CharacterNameCode pointHTML
U+2680. One pip. The first of six die faces in the Miscellaneous Symbols block, all added in Unicode 3.2 (2002). No Alt code and no HTML name; the unicode-math package names it \dicei.
U+2681. Two pips, set corner to corner. \diceii with unicode-math.
U+2682. Three pips in a slanting line. \diceiii with unicode-math.
U+2683. Four pips, one in each corner. \diceiv with unicode-math.
U+2684. Five pips: the four corners and the middle. \dicev with unicode-math.
U+2685. Six pips in two rows of three, the highest face. \dicevi with unicode-math.
U+1F3B2. The emoji: a whole die and not a flat face. It is the only emoji with die or dice in its name. Added in Unicode 6.0 (2010).
Made of U+2680, U+2681 and U+2682: the low half of the set, in order. The next row carries on to six.
Made of U+2683, U+2684 and U+2685: the high half. Pasted after the first three it completes the six in a line.

How it works

The dice symbols are ⚀ ⚁ ⚂ ⚃ ⚄ ⚅: six characters named Die face-1 to Die face-6, at U+2680 to U+2685. The die emoji is 🎲, Game die. All of them are here to copy.

Dice in Unicode

The six faces are plain text characters of the Miscellaneous Symbols block, added in Unicode 3.2, in 2002. 🎲 is an emoji, U+1F3B2. In a web page the faces are ⚀ to ⚅. As a math symbol the unicode-math package names them \dicei to \dicevi.

No key and no Alt code

No keyboard has a dice symbol, and neither Alt code table holds one. ASCII dice are the keyboard stand-in: a face built from square brackets, periods and colons, such as [:.:] for five.

  • Opposite faces of a die add up to seven, so ⚀ sits opposite ⚅.
  • In dice notation d6 is one six-sided die and 2d6 is two.

Questions and answers

What is the dice Unicode?

U+2680 to U+2685 for the six faces, ⚀ to ⚅, and U+1F3B2 for the emoji 🎲. Among the special characters of Unicode these seven are the dice: six faces and one emoji.

Is there an alt code for dice?

No. An alt code for dice faces does not exist: neither Alt code table holds them. The faces are copied, or entered by code point, starting at U+2680 for the one.

What is the die emoji?

🎲, Game die, added in Unicode 6.0, in 2010. It is the one emoji die, so there is no separate rolling dice emoticon or throw dice emoticon: the same 🎲 serves for each.

What are ASCII dice?

Dice drawn with characters every keyboard has. The six here are [.] [:] [:.] [::] [:.:] and [:::], this site's own way to show the faces one to six in plain ASCII.

Pairs of faces 4

  • One and six, opposite faces Made of U+2680 and U+2685. One and six lie on opposite sides of a die: opposite faces add up to seven.
  • Two and five, opposite faces Made of U+2681 and U+2684, the second pair of opposites.
  • Three and four, opposite faces Made of U+2682 and U+2683, the third pair that makes seven.
  • Double six Made of U+2685 twice: the top roll of two dice.

ASCII dice 6

  • ASCII die, one One, drawn with keys every keyboard has: two square brackets around a period.
  • ASCII die, two Two: one colon.
  • ASCII die, three Three: colon, then dot.
  • ASCII die, four Four: a pair of colons.
  • ASCII die, five Five: a period between two colons, like the middle pip.
  • ASCII die, six Six: three colons.

Dice notation 2

  • d6, one six-sided die Dice notation for one six-sided die: d, then the number of sides.
  • 2d6, two six-sided dice The number in front counts the dice: two six-sided dice, rolled together.

Not a die face 2

  • Five dot punctuation U+2059. Five dots in the pattern of a die's five, yet a punctuation mark: Unicode's other names for it are Greek pentonkion and quincunx, and it points from here to the die face.
  • Braille pattern dots-123456 U+283F. Six raised dots in two columns: a braille cell with every dot filled, not a die face.

How this list was compiled: Names, and the code points they belong to, are checked against UnicodeData.txt, version 18.0.0 (https://www.unicode.org/Public/18.0.0/ucd/UnicodeData.txt), and printed in sentence case. Notes that begin Unicode's note quote NamesList.txt of the same version (https://www.unicode.org/Public/18.0.0/ucd/NamesList.txt); the version a character was added in is from DerivedAge.txt (https://www.unicode.org/Public/18.0.0/ucd/DerivedAge.txt), block names are from Blocks.txt, and the years are from https://www.unicode.org/history/publicationdates.html. Alt codes are from the code page 437 table (https://www.unicode.org/Public/MAPPINGS/VENDORS/MICSFT/PC/CP437.TXT), the PC graphics table for codes 1 to 31 (https://www.unicode.org/Public/MAPPINGS/VENDORS/MISC/IBMGRAPH.TXT) and the code page 1252 table (https://www.unicode.org/Public/MAPPINGS/VENDORS/MICSFT/WINDOWS/CP1252.TXT). Option keys are those of the U.S. keyboard layout as CLDR records it (https://github.com/unicode-org/cldr/blob/release-42/keyboards/osx/en-t-k0-osx.xml); other layouts differ.

Compose sequences are from the X.org en_US.UTF-8 Compose file (https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/lib/libx11/-/blob/master/nls/en_US.UTF-8/Compose.pre). The dice characters are those whose Unicode name holds the word DIE, found by a search of UnicodeData.txt: six die faces and the game die (a syllable of the Yi script with the same spelling is left out).
