### 2/5 — No good for second edition

*2026-03-13, version 2.6.1*

Even though the app has a setting that allows you to select “Gloomhaven 2nd edition”, the scenarios are completely different to the booklet. As a result it can’t be used. 

Looks ok if you are playing the first edition.

### 4/5 — FroststeR?

*2025-11-22, version 2.6.1*

Love this app!!! My group is about to start Frosthaven and I wish this app supported that game.

### 5/5 — Amazing campaign app

*2025-01-19, version 2.6.1*

Wonder for figuring out where I am / helping setup

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2024-12-31, version 2.6.1*

Practical and helpful

### 4/5 — Good app

*2024-12-19, version 2.6.1*

Best Apple Store scenario app for Gloomhaven.

To gain a 5th star from me, please add (happy for it to be a paid feature) proper recording of looted treasure so it no longer displays the treasure in the scenario if it’s already been looted (i.e. repeating the scenario) and there is a marker next to the scenario in the list to say if the treasure has been looted or vice versa.

Also and very minor, when switching to available scenarios it only shown uncompleted scenarios.  However completed scenarios are still available in casual mode and players may want to repeat them, perhaps to get missed treasure. Could there be 3 categories - all, available uncompleted, available all. Again, perhaps a paid feature.

Thanks

### 5/5 — Great app

*2023-10-08, version 2.6.1*

This app is exactly what I was looking for to avoid spoilers when setting up a new dungeon. No complaints, although it doesn’t support multiple parties. That’s kind of a bummer, but it probably isn’t the majority of use cases. Just something to be aware of.

### 4/5 — Amazing app

*2023-09-14, version 2.6.1*

I absolutely love this app. Very well made and perfect for tracking. My only issue is that when I click on the sections of forgotten circles and the extra things, I can’t click back to the scenario page. Please fix this.

### 5/5 — Great!

*2023-09-13, version 2.6.1*

Great!

### 5/5 — Great App

*2023-06-04, version 2.6.1*

Keeps track of scenarios completed, scenarios unlocked, prosperity, reputation, treasure tiles looted and what’s inside each treasure, shop price modifier, plus has the entire scenario book without spoilers. When you open a scenario you will only see the introduction and what you need as far as tiles, set up and starting room information. But the rest will be blurred out, as you open doors you click on the room in the scenario and it reveals what is inside the room so you can set it up and continue playing. Once you finish the scenario you click on the conclusion portion and can read that, it automatically unlocks the scenarios and adds the rewards as far as prosperity and reputation are concerned. Makes things much easier to keep track of, I’d highly recommend!

### 4/5 — Almost perfect

*2023-05-12, version 2.6.1*

Liked it so much I paid for the premium even though you don’t really need it. After that map tiles refused to blur, so I paid to remove one of the best features. So I wasn’t happy about that.
