About

Rulecraft

Features
Read full description

Rulecraft answers rules questions about the board game on your table. Ask in your own words: the phase nobody remembers, the card that seems to break the game, how scoring actually works at the end. Rulecraft finds the rulebook, reads it, and answers with the sources it used, so you can check the answer instead of taking its word for it. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Ask anything about a game's rules, setup or scoring and get a straight answer • See the rulebooks and pages every answer came from • Search the board game catalogue and see what's trending • Keep the games you own in your collection, one tap away when an argument starts • Give every game its own soundtrack, with ambience layered underneath WHEN THE RULEBOOK DOESN'T SETTLE IT Rulecraft tells you when it found nothing, when the rules only cover part of your question, and when the sources disagree and none of them is the official word. It does not invent a ruling to fill the gap. RULECRAFT PRO Rulecraft is free to use, with a set number of questions each week. Rulecraft Pro removes that limit and adds: • Unlimited questions • Music that keeps playing when you leave the app or lock your phone • No ads • Control over how the music sounds • Alternate app icons Rulecraft Pro is an auto-renewing subscription, billed monthly or yearly. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. It renews automatically unless you turn off auto-renew at least 24 hours before the end of the current period, and you can manage or cancel it from your Apple Account settings. Privacy Policy: https://rulecraft.app/privacy Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Rulecraft is an independent app. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by any board game publisher. Game names and rulebooks belong to their respective owners.
