Great idea works fine

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2024-12-17, version 2.3.1*

If you’re a GM which I specialize in, get this. It is so high quality and super useful.

### 5/5 — Love this app

*2024-12-03, version 2.3.1*

Great app, saves so much time if you get stuck and need a little bit of help during your homebrew.

### 5/5 — This is so useful

*2024-11-19, version 2.3.0*

I’ll have trouble coming up with ideas but this just saved me a LOT of time thank you .

### 5/5 — Wow!

*2024-10-17, version 2.3.0*

So much value! I can’t DM without this app anymore, I am so spoiled. So many awesomely generated options as well as a very useful soundboard!

### 5/5 — Tons of tools, genuinely free

*2024-09-10, version 2.2.2*

I'm blown away by the variety and quality of the tools and resources here! Someone put a lot of love into this app, and I'll be using it every session.

### 5/5 — Awesome app

*2024-09-04, version 2.2.2*

feature request icloud support so i can start on one device and finish on another

### 5/5 — Super pratique!

*2024-07-22, version 2.2.2*

M’aide beaucoup pour développer ma campagne! App au top 👍🏽

### 5/5 — Dungeon divers/ DMs

*2024-05-11, version 2.0.0*

This helps out so much. It helps you fill in pieces that normally would take us a good amount of time and planning. For myself it allows me to think more on the adventure continuing! Try it out! There’s a one time fee of 99¢ (varies on what country you live in) and all your content is saved in one app. There is a randomizer for basically anything. You also have the option to create from a blank asset. Check it out!

### 5/5 — INCREDIBLE resource!

*2024-04-17, version 2.0.0*

As a DM, this has more or less everything I could want as far as little tools to make things easier on me / prevent me from trying to stuff too much stuff in my brain. A+. Premium is a STEAL, even a rogue would pay for it.

### 5/5 — Wow

*2024-03-22, version 2.0.0*

Best app for beginner dms and advanced I’m sure! I’m just starting as a dm and I have almost all the books, but I can never find any good ideas for stores or other, and it’s also very hard to find lvl 1 challenges in the monster manual (yes I know it lists them in the dm book) but it’s always hard to have to pick up the monter manuel and look through it every time I want an encounter. This is an amazing app and it’s completely free. (Unless you want premium which is only 0.99$) JUST WOW

### 5/5 — There is so much

*2024-02-16, version 2.0.0*

It’s amazing how much this offers. It’s a wonderful toolkit that deserves support. Thank you so much

### 5/5 — Awesome tools for first time GM

*2024-02-09, version 2.0.0*

I straight up bought the premium version because the free version actually offered so much that I actually wanted to support the developers for once.

### 5/5 — Fantastic

*2024-02-06, version 2.0.0*

This app has almost everything you could ever need/want for running a game. However I wish there were more race options for npc’s and a filter for generating any sort of content. That way when you have something certain in mind you can filter in the things you want and let the app fill in the rest of the blanks. Other than that it’s a great app!

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — They just take dnd content and put it in here

*2023-07-21, version 1.5.0*

All this app does is randomly take dnd content, put it in here, and say its originally theirs. Even though they say this crap is for other ttrpg systems too, it's all dnd so save space on your device and just get something actually useful.

### 3/5 — Lacking customization

*2020-12-17, version 1.0.6*

Little useful things here that most GMs tend to over look. Would be great if I was able to edit what’s there in the app or even add my own entries (puzzles, traps, etc.) 
Provides a good quick note but really lacking in being an essential tool as I can’t have all I need right in the app...

### 4/5 — Great app just needs some adjustments

*2026-02-05, version 3.0.0*

The app is great but anytime I try to save anything the app kicks me out and restarts.

### 4/5 — An idea

*2025-04-23, version 2.3.2*

This is generally a good app, what I want to be able to do though is save voice notes and recorded sounds to the sounds/music section. I would be happy to upgrade to the premium if there was for sure a way to have all the audio I need to run my table in the one place.

### 4/5 — Great

*2025-01-17, version 2.3.2*

Such a useful app, especially for improvising scenarios as a DM

### 4/5 — Just some recommendations

*2023-09-06, version 1.5.0*

There are a few recommendations I would like to make, however, it’s a great app all together.
The saved items file should have files inside the file as well to separate and organize items for quick and easy access. 
Also, the a quite a bit of repeats when make random events and other random things, although, the generator still helps with improv.

### 4/5 — As a new DM I love this app

*2023-07-21, version 1.5.0*

Great for planning sessions and Improv at the table

### 4/5 — A GM’s saving grace

*2023-06-16, version 1.4.4*

This app generates stuff like no other. I’ve used it many times for prep in my campaign and it works like magic. The only problem is that you need to have premium to edit treasure.

### 4/5 — Npc races

*2022-12-13, version 1.4.2*

I love the app, but I wish there were more races to pick from when generating more Npcs

### 4/5 — Great but missing one thing…

*2022-07-15, version 1.3.4*

I have really enjoyed using this app and it has saved me from a few awkward moments at my table, but I have realized that it has something missing from the quick shops. Their names! I know that it provides an NPC to run the shop who has a name, but the generator does not provide a names for the shop itself. I would otherwise absolutely give this generator a 5 star review as it is very helpful in other areas.

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — By far the best toolkit for GMs!

*2026-08-05, version 3.3.0*

This app is an absolute lifesaver at the table. Whether I am prepping a deep session ahead of time or needing to improvise a random NPC, tavern, or magic item on the fly, the quick generators work instantly. I love that it operates completely offline with zero intrusive ads or forced signups. The party cheat sheet makes tracking damage and stats super smooth during fast-paced combat, and the added puzzles and mini-games have saved my skin more than once when my players went completely off the rails. Essential download for any 5e table!"

### 5/5 — It’s what you need

*2026-06-21, version 3.3.0*

All the extra tables, sounds and  doodads with might need, and more. Really great simple app.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2026-05-02, version 3.3.0*

This app is such a great resource! It’s simple, quick, responsive and minimalistic. I was able to jump right in and have resources ready to go for my game.The creator is also super active on their discord and added a feature I requested within a week. They went above and beyond what I could have hoped for. It is also well worth the preimum version but the free one works great too.

### 5/5 — Nice job

*2026-04-02, version 3.1.0*

I’ve been using the app for a while but the current version is very nice. The best I’ve seen and I’ve been gaming since 1978 and using RPG apps for over 20 years. The only thing I might change is having a version that isn’t so tied to 5e.

### 5/5 — Amazing Resource for all GM's

*2025-12-12, version 2.5.1*

Im just starting a campaign and genuinely this feels like such an easy to use and very useful tool. These are very hard to come by nowadays and I hope the team continues to support this for all the DND groups out there that would benefit from this tool. I hope this gets more popular because I simply cannot gush about how useful this is.

### 5/5 — Very useful generator and tools and reasonable price

*2025-09-27, version 2.5.0*

I like the puzzles and game set examples also

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2025-08-03, version 2.5.0*

Great app super cheap premium really helped me up my DM game

### 5/5 — Brilliant App

*2025-07-24, version 2.5.0*

Michael Wu deserves more downloads and credit.

### 5/5 — If u DM u want this

*2025-06-04, version 2.4.0*

Helpful for coming up with new ideas

### 5/5 — Absolutely amazingly useful!

*2025-03-02, version 2.3.2*

The level of options is staggering! I don’t know how I got through a campaign before I found this!
