Good for small combats
If there are only a few combatants this works really well. But if you end up with a party of 5 and the more than 3 or 4 monsters the app crashes and you have to start over again. REALLY frustrating
Great App
This app is really useful for keeping track of many monsters and npcs when I don't have time to roll for every encounter. It helps make combat snappy, and tracking conditions easy
Clean and simple!
The interface for this app is super clear and I like really like that. Just load this up with your players for the session and the various monsters they could encounter and then you can run an encounter at any time by choosing a subset of either of those lists!
There are two big things I would change: one is being able to add a combatant mid fight without losing any data. And the second is changing combat so that proceeding from one turn to the other doesn’t move the character icons around, it just moves the active turn highlight to the next character (it’s a lot easier to find an NPC to manage HP if the list isn’t moving around, moving the character who’s turn just finished to the end of the list looks cool but is more confusing in practice)

Great so far!
Please make more apps like this one. Simple, easy to use, and actually works!

Thanks for your review!
Great app just needs minor update!
Like the previous poster said, this app would easily be five stars if a few things were added. Carryover health from one fight to the other, clarity over which condition is which, and my suggestion would be to be able switch up initiative in the middle of battle. This is helpful when a player decides to “delay” his turn. Currently you can switch up initiative, but it resets the fight. Also, the ability to add monsters and PCs into a currently running fight (reinforcements style).
Otherwise, this app is the best of its kind! Simple, fast, elegant. Nearly perfect! But troublesome enough to make me question using it in a real game until those features are added. Can’t wait until the are! *fingers crossed*

Hi Daren, thanks for the review. Being able to carry over statuses and health from one fight to the next is something I never envisioned but it’s a good idea that’s come up a few times in reviews so I’ll be looking into implement it for the next version
