Community Insight:
We love the simplicity of the app. It is very useful and helps avoid spoilers! Are you planning to develop something for Frosthaven.
Makes set up faster and spoiler free.
Please do not set Chinese to in-app purchase, because Chinese players cannot in-app purchase, in-app purchase requires a US credit card.
Im the forever GM of our group, so when we discovered Gloomhaven we were excited to get to play in a game we didnt have to create and manage. But of course someone had to set up the room tiles with the correct pieces, and the scenario book doesnt provide a spoiler-free way of handling that, so we were stuck with the job of looking ahead in the scenario book and setting up the board for everyone. So everyone got to be surprised when we opened a door but us. Thats why when we found this app we were REALLY excited. We finally have the option to play along with everyone else without spoiling every room up front. For that we are thankful. However, we have one suggestion that to us seems like a massive oversight on the developers part. Each room of every scenario can be toggled to hide or show that rooms contents but the tokens section is lumped together into one toggle! And the token section is the only section that shows the name of the enemies! We can hide the specific layout of the rooms (enemy placement, traps, obstacles, loot, etc) to keep from spoiling, but in order to know which monster stat cards and overlay tiles to get when we open a door, we have to toggle on the tokens section and spoil every monster in the entire scenario. In our opinion, it should be changed in the following way: instead of making the token list one toggle field, make each token its own section and tie each monster or overlay in that section to the room it appears in, so that it reveals the appropriate tokens as the rooms are revealed. Or at the very least (if thats not possible) make each token its own toggleable field and color code the rooms and tokens somehow so that only the pertinent tokens can be revealed. This app is designed to eliminate spoilers for the person setting up the scenario, and a change like that would improve the apps functionality immensely in that regard. Thank you.
The only thing we really want is the ability to only see tokens (monsters, treasure, etc.) included in the visible room(s). Knowing all of the monster types in the entire scenario is definitely a spoiler.
We like the app a lot but our only complaint is when you zoom in on the board pieces you cannot read what piece they are. Is there anyway you can provide better pictures for the board pieces? Im still having to open up the scenario book to see what the numbers are on the board pieces.
This is a great app and is very helpful! We just wish it was formatted to support the iPhone X display.
Love the app, but for some reason it stops playback on other background music apps. Would appreciate if that were fixed.
Typically we dont choose to bring electronic screens to the table for playing board games. We like to keep it analog and old school and tactile. But there are some apps that enhance the game, and this is one. If you use the printed scenario book but get lots of spoilers in your eyes. If you use this app you are spared all those spoilers! There is a small in app purchase you can choose to acquire. Its nice because it makes it even easier to use. But the free version does all the important stuff on its own. So consider the in app purchase a small donation if you want to choose to buy it. But otherwise just use this great app for free.
Screen is blocked by notch in iPhone X, XS, XS Max, and XR. Seems like any easy fix? But instead adds IAP and update to portrait? We are all for supporting through an IAP. But quality first.
Easy to use and always works. Now we leave the scenario book away and just use the phone. Plus you can play with fog of war a little to up the anticipation.
This is an amazing tool to help keep the scenarios obscured until you need the info. Our only complaints are: selecting a scenario is very difficult from the list and requires multiple taps and the image resolution is pretty lack luster. Still the app is a must have for any gloomhaven group.
We retract our previous statement! This app is great and has no flaws! Definitely get it and use it if you play Gloom.
This app really helps streamline need the game. Thanks so much.
This is a very cool app, and helps to hide the info you don't need until you need it. Keeps the mystery going longer. But can we comment on something more impressive? This is ads done right. We have no issue watching ads to support a developer, but we hate the battery drain. This lets us watch ads when we can afford the battery impact and distraction, but then keeps the focus on the app when we are using it. We will gladly support any developer who adopts this model and considers their user's experience.
This is a fantastic tool and a much handier way of accessing this stuff than through the interactive PDFs. We were wondering if the treasure list could be added. There is an interactive PDF that allows you to only reveal specific treasures, so you dont accidentally see a treasure you dont have yet. Thats about the only thing we think could be added.
We think the app is great for keeping the suspense of the scenario. However, we would like it a little better if the monsters and tokens were uncovered when their respective rooms were revealed. That way we dont see whats coming in a future room until we click on the room to reveal it. Really really great app though.
This app works perfectly and makes the game much more fun, since you can keep yourself in suspense. A big thank you to the author for taking the time to make this.
This app is just what we were looking for! Excited to have no idea what's in the next room. Is this app for the 1st or 2nd printing of Gloomhaven? (There are quite a few little differences between the two so this is important to know.).
One quibble is our party's prosperity is not updating.
This thing is awesome for the solo player who wants to be surprised and it see the spoilers that could ruin some of the excitement of the adventure.
Just what we needed for our journey to Gloomhaven. Works just as advertised.
Thank you for offering this to us for free. It's works well and will be used by many! Folks, if you want to go in fresh using this over the PDF and over the packed-in scenario book.
We love Gloomhaven, but we hate spoilers. This is just what we needed. We used to use a modified PDF of scenarios, but now we use this app.
