Recommend

I love dice! I collect dice and also games with special dice.
This list is a compilation of games with special dice.

d10-2

Note that most of my favorite games, such as Agricola, Carcassonne, and Puerto Rico do not involve dice. I purchase dice game for family gatherings or quick fillers.

d10-3

I have many more dice that are outside the scope of BGG and not part of any specific game. They would be too numerous to list here.

d10-4

Photos are courtesy of other Board Game Geeks, unless otherwise noted.

d10-5

Note that entries on this list are dice related items. Though they may not directly be dice, I felt that they should be part of this list.

d10-6

Please feel free to add your recommendations to this list. I realize that there are hundreds of games out there with specialty dice and that this list is not comprehensive.
If you do add a game, please also add a medium-size picture of the dice.
Please put in your message: [imageid=xxxxxxxmedium] where xxxxxx is the number of the picture that you would like to display.
In some cases, the picture may be too small and will not display as a medium-size picture. In that case, just simply eliminate the word medium. If there are several small pictures that better displays the dice, please feel free to add them.

d10-7

Games that I own are listed with the graphic:

My goal is to list the best picture I can find for each of these games. So if you add a game: Please do the best you can to add an accompanying picture that best represents the dice.

d10-9

This list is always under construction.

Liar's Dice comes in many forms. This is the Simpson's version.

Also note that some forms of this game are packaged in a very nice box designed like a die!

Yes. I remember that puzzle, but it is nothing compared to the permanent insanity of a dice collector!

I actually own two different sets of non-transitive dice.
However, I have decided to keep this list focused on special dice that come with games / or are directly related to games.

Thanks for the pointers, however!

This is how I spent my supporter bonus Geek Gold. With more support I could have had both Over Texts.

I just found an old bag of loose dice, these were inside it in a small baggy. Any idea what these dice are for? The purple ones have 4 of the circular design and 2 of the bat like design. The red one had 3 of the circle, 1 bat, 1 eye or possible paw print, and 1 lightning bolt.

It might not be the only game that uses those dice, but the Hercules & Xena RPG is a candidate.
