Here is a brief video app tour of
Make Dice Lite. This app allows you to create up to six custom six-sided dice. One or multiple dice can be thrown at a time.

The one drawback to this Free app is the pop-up adds that occur between rolling events.

I've also included a few links to Cube and Thinking Dot activities and examples to help get you started.
