Abstract
Dice with pips that can be rearranged by the player to alter chances of throwing a given number are described. Dice are built from tetrahedral components, which rotate relative to each other. A special pip design renders the rotatable structure compatible with displaying numbers from 1 to 6 in the basic state (Figure 1). When pips are rearranged, numbers from 0 to 6 can be displayed and numbers from 1 to 6 can be absent, displayed once or twice or more in a given rearrangement state. Unique pip distributions on tetrahedral components of the dice allowing maximal variability are described. Bases of games using dice with rearrangeable pips are also introduced.
