Effective working dice can be made for any number of sides. What you do is make it an n-polygonal prism, put the numbers on the sides, and then roll it like a log. Obviously needs more sides than 6 or so, or it does not roll. Also you really need an even number of sides or you don't get a unique number on the top. But such "dice" are a thing in certain specialised games. --Lias Bluestone (talk) 09:56, 2 November 2020 (UTC)
