The "Zocchihedron" is a single die with 100 sides, but most games that use a d100 simulate it with two d10s instead (reading the ones on one d10 and the tens on the other). So the truth is that Zocchi's die is more a novelty and less influential than it might appear at first if you take the title as written.

Yeah, a real d100 is just too impractical for actual gameplay. Super neat, but two d10s is far more usable.

    We had one for our AD&D sessions and we'd definitely be using it. AFAIR it didn't necessarily roll for very long but it was a bit hard to make sure what numbers was really the one at the top. Still: it had a cool factor.
