Here are 10 websites that let you roll virtual dice online. Just go to the websites and do the dice roll. Some of these websites give good graphics as well of dice roll, while some just show final results of the roll.
Before I started working on this article, my understanding of dice roll was simply one or two dices rolled together, with each dice having numbers from 1 to 6. However, while researching for this article, I came across many websites that support many different type of dice and gave pretty complex combination to roll the dices. Then I read about it on Wikipedia, and surely, the dice I knew was just a small subset of amazing world of Dice :).
I have divided this article into two parts. The first 6 websites in the list are simple websites that let you roll standard 6-faced dice. These websites let you roll one or more dice together. Last four are more advanced ones that let you roll dices that can have more than 6 faces, and you might want to add or subtract something from dice totals to get your final result. So, here we go:

It lets you choose from among a large number of dice types, with number of faces as: 4, 6, 8, 10, 100, 12, 20. Also, you can choose different number of dices and add modifiers to the results. Final results are shown in the column on right side and you can see previous results as well. It might take some time to get used to this, but once you do, you will surely like it.

Konkret dice roller is another advanced online virtual dice roller. Unlike other websites on this list, this one does not even show any dice. Instead, you have to specify exactly how many faces your dice should have, how many dices you want to roll, what number do you want to add to sum or each die, and how many times you want to repeat the entire set. It also gives option to drop lowest die. And shows of last 10 rolls as well.
Hamete Virtual Dice Server
Hamete Virtual Dice Server things to even next level. It provides lot of different dice, like, d6, 2d6, 3d6r, 4d6-L, d10, d24, 10d10E, and many more (if you didn’t understand what these notations mean, probably you don’t need such a complicated dice roller; stick to the first six of this post). In addition to this, you can also specify your own dice to roll. You can also specify how many times you want to roll the dice. This website is primarily useful for dice roll for RPG and PBEM games.
Rolz.org
Rolz.org is another advanced online dice roller. You need to input die code and hit roll button to see the result. It also shows previous results. Some of the things it supports include: take the highest, take the lowest, drop the lowest, fudge rolls, Hero system, wild die, Take X highest rolls, Unique rolls, etc. As long as you can make a valid die code, you can use this website to roll the die.
This concludes this list of 10 online websites to do virtual dice roll. Researching for this article was quite enlightening for me as I realized world of dice is quite huge, and not just limited to two dice with 6 faces. Try these websites if you need to roll a dice but do not have one.
