Few things beat the feeling of physically playing tabletop games. Sure, you could just roll a dice online on Google or even play Dungeons and Dragons (DnD) on ChatGPT, but it’s different when you have those objects and experiences in person. And frankly, these digital platforms can’t replicate the creativity behind the world’s weirdest dice.
Reset—weird dice is truly cool, with “weird” being one of the most endearing terms possible to describe the interesting creations of humankind. From handmade dice to 3D-printed ones, strap in for a relatively crazy list.
1. Arcana Core Dice

The Arcana Core Dice is a uniquely beautiful dice that’s made up of gold plating. It starts from a wax 3D print to get the intricate design in place. The internal core moves to reveal the number and produces the nicest bell sound when rolled.
2. Memento Mori D20

Just from looking at these dice, you’d think that it just looks like a rustic-themed set. However, the truth is that the Memento Mori D20 is made from human bones, sourced from retired skeletons used in medical universities. Sterling silver is added to the preserved bones to have the numbers stand out.
3. D20 Number Spinner Ring

If you’ve ever wanted a D20 on your finger, you can achieve that with this unique number spinner ring. It’s pretty functional with potential for personalization, like adding a birthstone or changing up the outer ring color. Fidget with it or let the ring land on your lucky number to have maximum luck.
4. Nebula Mini-hedral Nocturnal

Miniature dice can be strange for some people, but they can totally fit certain DnD characters, like gnomes or fairies. Plus, this variant can actually mimic stars when it’s dark, given that it’s gotten enough light exposure from either natural light or black light.
5. Double Dice

The double dice is an interesting take on the regular six-sided die, as it holds a smaller die within the plastic. You could have a rule that requires you to follow the inner die’s roll, or that it adds up to the number of the outer die’s roll. Just remember to look a little closer if you’re going on the first one, because you might get excited over the wrong roll.
6. Coffee Bean Dice Set

The Coffee Bean Dice set is one of the perfect gifts to give any caffeine-loving tabletop gamer. Rest assured, the real coffee beans within the die are encased in clear resin, so it should retain the same appearance. One nice little detail is how the font type and color complement the color of the beans.
7. D20 Compass

There are numerous options where the objects that represent a character are made into dice, like the lock and pick for a rogue or a witch’s hat for the wizard. While the D20 compass was made for rangers, it still feels appropriate for just about any travel-related DnD campaign. Plus, the spinning motion is simply too good.
8. Ball Dice

Having balls for the dice can be one of the weirdest plays, but it actually works well in a dice tray and prevents cheating. These are also weighted on the inside, so rest assured, it’ll actually show a proper number when rolling.
9. Skew Dice

Skew dice feel a little cursed because of how distorted and wacky they look, but they do work in displaying a number. If you prefer flat and congruent faces over the balls, this white dice set may just be the one for you.
10. D2/3/4 MultiDice

The D2/3/4 MultiDice can be read in so many formats, which makes it ideal for veteran tabletop gamers with the most experience. Granted, if you are busting this out when playing with a newer player, it requires more explanation and handholding.
11. Googly Eyed Dice

The googly-eyed dice may be one of the goofiest, but also cutest options to add to your dice collection. The eyes may protrude a little bit, which means that they’ll land a little tilted when rolled and have a higher chance of rolling twos, fours and fives. But hey, the eyes move.
12. Tooth D4 Dice

Hands down, one of the weirdest dice, especially since the tooth die actually replicates life-sized molars. There are all-white options, which are slightly more bearable than the painted, bloodier-looking variants.
13. F Word Dice Set

Ever had those moments when the dice fail to have your best interest at heart and screws you over? These crystal resin dice look like a typically shimmery set until you read the inscribed F word, which is nothing short of hilarious.
14. Crushable D20 Fidget Dice

Another dice that you can rage with is the crushable D20 fidget dice. Squeeze it after a failed roll or when you get the roll that you needed. Returning it to normal can require a little bit of finessing between each squeeze.
15. Big Squishy Dice

If you wanted a dice that you can solidly squish every single roll, consider the big squishy dice. It’s made out of soft silicone that offers the most satisfying squashing. While it’s not really sticky, you can wash it with warm water and soap. Add baby powder if needed.
16. Scrambled Dice

Whether you’re playing a nostalgic board game or raging at your first DnD encounter, these scrambled dice just add a little spice to the experience. They’re strange enough while seeming pretty familiar. Granted, it can ruin anyone who’s overly fixated on things being in the right order.
17. Rick Rolled DND Dice

An excellent dice for anyone who appreciates the memes or unserious DnD campaigns. Anyone who sees this dice will immediately get that legendary song stuck in their head for the rest of the day, which feels like the whole point of it.
