Storyteller Dice Roller app for iPhone and iPad
Developer: Zachary Drake

Storyteller Dice Roller (SDR) is an elegant, streamlined app designed specifically to enhance the experience of Storyteller system tabletop role-playing games such as "Vampire: The Requiem" and "Exalted." With a single touch, SDR will roll up to 99 virtual ten-sided dice, count successes (i.e. how many are higher than a target number), compare the number of successes to a difficulty number, and tell you by how much you succeeded or failed ("Threshold"). Tens can be counted twice, once, or once-and-roll-again ("10 again") and switching between the three modes is a snap. If no successes are rolled, and one or more 1s are rolled, a "botch" is reported. 1s can either subtract from successes or not, depending on your preference. Storyteller Dice Roller is everything you need to stop fumbling with your dice and start enjoying the game.
Compared to other "dice pool" rollers available in the App store, SDR has the following advantages:
•Allows for tens to be counted once, twice, or once-plus-another-die-roll.
•Allows for 1s to subtract from successes, or not.
•All controls are on a single screen for fast access during gameplay.
•Elegant interface with a unified look.
•Results displayed in large font that can be read by others at the table.
•Difficulty setting, and report of how much your roll exceeded or fell short.
•Shows raw dice rolls (for the first 20 or so dice) at the top of the screen.
•Dice rolling sound effect tailored to number of dice rolled.
•Audio feedback when sliders are adjusted.
•Mute button to turn sound on/off.
I welcome feedback and comments and would be happy to add new features if there is sufficient demand.
Happy gaming!
