Dungeon Masters Sidekick Extraordinaire!

This App is So helpful for organizing my thoughts & ideas with placeholders for stories & encounters allowing me to quickly add & fine tune my adventures. I can even add & create more creatures to the already great bestiary & All at a moment’s notice right in my pocket.
I Love It! Worth Every Penny.

10/10 would pay more

This is a fantastic app that has made keeping track of encounters, treasure and xp so very easy! It gives more time to enjoy the story and actually role play instead of dragging encounters out. You can even roll initiative, attacks, skill rolls... all on the monsters’ sheets.

I would make 3 suggestions: A prompt to save when going back to prevent lost story, a skull or indicator on the encountered creatures list column on the left (There is one on the individual creatures sheet, but not all fit on screen at once) and a way to donate to further development and fine tune this app.

Enough criticism from me. I thoroughly enjoy Game Master 3.5. It’s the absolute best I’ve tried, and I’ve tried many apps.

The Best

Keep it coming guys and gals. This makes things run so smooth for me. Keep it updated. Thanks all around. Please UPDATE! Love this app. Always worried at each update that the app may not function.

Only because...

I do love this app but I am hoping that you will update the bedtiary to include other creatures.

Great app!!

No more hauling around multiple notebooks and searching for monster stat blocks and loot. It’s all here in one place on the app!

Great resource for 3.5 GMs

I have been using the resource more frequently and enjoy it very much.
I just wish it was available for Android OS also.

Meh.

It is basically a spreadsheet where you have to manually enter in your character sheets and monster stats. The built in spell reference is nice as is the searchable rules. However, not of the calculations are done for you. For example, if you have a character or monster with a masterwork short sword you would have to simple make a typed note in the attack section. Useful and fairly priced. Tbh I would rather pay more for an app that supports all the D20 calculations, has selectable spells in stead of having to type the names and descriptions... etc etc

Almost Perfect

This is possibly my favourite app of all time. If possible, a few things added would give it the boost it needs to be the best app hands down, for all time. Don’t worry curious reader, I won’t leave you high and dry, I will moisten your thirst for knowledge. First lets go with some misses, I’d like a version that allows me access to all 3.5 books, or lets me buy digital copies of them to fill my monster manual up. More classes and yadda yadda yadda. Next, a graph addition, where I can map out my own dungeons, I mean come on, how good would it be if I had the encounter written out, but also had a graph I could pull up so I could do the dimensions on my graph paper spot on? Probably some more things, but my wife is eyeing me up something fierce and I will have to leave you at this. Be good and safe children.

This app is perfect for DMs

This app has been very helpful as a first time DM. It allows me to have all my notes in one place and I can access them from anywhere.

Just absolutely fantastic!

I use this app for managing pretty much everything on my campaign.

From combat, to encounters to overarching of the story to keeping track of treasure, XP, and having reference photos to show my players.

Seriously, this is a fantastic app.

Excellent for combat

The best app ever for smoothly getting combat done, streamlines the whole process. Combine with fight club and you have your PCs as well. Quick reference for those "what does panicked mean?" situations. Two suggestions would be to have the ability to randomly roll the hp for multiple monsters of the same type, and to be able to update your purchase on different/newer devices - the update thing is the only reason this is not 5 stars

Surprisingly good

It actually has all the tools I needed to be quick when I was DMing it really enjoyed it and was very surprised when I found out that the app was not just outdated but actually was semi frequently updated my one request form it is if you could a tab for PC to not just NPC but other then they i found this to be almost everything I needed to be a DM other then the books themselves.

Was great hopefully will be again soon

This app was a fantastic staple to my campaigns, and with the new update i was very excited about all the changes, except for one... you can no longer download character sheets provided from their companion app, fight club 3. Hoping to see that change back soon

Not bad, buy the extra features

In general, the app offers bare basics for quick reference. Scry Free was only slightly better, because it's free version also came with class tables. $2.99 isn't bad for what you would get, but the lack of info on iconic monsters, like the beholder, keep the price from seeming completely fair.

so how to select languages??

Wonderful D&D Tool

I'm a beginner DM and this App has been a life saver.

Wish I had known about it when I was just a player cause there's So much useful info in this thing!

Very Helpful

This app is amazing for keeping track of campaigns, keeping tabs of encounters and battles and even has an encyclopedia with the numerous spells of every class and info on such. Very Helpful!

A must for my campaign!!

My only complaint is that I've become so reliant on this app that I don't know if I could go back to the days of pen & paper. Everything I wanted and more.

Ok, one more complaint. The Beastiary has seemed to have diminished dramatically. A lot less monsters than before. Just noticed this issue today.
