Dungeons and Dragons<\/strong> has attracted some of the most passionate and talented nerds on the planet.\u00a0 All the wonderful fan art and ever-expanding homebrew campaigns are proof of that creative spark. Sometimes, these projects may even fulfill a niche that no DnD fan thought they needed before. Realdice.org<\/strong> is one such project, and it’s a blast to play with.\n<\/p>\n

Created by u\/Lazy_Hovercraft_420<\/a> on Reddit, Realdice.org<\/a> is yet another DnD dice rolling app. While these apps are a dime a dozen, what makes Realdice.org stand out is that it’s a digital app that actually rolls a physical die. The creator has a 24\/7 camera trained on a 20-sided die, which users can roll at any time through the website.<\/p>\n

What makes the project so charming to me is how jank the setup is. It’s a basic $10 dice roller<\/a> placed on some random desk with very visible wires. At peak hours, the dice essentially never stop rolling, which makes it a poor app for use in actual campaigns.\u00a0 I thankfully managed to capture my Nat 20 roll before it was unceremoniously replaced by a meager seven.<\/p>\n

Personally, I find the overcomplication of a physical dice roll a real rib tickler. I’ve never been one for dice rollers, towers, and what-have-you, but I can’t deny how fun they are to play with. I always appreciate the passion DnD fans have for the game, especially with silly little projects like this.<\/p>\n

The creator continues to improve upon the concept, such as increasing video resolution and framerate.\u00a0 The site is rather stable now, so if you feel like killing a few minutes, give the app a few rolls.\u00a0 As of this writing, the app has rolled 18,700 times. Yours truly was the 18,700th roll.<\/p>\n

The less said about that roll, the better.<\/p>\n

In the market for a new DnD party? The Wargamer Discord<\/a> has plenty of dice-rolling DnD fans to talk to. If you’d rather stay on top of DnD releases, the DnD release schedule<\/a> should get you caught up.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Dungeons and Dragons has attracted some of the most passionate and talented nerds on the planet.\u00a0 All the…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":20861,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[74],"tags":[17960,18,19,17,17961,17962,82],"class_list":{"0":"post-20860","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-technology","8":"tag-dungeons-and-dragons","9":"tag-eire","10":"tag-ie","11":"tag-ireland","12":"tag-rpg","13":"tag-tabletop","14":"tag-technology"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20860","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=20860"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20860\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/20861"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=20860"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=20860"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=20860"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
