My set came with 11 dice. The breakdown is 4 strike dice, 3 spare dice and 4 pin dice. I'm guessing the extra die is one of the strike dice, because it makes sense to me that their would be the same number of spare and strike dice (3 of each, rounded out with 4 pin dice).

Amazing just bought Ideal Bowling Dice in Missouri and the instructions were in what appears to be French. So it's made by a company from Canton MI, made in China with French instructions. That is a sign of a poorly ran company if you ask me.. I wonder if the French have the English instructions?

It's a cute, fun little game actually, but it's completely random, no skill involved. Plus a great way to practice scoring bowling games, if anyone does that by hand any more.
