I've been playing Catan with friends for years and we just use regular dice rolls, but they keep flying off the table. I see people with these fancy wooden towers but they all look like medieval castles or something. Are there any actual functional but normal-looking options that won't make my game night look like a D&D convention?
the tower thing doesn't have to scream fantasy - plenty of people just use a simple wooden box or cylinder with a chute at the bottom, and honestly those look way more minimalist than a lot of modern board game stuff. look for ones marketed as "dice roller" or "dice tower" in natural wood or black stain instead of carved fantasy aesthetics, and you'll find designs that are basically just clean geometric shapes. if you want to skip the tower altogether, a dice tray (like a felt-lined wooden frame or even a small box lid) does the same job of keeping dice contained without needing the elaborate architecture. bonus is you get the containment without any table flying, which is really the whole point.
