Go First Dice are a set of four dodecahedral dice in which, when rolled together, each die has an equal chance of showing the highest number, the second highest number, and so on.[1] The dice are intended for fairly deciding the order of play in, for example, a four-player board game.[2] Any subset of dice taken from the set and rolled together also have the same properties. The numbers on the set of dice go from 1 to 48, with each number appearing exactly once, so that no ties are possible.

Numbers on each of the dice
Die 1 1 8 11 14 19 22 27 30 35 38 41 48
Die 2 2 7 10 15 18 23 26 31 34 39 42 47
Die 3 3 6 12 13 17 24 25 32 36 37 43 46
Die 4 4 5 9 16 20 21 28 29 33 40 44 45
