How Many Faces (Sides) Can Dice Have?
Typically, when you hear the word dice, your mind immediately conjures up an image of a 6-sided cube. The world of dice, however, is much more expansive than your run-of-the-mill cubes numbered from 1 to 6. Believe it or not, there are 120-sided dice and 144-sided dice as well.
Dice with fewer sides than 6 also exist. Even coins (2 sides) are a type of die. Apart from coins, there are also 3-sided dice that look like prisms. Four-sided dice have been used in India since ancient times in games like Pachisi and Chaupar. Dice with 8 sides usually come in the shape of octahedrons, which are basically two square pyramids attached together.
Similarly, you can find many other dice of increasing complexity, such as dice with 8, 12, 20, 24, 28, 30, 60, 100, 120 and even 144 sides!
