Ordered a set last year for Christmas, my partner really enjoyed opening them. We have recommended them to friends and we are ordering another set this year.

Bought 2 last year for myself and a friend, getting 3 this year. They do no disappoint.

Got this from my mum this year. The dice are amazing and a so pretty. There’s a wide range of colours and sizes for the different sets you get. Definitely worth it. Will be ordering again next year

Fantastic. I loved opening these so much. It was well packaged and such a great design. The dice sets that were included were fantastic and I’m impressed with them. Thank you! Looking forward to next years!

Bought this in 2021, loved it. Good fun for the month.

Bought two different sets of these, the countdown to new years and the countdown to Christmas, and on each of the days most of them had the same exact dice sets in them. Very disappointed when expecting to open this with my significant other and getting mostly the same dice.

Sorry to hear that you were disappointed! Like the advent calendars you get in the stores, each purchased in a calendar year have the same sets. This way we can ensure you don’t get duplicates next year!

I bought a 31 day, standard calendar. And then broke all the rules and opened it early. Absolutely love the custom sets that were included! The colours and adorable 20 face, are just so cool. Just stunning, and hoping to buy duplicates of a few in the future.

I ordered the 24 day one last year and the 31 day this year. I really enjoy coming home after a long day and being to open a box and get a dice. The dice last year were unique and sweet, I can’t wait to see what this years brings.

I ordered the 24 days last year thinking “this would complete the dices I had”…. well, with how I loved the dices in it, I had to get even more dices and could not pass getting another 24 days calendar this year. Every morning I would go to the box and open them, then have them sit on my desk while working that day. It is impossible to pick only sets that will fit everyone but the choices and care that AD put in those were great, as I did love discovering the “2nd” dice in a set that would confirm the sets.

It’s frustrating (and unfortunate) but this year’s Advent Calendar had a mistake. Instead of getting three sets over the days leading up to Christmas, I got two sets—and one group of dice with two d10s (and a 10s d10) instead of the d8 that would have completed the set. Even more unfortunate is that it was the green/black/grey dice with the white writing, which was the by the most legible of the three sets—the dark purple sparkles with black ink is nigh unreadable, though the white/grey/purple with purple ink is somewhat better.
The two “other” dice were both d20s (which is useful!) but one is a very dark wine-red and the numbering on this dice (black) is—again—really hard to read. In the end, I can’t help but feel like out of all the dice, I got one useful set, plus one decent d20.
I know I wasn’t the only unlucky person to get a duplicate d10 instead of a d10 and a d8—the friend who pointed out this calendar to me had the same issue (though he got a better d20 than I did, instead of the dark-red one).

Sorry to hear that you were unhappy with the product! We try to include a mix of dice sets, but as this product is a “mystery box” type of product, we know we can’t please everyone.
Regarding the missing d8, please drop us an email at int_check@adventuredice.ca. We are happy to send you a replacement die. We try really hard to ensure the calendars are accurate, but when you’re hand-packing over 1000 calendars errors like this can sometimes slip through.

My wife ordered Deluxe 8 Pack as a late birthday gift and I was not disappointed! I really enjoyed the variety of the packs I got and cannot wait to use them. The toughest part is figuring out which character I am going to use these dice for!

This was my first year getting a dice calendar and I loved the excitement of opening every day up to discover what goodies I would be getting. Quality was great and the mix of dice was a delight. Not every set will be joining my permanent collection, but I appreciate the effort that went into cultivating a variety to make sure different styles would be included! The dice I am not adding to my collection will be going to friends who I know will appreciate them as much as I will appreciate the ones I’m keeping.
I will be doing the dice calendar again and I’m looking forward to it already!

I’ve had these two years in a row (2021, 2022) and I love getting them! I’m a dice goblin, so getting a shiny math rock each day appeases that part of me! I mean, yeah, there are sets that I didn’t like but there’s enough variation – even in the standard ones – that there will be something for everyone! I am SO excited to get another one and get a dice every day!
Also, getting to just shake the unopened box brings me so much joy!

I have purchased this two years in a row, and frankly last years was superior.
(Note: this is not about the quality of the dice. They are quite supurb as always, especially this years christmas set. Which I have already seen, because the new boxes were shit.)
Last years had an air or simplicity and elegance to it. This years looks like the $5 ones I used to buy at walmart when I was a kid. Now that alone would have only knocked my review down to a 4 since this is about the dice after all, however more care should have been taken with theses as what should have been the full set on the 24th, was in the 18th. (Looking closely it appears the tray was inserted the wrong way.) The suspence is now gone, as I already opened the two spares, and know what the other two sets are. This is what knocked my review down to a 2. Given how much these cost more care should be given, and I feel like if you had stuck with last years box design this type of mistake would not have happened.

Sorry to hear that you were disappointed with this year’s calendar! We try our best to put care into our packaging, but sadly we must have failed a skill check on yours and made a mistake. Apologies! We are only human and it can happen when you’re assembling so many at once.
We really loved our old packaging, too, but unfortunately the amount of labour that we had to put into building all the little boxes meant we really weren’t making any money (and we gotta eat). We’d hoped the thoughtfulness we’d put into the new design would overcome the change in style (artwork by local artist Haley Boros, box and insert designed by Blair himself, all recyclable packaging… even the insert is paper), but alas we can’t win it every time.

I got this as a gift from a friend and I absolutely loved it!!! There was such a wide variety of set I loved that there was something for all types of dice lovers!! Will definitely be getting the 2024 calendar next year!!!

bought the regular 31 day (a dice a day) of 2022, loved it so much i bought the 31 day deluxe calendar (a set of dice a day) this year for 2023.
I cant rave enough about this. while i didnt jive with every set of dice, i have extras now to give away to friends, and players at my table.
the 5 custom sets of 2023 are the best, and definately going into my dice bag, and my DM dice bag. i dont htink i can give these ones up.
the packaging this year was ON POINT!
while i miss the 2022 packagem the one this year, with punching out the slots where the dice were, and the hexagon design of the inside was beautiful. i kept the hexagon and building a frame to display my favorite sets of dice in.
Adventure dice, i love this so much. look forward to the 2024 dice calender. and if your looking at this debating if you want this calender, get it. just do it, Its Worth It!

My partner has gotten me the 31 day standard calendar 2 years in a row. It has not disappointed. The joy of opening up and seeing what die I’m getting is a great part of December. Ending the year with 5 new sets of dice is great.

We decided to get the 31 day calendar as a family of 4 to each get a set and have one extra. We each fell in love with a different set and enjoyed opening it each day.
I love the packaging, there was no single use plastic and it was well thought out. We even used the cardboard insert as a toy for our bunnies to search for treats. A great way to reuse it 🙂

2023 was my first year getting this calendar, and I had so much fun with it! I like the artwork on the box, and it’s satisfying to punch out a slot each day. No spoilers, but there’s a lot of variety in the dice and I’m thrilled with all five sets, plus the extra d20s. I’ll be back next year for another one!

Just pre-ordered for the third year in the row. We have so much fun with this every year. Roll the new die first thing in the morning to see how the day will go. Highly recommend.
