Can you tell which side faces up easily? From this pic it looks like the highest point is between three numbers. Could be the angle, but I'd like to see one in person

I have an earlier version of d100, and it's not terribly difficult to tell at all.

The one in the photo is a poor example, since the die can rest between intended values (the original cannot). That's what it's doing here: resting between the 95 and the other two faces just past the horizon.

Ah. I see. Interesring. I've not even come across a situation where you need a d100. What do you use them for?

Usually it's used to pull a result from a randomization table, or in generating setting attributes like a town's population size or a shopkeep's gold on hand.

There are still a few edge cases where a player might need to roll a d100, but usually players just use percentile dice. The zocchihedron is still a fun thing to have if you like dice!

Yeah. I have a fascination with dice. I love all the cool DnD dice, even though I don't play. I'd love to but none of my friends do, sadly. Did you see the kickstarter for the coin dice? Very clever
