Abstract
A gaming system comprises a gaming controller for conducting a first and second dice game, a display device to present the dice games, a plurality of dice, and one or more automated dice units (ADUs) to house and shake the dice to generate a dice outcome. The gaming controllers are configured to detect, via at least one sensor in response to generating the dice outcome, outcome indicia for each die, identify a first set of dice and a second set of dice at least partially different from the first set, translate the detected outcome indicia of the first set into outcome values for a first game outcome of the first dice game and the detected outcome indicia of the second set into outcome values for a second game outcome of the second dice game, and cause the display device to present the game outcomes.
