Last year I posted about MachDice, a dice-rolling tool for the iPhone. Today I stumbled upon a similar tool for Windows or OSX called “Rock’n’Roll“. This nice looking program was created by Mad Ogre Games and has the following features (I quote the official site):
- Features over 30 backgrounds by various artists
- 12 different dice textures to choose from
- Pick any kind of dice combination
- Dice results displayed in two different ways
- Realistic dice rolling physics
- Totally random number generation
- Dice thrown via Physics Engine
If you have left your dice at home but you have your laptop with you, this program could come in handy but I will probably stick to MachDice on the iPhone.
But Rock’n’Roll has one advantage over MachDice: it’s free!
Too bad I don't have an iPhone (and they don't have a Windows dev kit). I do have a BlackBerry, so I wonder if there are any dice rolling apps for it? *goes to Google*
