### 1/5 — Needs Update or fix

*2022-04-30, version 2.1.56*

This is an old app and needs to be fixed or updated. Although it seems fun, you can’t sign into google to connect with your party. The developers should take this down or correct their mistake to stop wasting peoples time in downloading it.

### 4/5 — Great app but one bug

*2022-04-26, version 2.1.56*

I love this app a lot and recently I’ve found a bug the bug doesn’t allow you to move the map around instead all it does is bug out and disappear when you try to move

Other than that pretty good.

### 5/5 — Perfect for mobile combat

*2022-04-04, version 2.1.56*

Love this app! So easy to use, great for combat maps on my phone. Thank you!

### 4/5 — It’s great but..

*2021-08-26, version 2.1.56*

It’s an amazing app I love it so far the only issue is when trying to connect it via adapter or through airplay it crashes the app if they could be fixed thatd be amazing

### 5/5 — Way awesome!!!

*2020-12-19, version 2.1.56*

This virtual tabletop is so awesome and I like the fact that you can make your own rpg game and unleash your creativity. Way to go and keep up the great work

### 3/5 — Actually still great, but needs to fix google

*2020-10-10, version 2.1.56*

Hey developers could you please fix the connections to google accounts? I would like to play with friends using this board but it doesn’t work

### 1/5 — Broken, app is dead

*2020-06-08, version 2.1.56*

Cannot play with others, requires Google+ to log in and always fails, and has done so for about 2 years (no app updates for 4 years).  Do not buy.  It’s a shame because it really was a great app when it worked, and I don’t know of anything else like it on iOS.  Closest thing now is EncounterPlus which can do a lot more, but it’s also much more complicated to use.  This had some nice little features, but it’s more like a first impression of a useful app than a complete app.

If they ever do work on it again, it needs a few things to make it more useful:
- Easier to import images and adjust them (EncounterPlus does this fantastically well - tapping on the name of a creature searches for it on google images then you just drag the image onto the creature in the app and it auto-imports it)
- A simple toggle or hold button for fog of war removal
- allow drawing in the map for spell FX, etc.
- Easier/more intuitive grid alignment (again, something EncounterPlus does better)
- allow import of “decals”: images that lay flat on the board always (for AOE spell fx templates) and can be resized or made transparent.
- Subfolders, tags or categories for organizing assets
- Fix multiplayer to work again

If it had all those things, it would be amazing and I’d pay at least $20 for it.

### 4/5 — Good; But updates would ice the cake

*2020-03-26, version 2.1.56*

Condition rings, like being able to change the color of the base, of the miniatures, to indicate stuff like paralysis, poisoning, charming, and other things like that would be phenomenal.

Flat pieces, without that circular base, that indicate changes in terrain in the middle of an encounter (dead bodies, oil, acid, flames, pits, etc.), would be amazing as well.

Hopefully you read my review and are still making updates, appreciate it!

### 4/5 — Can’t log in

*2020-01-19, version 2.1.56*

I can’t log in because it uses Google+ which is no longer a thing. Other than that, it is quite useful. Please add another way to log in.

### 4/5 — To bad no longer supported

*2020-01-06, version 2.1.56*

Great app but no update in 4 years. And I can't register to share maps. I have not tested in game yet but. I think I will simply screen shot everything
