This digital D&D watch allows you to roll a fireball out of your wrist

Cube hoarding is a standard pastime amongst Dungeons and Dragons gamers, however I’m betting most received’t have a digital watch of their assortment. Alongside displaying the time, day, and date, the Timestop D-20 consists of all of the dice-rolling options it is advisable to play tabletop roleplaying video games straight out of your wrist on the push of a button.

The watch permits the wearer to digitally roll a 4-, 6-, 8-, 10-, 12-, 20-, or 100-sided cube, alongside “Superior Fight” options comparable to rolling as much as 12 cube directly, and D20s with benefit or drawback (a flowery manner of rolling two cube and taking both the upper or decrease outcomes). It’ll additionally show particular icons when a D20 rolls a 1 or a 20 — referred to as a “crucial failure” or “crucial success” respectively in D&D.

“We wished a enjoyable animation whereas rolling, but additionally an general subdued look so you would ‘take the sport with you’ and even put on the watch on the workplace,” Timestop says in its weblog describing the design course of. “We included day and date problems with a perpetual calendar so it was nonetheless a sensible timepiece.”

Pricing begins at $99 and is accessible in three colours: black, orange, and chrome steel. Transport begins subsequent 12 months, with inventory obtainable for supply in both January or February. 

One characteristic you received’t discover on the Timestop D-20 is an alarm, as a result of alarms “aren’t enjoyable,” based on its creator. In any other case, it’s water resistant, encompasses a backlit LCD show, and makes use of a replaceable coin cell battery that may last as long as three years with “typical use.” I’m undecided what number of fireball spells could be thought-about typical, but it surely actually gives a extra distinctive strategy to play than conventional cube or digital dice-rolling apps.
