+# Dice v1.1
+## Description
+This Minetest mod adds a red and a white dice to the game, each in form of
+a full placable block. The dice can also be rolled with a nice dice rolling sound.
+
+## Crafting
+### Basic crafting
+To craft a dice, you have to place *any* kind of wood like this:
+
+    w.w
+    .w.
+    w.w
+
+* `w` = any kind of wood (group "wood")
+* `.` = nothing
+
+The result is 5 white dice.
+
+### Coloring
+If you use Minetest Game or a similar subgame which has a mod called “dye”,
+the following additional shapeless recipes are available:
+
+* 1 white dice: 1 red dice, 1 white dye and 1 black dye
+* 1 red dice: 1 white dice, 1 red dye and 1 white dye
+
+## How to use
+If you place a dice, it will face a random direction and turned randomly.
+
+You can mine dice in half a second without any tool, but it can be faster
+with “choppy” tools (e.g. axes).
+
+To roll the dice, press the use key (right click) while pointing to it. So you
+don’t have to mine and place it again.
+If you don’t want to throw the dice but want to build something to it, you have
+to rightclick it while you hold the sneak key (usually Shift). 
+
+Careful: The dice are flammable!
