Very buggy and extremely slow to load needs a serious fix!
This app used to work reasonably well, but somehow now it is super slow to load and to load content. In some cases the content never loads and all I get is a blank screen! In our most recent session of Forgotten Circles we tried to use app narration but every screen took minutes to load while we were forced to stop our game and wait for the spinning load circle to produce my purchased content, only to finally end with a blank screen without narration. I have spent way too much money on several game narrations to now have an unusable product! You have to fix this app!

Worth it for the acting and music alone but fire the app team
Bought for Kinfire Chronicles. The acting is fantastic, ambient noise effects is engrossing and the music is beyond 5 stars.
Only issue is the app not able to back to previous selection and due to story choices and branching the app sometimes does and doesn't include options. Sometimes it takes you to the next story card automatically and other times it doesn't.
I feel the app team is perhaps overseas support team that could care less about the Forteller company.

Great voice acting, but unusable interface.
My group held off playing Sleeping Gods until the voice over became available, but after just two sessions we’ve gone back to the story book.
The app is not intuitive at all. There are 1 second recording screens with every entry that seem totally unnecessary. It’s often unclear if we’ve selected the correct recording after just a few branching selections. Numerous times we’ve missed important information because it’s either non existent or too easy to skip over. It became apparent that we still needed to verify every entry with the storybook halfway though the first session.
On top of it all, the app will crash sporadically, sometimes in the same place over and over and sometimes randomly. Until the interface is completely redone, my group won’t be using this for any game. Nor would I recommend it for anyone. An incredible disappointment. Buyer beware!

Good voice acting, iffy interface
Picked up Sleeping Gods to use with the start of a new campaign and while the voice acting a great, the app really seems to struggle with the multiple branching paths of some of the stories. Often I have to click through multiple times to get to the next selection and going back always results in a blank screen, requiring me to go all the way back to the beginning of the section. I found myself needing to consult the story book every time to make sure something wasn’t missed. I think the app needs an interface rework to function with more complex games like sleeping gods where it’s not just one segment to read at a time, but a branching narrative.

Typical App Process Crap
In order to look at the app, you have to create an account. You may just want to see how much these add ons will cost you, but the app doesn’t display that, nor does it tell you before you create an account and login to find out that they are not using the Apple app purchasing system. Instead, you create an account and then the app tells you to go to their website. Stop wasting people’s time just to get their info.
