Dale Yu: Mystery Dice Bags from Mystery Dice Goblins
So, every now and then we get offered some accessories to check out. And while we’re mostly boardgamers around here, nearly all of us have dabbled in RPGs/D+D in the past. So, when I was contacted by the nice folks at Mystery Dice Goblins to look at their dice – we were happy to accept a set or three and give ’em a roll.
Admittedly, polyhedral dice are mostly used here for score keeping or other proxy uses in our boardgames; but it’s still nice to have multiple sets at the ready so that we can meet any need that arises.
In their promo text “In the realm of imagination and adventure, where dragons soar and heroes rise, Mystery Dice Goblin is here to support you with all your adventuring equipment.” For 9 pieces of green paper, you can have a sealed envelope arrive at your door – guaranteed to have a full set of dice within.
Full set Mystery DnD Dice Bag
Contains a full set of 7 RPG Dice; D4, D6, D8, D10, D12, D20, Percentile Dice
So, the contents are as promised! A solid set of dice was included in each. The website proclaims that there are over 100 different possible basic sets. They also offer cooled filled dice (with visible things in the middle) as well as a dice bag subscription so you can get a steady supply of new dice to roll around.
The first set I got was an aqua-purple translucent set with a bit of glitter/sparkle to them. The color scheme is nice, and there is a varied pattern of color shifting in the dice. I didn’t notice any bubbles within the dice (as that can sometimes affect how they roll)
The second set is a solid green/black swirl. Again, the variations in color are evident in the dice. The numbers here are a gold-ish color which are easy to read.
The final set is a blood splatter set with a white background with crimson red spray all over the dice. The numbers are done in dark black which is very visible against the white. Of the three sets, this is my favorite.
Not sure what else you’d want to know about the dice. They seem to roll true based on a few drops down my handy dice tower, and looking around on their website, they also have other accessories such as bags and dice holders.

Until your next appointment
