FAQ

Why is 7 the most common 2d6 roll?

There are 36 ways two dice can land, and six of them add up to 7 (1+6, 2+5, 3+4 and their reverses) — more than any other total. Extremes like 2 and 12 have only one combination each, which is why the results form a peak at 7.

Are these 2d6 rolls really random?

Yes. Each die uses your browser’s cryptographic random generator with rejection sampling, so every face has an exactly equal chance — no modulo bias, no loaded dice.

Does this dice roller run in my browser?

Yes. Every roll happens locally on your device — nothing is uploaded and it works offline once the page has loaded.
