    Strange. All modern dice have opposite sides adding up to seven, but that has six opposite four and five opposite three, presumably one opposite two on the side we can’t see. I couldn’t imagine making one that wasn’t ‘fair’ and then trying to play a game with it, would be too suspicious of the results.

      How unfair does having the sides not be numerically balanced make them? A fair die will land on all sides equally regardless of the value given to that side. It may make it possible to do bad rolls that would be more likely to give a high/low value, but specific values should still be equally likely.
