I was looking for an app that would do a D3. It was beyond my expectation to see it on a D6 (11-22-33) expecting it on a unnumbered with question marks. this app will work for Shadowrun. Shadowrun requires a large quantity of D6. Caping out at about 40. It also requires counting how many dice land on what. this app does a nice job of keeping track of that. Tho There are other apps that are made for shadowrun this one will work and looks better.

@brennjames206 Thanks! I'm glad that the d3 worked out for you. You can also use the d3 as fudge dice (-1, -1, 0, 0, 1, 1) by toggling the option in settings, which I've found handy for a FATE system campaign that I'm in now.

I think your app is awesome! But many people like me play games who need personalized dices like memoir 44, heroscape or battlelore. Do you have planned an update to custom this kind of dices?

Also I play several games that use d6 dices but with different values (i.e.: 1,1,2,2,3,3 or 1,2,2,2,3,3) Are you planning the possibility to assign values to each side?

@pinchoak As a matter of fact, I have thought about something along those lines for a long time. It's a little hard to find time to work on Mach Dice now that I have a baby (in addition to my regular full time job) but I do hope to allow for some sort of customization in the next version.

As for custom values, that's a bit trickier because it would make it easy to make cheating dice (like: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 6). For a d20, it'd be nearly impossible to detect. But I've got some ideas.

MOTIONX DICE is better than this and its free!!!

[MachWerx]

@joseno11 MotionX dice is indeed good at rolling up to six 6-sided dice. But what if you're cornered by an Eye of the Beholder and forced to make a d20 saving throw?! Or faced with a batallion of angry orcs who demand 30d6?! Well then, my friend, you might wish you had bought Mach Dice. Also, Mach Dice has a virtual 3D display.
