Rulecraft is the companion for game night. It answers rules questions about the game on your table, counts everyone's life, picks who goes first, plays music that fits the game and keeps a record of every play. 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. RULES, ANSWERED • Ask anything about a game's rules, setup or scoring and get a straight answer • See the rulebooks and pages every answer came from • Come back to any question you've asked: your history keeps the whole answer • Rulecraft tells you when it found nothing, when the rules only cover part of your question, and when the sources disagree. It never invents a ruling to fill the gap. AT THE TABLE • A counter for the whole table: keep everyone's life on one phone, or open a room so each player counts on their own • Who goes first? Everyone puts a finger on the screen and Rulecraft picks one • Every game gets its own soundtrack, with ambience layered underneath EVERY PLAY, ON RECORD • Log what you played, who won and how long it took. Your game nights stay here, day by day • Keep the games you own in your collection, one tap away when an argument starts • Link your BoardGameGeek account to sync your collection and your plays both ways DISCOVER • Search the board game catalogue and see what everyone is playing in the daily ranking • Game pages with community photos, complexity, ratings and descriptions in your language MADE FOR IPHONE DUO Open your iPhone Duo and Rulecraft opens with it: game pages, your play log and the music player spread across both halves, and the life counter keeps every player's panel clear of the fold. RULECRAFT PRO Rulecraft is free to use, with a set number of questions each week. Rulecraft Pro removes that limit and adds: • Unlimited questions • Voice mode: ask out loud and hear the answer • Music that keeps playing when you leave the app or lock your phone • Music moods, to choose how the music sounds • No ads • Alternate app icons • Early access to new features Rulecraft Pro is an auto-renewing subscription, billed monthly or yearly.
