Provides everything you need for easily generating good games. A few nice-to-have features for more seasoned players would be:
1)that the events/landscape/ways/etc have their own reuse rule “when no other option” (it seems the default is “every time” for these)
2) there would be some way to retain favorites via export. If the app is uninstalled or you get a new device, all of one’s history of favorite games is lost.
There’s an occasional bug with Plunder and Loot where it says the Loot pile is needed but no cards call for it within the generated game. I cannot consistently recreate the bug so I’m not sure what triggers it.
Thank you again, I sent a tip to support this awesome app, it is well-deserved for your hard work on keeping up on this wonderful resource for the Dominion community!
Love this app. Well updated when new sets come out in a timely manner, lots of customization options. Layout is great with reminders of the supplementary cards, mats, and tokens you need for that set. Also love the quick links to card faqs! Keep up the great work, and thank you for this great app!

Thanks so much!The “Share” feature no longer works. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling. UPDATE: I installed the latest version and still cannot share my created kingdoms, regardless of which expansions are selected. I get a blank share page if Plunder is not selected and a message “sorry, there was an error sharing your playset” message if it is included. iPhone 11Pro with latest iOS update. 17.4.1 If developer could provide email or support site I would be happy to help debug.
There are no better randomizers. This one tells us ALL the cards and extra items we need to play the randomized set for 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 players including extra setup instructions like how many favors or coffers to give everyone to start (where applicable) and which mats, tokens, and extra piles of non-supply cards to use. It allows you to use both 1st edition and 2nd edition cards where they exist, and promo cards. You choose however many sets you want and you can change out individual cards if you like. Furthermore, it has options for deciding how many landscape cards to use and how to decide whether to use platinums and colonies. Several other options exist including preferences for not repeating cards that have recently been selected in other set ups. Only one gripe: occasionally I need to close it and reopen it to get my new randomized set. (I currently use ios 17.3.1 on my iPad, but have had the problem on older versions as well.)
Now that I have the update pack for guilds/cornucopia 2nd edition, I am looking forward to seeing this app support 2024 updates. When can I expect to see that?
Developer Response
Thanks! Not sure the source of the freeze, but if you could let me know your iOS version that might help troubleshoot.Now that Cornucopia 2e is out and Rising Sun is about to come out, I hope that there will be an update very soon! This is the best randomizer. It also has all of the recommended kingdoms and links to errata, strategy, the secret story behind every card, and all of the art.

Thanks! Not sure the source of the freeze, but if you could let me know your iOS version that might help troubleshoot.If you have multiple expansions, this is such a great app. I seriously can’t say enough about it.
The only reason I rate it a four is if you use the plunder expansion, you can’t share the list. Which is a bummer since we usually generate the kingdom and let folks veto any cards. It makes it hard for everyone to see.
I’m hoping for an update soon because this is seriously the best way to handle the expansions!
Allies still has cost errors!!
Contract is listed as a cost of 2, but should be 5.
Innkeeper is listed as a cost of 2, but should be 4.
I was advised this would be fixed in the release including all ‘Plunder’, but it didn’t make it into that version.
Also, no wsy to contact author except by writing reviews. Thus I have to give only 3 stars for these deficiencies.

Thanks so much!This is by far the best dominion randomizer I have used. I love that the artwork matches the cards and all of the thoughtful ways that the developer has implemented the various elements of the game. If you play Dominion, this is the randomizer you need.
Things I would like to see in an update:
1) Update packs included. I have the originals and the update packs, if I select the 2nd edition, it doubles the cards that carry over.
2) I would like the option to be able to select the minimum quantities of the landscapes (i.e. I want 1 project, 1 way, and up to 2 other landscapes)
Looking forward to the Plunder Update!
Developer Response
Thanks so much!
1) If you select both the first edition and the second edition, you can randomize with the update packs. Each uniquely named card will only be included in the selection pool once, even if the card was printed in multiple editions.
2) Thanks for the suggestion! This could get pretty complex to implement, but I'll definitely consider it.
