### 3/5 — Works well, with only a single problem

*2023-12-05, version 3.3.5*

This app works very well, however there is a problem.

If you close the app and come back a couple of hours later, you will find things have been deleted from the database. This is solved by always loading your cloud backup when starting the app, and saving to the cloud when you are done.

### 4/5 — Works well but has some problems

*2017-11-07, version 3.3.5*

I love this app. It works well and I love it. There are only a few downsides, it comes with no compendium so you have to type out all the powers and items. When you add a proficiency to a weapon, it gives it to every character you attach it to. If you go to take away the proficiency it takes it away from the item in the compendium. Other than that, it’s a very useful app, and for $3 it’s totally worth it.

### 4/5 — Great app

*2016-11-27, version 3.3.5*

I use this app all the time, mainly because I don't like using classic pen and paper.

### 4/5 — Steven

*2016-09-04, version 3.3.5*

This app is quite good.There are just a few issues to fixed.
1. I have had to data collect the 9th level Monk ability Stone Juggernaut as two 9th level powers as the app cannot handle a daily and an at will in one power.
2. Some powers cannot be recorded correctly as they have an effect before the attack component of the power.
3. Damage bonuses are not being calculated correctly.  I have had to add bonus damage to power's damage entry to fix the error.
4. Some powers have an incorrect To-Hit Attack score.

### 3/5 — Needs Dm tools, crashes on older models.

*2016-07-20, version 3.3.5*

This app series has changed game night for the better. I like that I can customize everything to match by the book play, or house rules. I would love it if we could get the Game master app to support 4th edition, like 3.5 and 5th edition. it would be enough to get the 5th star.
The 4th edition app does not work correctly unless you have a newer device. We have a 2nd gen iPad, and a 2nd gen iPad Air. The iPad Air works great, but the iPad will not load from the cloud. The app crashes instead.

### 3/5 — Why?

*2016-06-07, version 3.3.5*

I have more than one character and I wanted to put the second one in, but you have to pay? Why not just make the iap no ads? Why do we have to pay for 2 characters?

### 4/5 — Great stuff. Works a treat

*2016-06-03, version 3.3.5*

...unless you're a monk. Trying to add 'full discipline' powers has a habit of forcing the app to close. Seriously great in every other aspect though. 👍

### 4/5 — No info

*2015-11-29, version 3.3.5*

I bought the full product but unlike the pathfinder one they made there is no info at all.
I have to type up everything even the gold at some points,
Idk if this is just me or if it's a glitch in the app but it's annoying spending hours typing in equipment.

Other then that it's great and really useful to keep track of everything.

### 4/5 — Yeah

*2015-11-06, version 3.3.5*

Yeah good stuff. 
Quality content.

### 5/5 — The best!

*2015-10-17*

This app is best for dnd players

### 5/5 — The best DND helper ever!

*2015-09-11, version 3.3.3*

I love this app it works so well and helps a lot with managing my hero! I highly recommend this. The only thing I have against this app is I want to see all the math like they show on the character sheet just for setting up you character but keep the simple look for when your playing the game. And it would be nice to have some already made weapons armer and classes so we don't have to add that stuff in ourselves.

### 5/5 — Excellent app, if you have the patience

*2015-08-16, version 3.3.3*

I absolutely adore this app and use it at every game to run characters for player's that can't come and my own as well. The only downside is that you have to write everything yourself and that takes some time. However, if you have the patience to write it all out, it's an unbeatable D&D companion.

### 5/5 — It's Dangerous to go alone take this

*2015-08-07, version 3.3.3*

Yarr this be helpful yarr

### 5/5 — Back in action!

*2015-06-28, version 3.3.2*

I'm loving the app!!!! Lions den was great fixing the problems I was having with the app. Though kinda annoying that I have to type everything in. I can understand due to copyright laws. Thanks lions den! I do hope that they can fix the problem that causes the app to randomly close from time to time.

### 5/5 — Really surprised, good feels.

*2015-06-09, version 3.3.1*

As you can tell immediately I'm sure, my title pretty much gives me away right away.. it should be of no surprise that I felt I was almost compelled to write this review, and as the stars aligned within the all mighty cosmic shift.. pandora opened up a pretty serious box on me and shuffled up Bohemian Rhapsody. 

The Simple question is, well.. what would I see when I opened this box? If you're reading this then you'll just have to check the app out before dismissing it, because I was sold as soon as a miracle occured right before my very own two eye holes.

That was the day Fredo Mercution the Bard of Fails was born (copyright /u/smokiepots) have an awesome day!

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2015-06-04, version 3.3.1*

This app is amazing… The only thing is I don't like about it is it doesn't work on my Mac, and there is no place to put in your sight ability as well as physical attributes. Other than that this is an amazing app and I use it every time that we have an encounter. And I have been in about three different groups. Each of us now use the app we barely use our paper anymore. If you're playing for D&D at all this is a must have!

### 1/5 — Deletion Bug?

*2022-04-19, version 3.3.5*

App is bugged or broken, no matter how many times i save to the cloud everything i enter is being deleted, and it crashes everytime i try to load a cloud save file.

### 1/5 — No data, what's the point?

*2017-04-26, version 3.3.5*

There's no data for anything pre-loaded. So, you could type up half the player's handbook just to make a character...No thanks. For $3 I'd expect something more than a recycled GUI.

### 1/5 — App is empty, pointless, and not 'free!'

*2015-04-17, version 3.3.1*

Besides an awkward to access dice roller the entire app is redundant because it wants you to buy a 'compendium' otherwise you must enter in ALL of D&D's rules, spells, equipment, races, items, etc. by hand on your phone. A ridiculous concept, I know! The owner of these apps needs to find another way to monetise them, this is why he has no feedback on the app and why it is one of those apps you delete within minutes of downloading it.

### 1/5 — Bad product, not easy to set up

*2015-04-07, version 3.3.1*

This is the absolute worst app I have come across for D&D character tracking. It is not user friendly, and takes forever to save any character in the start from scratch format. I have had to restart twice to build my character because the files don't auto save or back up until you click the finish button.  

What "Joe Blow" will know how to take a .ddi character sheet file and transpose it to an .xml format so they can download it to Dropbox. 

I will be contacting Apple for a refund of this purchase as it was the worst quality I have ever seen. 

Please consider ease of customer set up and use before you design such an app. All it has accomplished is wasting my time and money.

### 1/5 — -

*2014-10-12*

Платная версия абсолютно ничем не отличается от бесплатно. Русского языка нет.

### 1/5 — Faulty

*2011-11-07, version 1.22*

Anytime I try to input any information the application closes and I'm back staring at my home screen on my iPhone 4. What the heck?

### 2/5 — I️ use to really like app

*2017-11-16, version 3.3.5*

I loved this app in the past it was great. So much so i bought the full version. But this week I redownloaded it because my friends and i are starting up playing again. I spent hours marking a character and putting all the powers in detail in with items and descriptions. Then the next day it was all gone. Just gone, deleted forever. Hours of my time just deleted.

### 2/5 — Used to better if I remember right

*2016-07-30, version 3.3.5*

I feel like when I first got this app, it had the ability to automatically input certain aspects of a character, like fighters having a certain amount of health, and easy money managment. Now I come back to it and find I have to pay money to create more than one character and even when I do, it doesn't have an easy to use character creator anymore?
The only good thing it has going for it anymore is that it can serve as a fairly useful character sheet. I just wish actually making the character was as fun and easy as it used to be.

### 2/5 — iPad auto closes

*2015-02-06, version 3.1.1*

Works perfectly on iPhone, but auto closes immediately upon opening app on iPad Air running 8.1.3. Demo worked fine, but upon full purchase, ipad version immediately stopped working. Fix immediately.

### 2/5 — Can't load iCloud data?

*2014-06-30, version 2.2.1*

I have the ipad version, and absolutely love it, but I can't load its data onto the iPhone version 😞 

It's finding the iCloud data, but my character sheets aren't loading.
I go to the app's settings, turn on iCloud, 'Load icloud Data', and nothing happens.

Please dev(s), I'd love a fix! It's such a pleasure to use otherwise.

### 5/5 — Love it

*2022-11-21, version 3.3.5*

Awesome

### 5/5 — Old but wonderful

*2022-04-09, version 3.3.5*

It’s not as supported as 5e obviously but the user interface is superb. Highly recommend.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2017-10-16, version 3.3.5*

Would be a little better with drop menus and what not, but I truly love this app.

### 5/5 — Easy to organize

*2017-04-15, version 3.3.5*

Getting started takes a little to enter skills but you can save them and attach them to other characters

### 5/5 — Perfeito

*2016-11-29, version 3.3.5*

Gostei muito. Me ajudou muito nas sessões

### 5/5 — Fantastic app

*2016-11-02, version 3.3.5*

Really makes character use in combat easy. Totally worth the money!

### 5/5 — Completely Changed Game Night!

*2016-02-20, version 3.3.5*

This app, along with the same developer's Fight Club app have both completely changed game night for the better. What used to pause game to look things up, or to calculate effects, or to simply note things now runs seamlessly. We have found game to run more smoothly, and with more fun. And after-all, isn't that the point?

### 5/5 — Great app

*2015-12-05, version 3.3.5*

Even though they took the data away, the app is great. I used an xml file I created to upload some of the data.

### 5/5 — Cool

*2015-11-21*

Beautiful app, 5 stars

### 5/5 — Pretty Sweet

*2015-11-01, version 3.3.5*

Free app wins! 
Customizable character creation with automated stat updates.
