Pig Die Applet

The following applet simulates rolling a pig shaped die either a few times (up to ten rolls), or rolling the die an arbitrary number of times (up to millions of rolls!). Pig dice are shaped like pigs, and the outcomes are:

Side (No Dot) Side (Dot)
Razorbak Trotter
Snouter Leaning-Jowler

Note: The left side of the pig and the right side are difficult to distinguish from one another, and so one side has a dot. Thus the two sides of the pig are: "Side (No Dot)" and "Side (Dot)."


Roll One Pig — One Time


Instructions: Press the "Toss Piggy!" button to roll a single pig die. After all twenty-five of the entries in the table are filled, the next roll will empty the table and start over.

Note: Some results are extremely rare — the simulator is not broken!
