Mach Dice to Get Massive Update

Monday September 22, 2008 10:32 am PDT by Arnold Kim

Sometimes it's the simple apps that we enjoy the most. We previously highlighted Mach Dice [App Store], a multi-sided Dice simulator app that sells for $0.99.

Since the 1.0 release, developer Mach Kobayashi has been hard at work on a large number of updates to the popular dice-rolling application as detailed in his blog. He has not yet submitted the new update to the App Store, but coming features include

- Dice Locking
- History
- Background
- Dice Colors
- Backspace key
- New 4-sided dice
- Coins for 2-sided "dice"

Our original story contains a video of the developer demoing his app.

He seems to be missing both one and three sided dice. Pretty obvious oversight, if you ask me.

Well all that's nice, but the one thing the app really needs is better physics.

This is cool and all, but I have to admit I'm baffled by this blog's wall-to-wall coverage of dice rolling apps. Is this really the most interesting thing going on with the iPhone these days?

It definitely is if you're a gamer. :D
Most dice apps for the iPhone have sucked... badly.

No, skateboarding dog videos are the most interesting thing happening on the iPhone.

Besides, Mach Dice update will never get approved by Apple. It duplicates functionality of the previous version.

Despite the simple concept, this is one of my favorite iPhone apps. It never fails to bring a smile or look of wonder to the faces of my friends, and with coin tossing added it'll be even more convenient for decision-making, for those little two-way choices we are always making: whether to go to a university or a junior college, whether to buy or sell your stock, whether to change jobs or stay where you are, which candidate to vote into office, which of two women to marry, whether or not to have children, etc. Without Mach Dice, it would be much harder to make these decisions.
