Fantastic For Creators

I have used this to test my own customs games. I have also scanned in games in to run automa decks for games like scythe and flame rouge. I even scanned in games like Friday to play exclusively on my iPad.

App is broken as of newest iPad OS

In years gone by, I would have rated this app about 3.75 stars. It was not always user friendly, but it was powerful and pretty stable. I have imported a lot of games into the app, and I used to use it regularly.

Under the latest Pad OS, I have found that some of the buttons in various parts of the app, the "Destroy" a card feature, for example, cause the program to crash outright. If I attempt to save a game, that also causes the program to crash.

If you play a game where you never need to destroy a card or save a setup, maybe this app will still work for you.

As it is, I keep finding various buttons and menu items that tank the app.

I am assuming that iPad OS has updated something that this software relies upon for many of its functions. If the developer does not update this software, I could not recommend it.

It may be possible that the next iPad OS will just iron this all out with no changes to the code. So, this is more of a "don't buy this now until it is functional again" sort of review.

If this gets resolved, then you should definitely feel good about purchasing this software.

Terrible UX

Can’t import multiple photos simultaneously, had to try importing 120 photos individually through a tedious multi-step process. Then making a deck was the same terrible experience, where the card images were too small to see and the scrolling UI gave no indication where you were in your card box. After that, the game table was too small to read the card faces. How is this supposed to be used? I’m on an iPad Pro 12.9, so it isn’t screen size.

Excelente

La idea es muy buena, pero es una lastima que en los ultimos años no se hayan incorporado mejoras. Ojala la compre mas gente y el desarrollador haga mejoras.

Fantastic

Superbly useful app for anyone wanting to design or play solo games, especially card but also others with some imagination.

Just one thing.... I find the card limit per screen of 100 cards a little restrictive... please increase this if you can.
