The '''Double Dice''' (formerly known as the '''Double Dice Set''' and '''Double Dice Block''') is an item in the ''[[Mario Party (series)|Mario Party]]'' series. It is similar to the [[Mushroom]], [[Mushroom Orb]], and [[Twice Candy]], allowing the user to roll two [[Dice Block]]s (2-20 spaces). It debuts in ''[[Mario Party DS]]''.
The '''Double Dice''' (formerly known as the '''Double Dice Set''' and '''Double Dice Block''') is an item in the ''[[Mario Party (series)|Mario Party]]'' series first appearing in ''[[Mario Party DS]]''. As the name suggests, the player is allowed to roll two [[Dice Block]]s. The effect is similar to the [[Mushroom]], [[Mushroom Orb]], and [[Twice Candy]] from past games.


In ''Mario Party DS'', the Double Dice Set can be bought in the [[Item Shop (Mario Party series)|item shop]] for three [[coin]]s. A double dice set is almost always available in the item shop. Rolling a matching pair of numbers will give the player 10 coins. Two "7's" will result in 30. This item is also very common when the player is in first place. Nearly every computer player that goes to the item shop in a party purchases a Double Dice Set.
==History==
===''Mario Party DS''===
[[File:Item-Double.png|frame|left]]
It costs three [[coin]]s to buy the Double Dice Set at an [[Item Shop (Mario Party series)|item shop]] in ''Mario Party DS''. Rolling the same pair of numbers gives 10 coins, except 7's, which give 30 coins.


The Double Dice Block appears as a special [[Dice Block]] in ''[[Mario Party 10]]''. Here, the Double Dice Block can only roll from 1 to 6 — as with normal Dice Blocks — and the player gets no coin bonus for rolling two of the same number. The Double Dice Block can appear if the player stops on a [[Special Dice Block Space]].
===''Mario Party 10''===
The Double Dice Block can appear from landing on a [[Special Dice Block Space]] in ''[[Mario Party 10]]''. It can only roll between 1 and 6, like regular Dice Blocks.


The Double Dice Block returns in ''[[Mario Party: Star Rush]]'' and ''[[Mario Party: The Top 100]]'', albeit renamed to Double Dice; it functions the same as it did in ''Mario Party 10''. In Toad Scramble, the two Dice Blocks used are that for the current leader (i.e, If [[Toadette]] is the leader, then two [[Cutie Dice Block]]s are rolled). This item is the default item for [[amiibo]] characters if they do not have ''Mario Party 10'' data saved on them.
===''Mario Party: Star Rush'' / ''Mario Party: The Top 100''===
The Double Dice works similarly in ''[[Mario Party: Star Rush]]'' and ''[[Mario Party: The Top 100]]'' to previous games, and it is the default item for [[amiibo]] characters without ''Mario Party 10'' data.


The Double Dice also returns in ''[[Mario Party Superstars]]''. Its function is nearly identical to its appearance in ''Mario Party DS'', except rolling two 7's now only awards 10 coins instead of 30.
===''Mario Party Superstars''===
The Double Double retains its function in ''[[Mario Party Superstars]]'' from ''Mario Party DS'', except two "7's" are worth only 10 coins. The Double Dice costs 5 coins. It is not available in the forest shop of [[Woody Woods]].
 
===''Super Mario Party Jamboree''===
The Double Dice is mostly the same in ''[[Super Mario Party Jamboree]]'' as the previous game. It costs 5 coins to buy at Koopa's Shop. The game adds the [[Payday Double Dice]], which gives a number of coins matching the player's roll. On Party Rules during the [[Last Five Turns Event|Homestretch]], there is an option which gives all four players a Double Dice.
 
If Pro Rules are being played, a player can choose to get Double Dice if they land on a [[Lucky Space]].

The Double Dice (formerly known as the Double Dice Set and Double Dice Block) is an item in the Mario Party series. It is similar to the Mushroom, Mushroom Orb, and Twice Candy, allowing the user to roll two Dice Blocks (2-20 spaces). It debuts in Mario Party DS.

History[edit]

Mario Party DS[edit]

An item from Mario Party DS

It costs three coins to buy the Double Dice Set at an item shop in Mario Party DS. Rolling the same pair of numbers gives 10 coins, except 7's, which give 30 coins.

Mario Party 10[edit]

The Double Dice Block can appear from landing on a Special Dice Block Space in Mario Party 10. It can only roll between 1 and 6, like regular Dice Blocks.

Mario Party: Star Rush / Mario Party: The Top 100[edit]

The Double Dice works similarly in Mario Party: Star Rush and Mario Party: The Top 100 to previous games, and it is the default item for amiibo characters without Mario Party 10 data.

Mario Party Superstars[edit]

The Double Double retains its function in Mario Party Superstars from Mario Party DS, except two "7's" are worth only 10 coins. The Double Dice costs 5 coins. It is not available in the forest shop of Woody Woods.

Super Mario Party Jamboree[edit]

The Double Dice is mostly the same in Super Mario Party Jamboree as the previous game. It costs 5 coins to buy at Koopa's Shop. The game adds the Payday Double Dice, which gives a number of coins matching the player's roll. On Party Rules during the Homestretch, there is an option which gives all four players a Double Dice.

If Pro Rules are being played, a player can choose to get Double Dice if they land on a Lucky Space.

Probabilities[edit]

The following is a table for the probability of every roll with a Double Dice:

Possible roll 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20
Probability to roll number 1% 2% 3% 4% 5% 6% 7% 8% 9% 10% 9% 8% 7% 6% 5% 4% 3% 2% 1%
Probability to roll number or higher 100% 99% 97% 94% 90% 85% 79% 72% 64% 55% 45% 36% 28% 21% 15% 10% 6% 3% 1%

As Mario Party 10, Mario Party: The Top 100, and Mario Party: Star Rush have 1-6 Dice Blocks, their probabilities are different, as shown below:

Possible roll 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12
Probability to roll number 2.7% 5.5% 8.3% 11.1% 13.8% 16.6% 13.8% 11.1% 8.3% 5.5% 2.7%
Probability to roll number or higher 100% 97.2% 91.6% 83.3% 72.2% 58.3% 41.6% 27.7% 16.7% 8.3% 2.7%
