You have to go into the options menu to get rid of it. That’s stupid. Why is there not just an X in the upper right corner to get rid of it? Also, where’s the 3.5 option? They got versions 3 and 4, but not 3.5? ### 2/5 — Update needed *2022-05-08, version 1.8.0* App no longer holds onto characters added and will not change dice sets. ### 5/5 — Best Rolling Dice App Ever *2022-01-17, version 1.8.0* These app is awesome and it’s really hard to believe it was developed by 1 person. The aesthetic is great. I also love the sound effects. So fun during a game. ### 5/5 — I love the app *2021-04-28, version 1.8.0* I honestly love this app. Funny story: just now I was rolling as many dice as there were numbers on each die (4d4, 6d6, etc.) and I wasn’t clearing them on each roll, and when I got to the percentage die, the app crashed at about 75-76. Lol ### 5/5 — The app is nice *2020-12-14* A bit more complicated than I needed but the developer is nice. My main feedback would be that the tutorial should be easier to dismiss if you’re a learn by doing type. **Developer response:** Sorry its not working out for you! Dice and dragons is really meant for people that want to build their characters attacks and stats into the app to make play faster. If you don't want to use those features, you don't need to. And you are able to disable the tutorial in the options menu. Feel free to hit the feedback button to send me an email if I can help more. ### 5/5 — Perfect *2020-10-21, version 1.8.0* Exactly what you need to get a game of D&D going! ### 2/5 — Hard to use but looks good *2020-06-14, version 1.8.0* It looks nice but basic functions are impossible. For example adding more dice (more types of throws) seems impossible. It is very easy to add sparkle to your dice, just impossible to add another preset throw. If more work was put into basic functionality it would be an awesome app. ### 4/5 — Aesthetically Pleasing and FunctionaL *2020-04-08, version 1.8.0* Dice&Dragons is visually rich and satisfying both in the layOut and in the motion of the dice. Once I figured out how to access my new dice it’s been great! The sound options for the dice roLLs are fun as weLL. Love to see (hear) more of them. Thanks! ### 1/5 — Tutorials in the way *2020-03-31, version 1.8.0* Get rid of the tutorials or give a way to close them. ### 5/5 — Love it *2020-03-12* I love using the app but so far haven’t used it yet. In my opinion I think it’s good. I got confused at first but I now know how to use the mechanics. But I just want to know if you can make more solid color dice sets since we only have to choice of using only red, white, and green. Or even better make free animated ones! ## Frequently asked questions about Dice & Dragons ### What does Dice & Dragons do?
