for research purposes (thinking of making my ttrpg d6 only and curious as to how accesible that actually is) how many six sided dice could you find in your house right now if you had to look? id love to hear both from tabletop gamers and from non tabletop gamers

on my desk right now? about 70

i did have a small plastic bottle full of tiny d6s a few millimeters big i called my emergency entropy, but i appear to have misplaced it. there were over 200 dice in that iirc

good news: emergency entropy located

bad news: i grossly overestimated my reserves, there's only 94 dice in here ;_;

ttrpg guy, there are 72d6 in relatively accessible containers in this room right now. There's another box with like another seventy if I went looking for it. There's several smaller dice pouches, etc. that I would have to search harder for, and ?? in various family board game boxes

Am a gamer with a history of playing Warhammer, Mobile Frame Zero, Pbta and fitd. Just in front of me on my desk I can see about 30. If I looked around, I could easily double, possibly triple that number.

Oh, and I have a small bottle of tiny dice somewhere, which technically would add another 100, but they're too small for normal use.

i have probably 20

as a fellow TTRPG designer, i had a similar thought, but since are so cheap and easy to get that i am not sure limiting them is worth it for the reason of cost, if you want accessibility and this is a real concern then a non-dice solution would probably be better, not a not of people have board games anymore

cards, pieces of paper from a hat, a spinner, etc

thats a lot! i was really suprised for a moment until i remember we literally have 100d6 on our desk in a lil baggy right now. they take up less space than you think ig lmao.

thanks for the input!
