MotionX Dice for the iPhone or iPod Touch get’s it almost right

This is almost the dice app I’ve been searching for!  It looks amazingly pretty, the dice actually roll on screen with a flip of your phone or pod, the sounds are good, and it even rolls higher than a 5 on six sided dice!  You can skin your dice in various ways to play good old 6 sided games, poker or what have you.

The only thing this app doesn’t do well, or at all, is give you different dice.  You’re stuck in parlor game, six sided limbo unfortuna<br />tely.

And we were so close!

The app is free and I’d suggest you get it anyway since it’s so pretty.

    Unless we are Traveller or GURPS or maybe even D6 fans!

    Actually, it would also work with the Burning Wheel games (which will be reviewed here in a few weeks). It’s a d6 game that works with dice pools. But you’d need 3 or 4 iPhones.
