## Most critical reviews (7 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Just an ad farm

*2018-08-27, version 1.01*

Popped no less than 5 ads in the first 30 seconds of use. Couldn't uninstall fast enough.

### 1/5 — Ad after ad.

*2018-06-23, version 1.01*

June 22,2018- It popped up the app store over and over again since I tried it, everytime I closed it and went back and it IMMEDIATELY sent me back to something else's app page. I don’t mind supporting an app with ads but that was ridiculous! Better off using anything else. Don’t waste your time or phone space on something there are better versions of.

### 1/5 — Garbage!

*2018-05-26, version 1.01*

Goes to App Store over and over again. You can’t even get an encounter generated before it does it. Unusable, undesirable, don’t waste your time even trying it! This garbage app deserves a zero star rating but one is as low as it goes.

### 1/5 — Scam

*2017-05-13, version 1.01*

The free version of this app will repeatedly open the App Store and becomes unusable.

### 1/5 — Great idea, bad execution

*2015-01-22, version 1.0*

This is a suggestion app, calculating encounters based on party size and desired difficulty. I was excited. However, this app doesn't have any monster stats, it refers to the monster manual page. If it had stats, this would be a five star app, the calculator feature is brilliant, and it could save loads of time. I would even pay for the ad free because the ads are annoying enough and the app would be used a enough to justify the price. As is, there are better apps that are ad free, free versions that are more useful

### 2/5 — Keeps going to App Store

*2015-08-27, version 1.01*

Biggest issue is that the app randomly tosses you into the App Store even if you are not touching the screen. That needs fixing. Lesser issue is that the encounters generated seem limited. I generated an encounter for a party of 2 about 10 times, each was a single monster at the higher CR range.

### 4/5 — Ma review

*2015-07-14, version 1.0*

Hey, this is that guy. This app is pretty good. It makes good encounters and should help newcomers to DnD. However you need to have bought the books. Sorry, but you need the books to play. This app is for those who struggle thinking of good encounters. It is random, so you have to make the effort in adventure creation. The adds are often and unforgiving, so buy it if you like it. I gave it four stars because it is a great app, but the adds killed my pet fly. It wasn't age, he was only 2 months old. I have one last thing to say abo
