Fully Functional Jumanji Game

[wozaa3]

I'm planning to build a fully functional Jumanji game. I can build the board, make the pieces move and program what the LCD screen in the center will but unsure how to make the board detect what was rolled on the dice and what space the piece has landed on. I'm looking for any ideas on how to do this and put it into practice. My first thoughts were something with RFID chips.

Thanks

Depends on the number of objects to be detected and the accuracy of detection.

Do the dice need to be 'mechanical'? If physical dice are used and positional accuracy is required then it may be that video recognition is the answer. Complicated, but the easiest to implement mechanically/electrically.
