User reviews

Very good

Very nice app, the ability to make extended test is very useful.
The one annoying thing are the sounds that you can’t disable and the fact that you can’t delete presets.
If there is a option window I couldn’t find it.

Successes and Glitches

Okay, this is ok if all you need is something to track your initial dice rolls. It doesn’t reroll your successes. Nor if your glitches exceed your successes, does it show you that either.

Is the developer going to continue working on this app? Last update was 5 months ago.

Response from developer

2018/02/16 Changed : Although it seems to be pointed out that it is not limited only to Google translation, it seems to be pointed out that the behavior around glitch rule is wrong, but I feel sorry but my English is not strong enough to understand specific mistakes. If you point out the specific point that this item of the rule (possibly also the posting page) can not be realized, you can respond promptly.

This is a really good start

I am really glad to see you are working on this project. I like what I see so far. Truly. Need to let people insert whatever numbers they want however. When writing up things like free spirits, dragons, or 25+ year old characters, the caps are just not helpful. I will definitely update my reviews as I am able and updates to this application become available.

I am uncertain how the character storage is handled, but having the ability to link to iCloud or Dropbox, etc... Would of course be great.

Edited: remove the limits on skill numbers as well as attributes then. Is there anything we the community could to help?

Response from developer

Thank you for using this app. Because there is no translation version in the rule book mother tongue (Japanese), and because I do not have much English translation skills, the processing of the specific character and scale of the number of dice and the kind of character I apologize for being unsatisfactory in terms of rules. We will think about countermeasures for cloud storage in the future, but we think that it is difficult because of the data format problem. Edit(17/08/02) : "Limits" means as rule term ? I found problem that "Limits" can set only up to 10, will fix it on next version.

Good start - but needs work

Intuitive app with clean design. It is not terribly usable though because the dice pool size is limited to 20. I would also like to be able to type in the dice pool size instead of using up and down arrows.

Response from developer

Thank you for your advice. I would like to make efforts to improve the point you pointed out. (Edit:2017/08/03) : If you have time, please rate the updated latest version.
