If your looking for an easy map maker to throw some maps together this is perfect, but since the “free mode” it has gone downhill, there are things locked that shouldn’t be, torches, bookshelves, a lot of the plants. the wall selection is…. Bad, it only has cobblestone, wood, and brick (locked without subscription), and the floors are okay, there’s plenty of options, except you can’t use the dock without a subscription, even tho I’ve used it before, and where are the desert themed items, you have tomb things but not anything related to the most notable tombs ever? And no steering wheel or crows nest without paying, I know you need to get money to keep your app running but I would much rather watch an add every 30 mins than try to fight with not having a steering wheel or torches in my pirate ship, and don’t even get me started on logging in, I like the concept or having a rune password, but once I put it in it shouldn’t freeze and not let me in, and final thing, when I save a map that has water, when I go in to crop it to make print it on to pages, the water turns a light blue instead of the color I need, if you could fix these problems this game could easily rival any map making software

I downloaded this app yesterday and played around with it, I need a way to make maps for my d&d campaign's with friends so I downloaded this app to hopefully make it easier. I will say it's a lot easier than some websites I have visited (probably because I am on mobile) but my problem with it is that every couple of second this app makes me re-type my password, sometimes I can't even place a couple tiles because right after I typed my password it asked me to again, I checked the reviews to see if this was a problem for other people and sure enough it was. The developers reached out to them and told them they would fix the problem but that was 3 year's ago, it's not quirky and unique to give us a runes password if you make us typenit in every 2 second's, I mean it seems like the whole point of the game isn't the maps it's just your password. If you like sliding your finger across the screen a lot of times in a minutes this is the app for you.

I literally can’t do anything because these stupid pop ups keep happening. It’s the same few pop ups over and over and it’s ridiculous. Don’t bother with this app.

I had a bug and they were able to repair it and give me a new download in less than three hours. Great art for map making. Great customer service!

Rune swipe password doesn’t feel convenient or secure, and must be entered quickly which is not helpful or accessible. App crashes as soon as I got to the menu and tried to click something. Interface has broken text formatting with words crammed overlapping on other words.

ive been having issues downloading maps, i have reached out to support multiple time including uninstalling and reinstalling and no solution. support has been no help and wont reply and at this point it isnt even worth it as much as i was enjoying it.

I don’t really write reviews, but this game was so disappointing I had to share. The passcode idea is cool, but the tabs do not work. No matter how much I tap the icons, they don’t budge.

The art is nice, and the concept is great, but the app contains bugs. After a few minutes of placing tiles, the program would seem to freeze; closing and reopening the app shows that it had continued placing tiles without showing me. Since the map is saved with every tile you place, there’s not much worry about losing loads of progress all at once, but it’s pretty inconvenient. The selection is decent, but I wouldn’t pay money for it after the 7-day trial ends. My recommendation is Dungeon Painter Studio on Steam if you’re not bound to an Apple device. It functions in the same way as this program, but has way more tools and choices. Plus, it’s not subscription-based.

I used to have a subscription but canceled when my I took a break from the app now that I'm logging back in won't let me do anything unless I buy the subscription again.

I really wanted to like this but it just doesn’t work. It doesn’t seem like you can pinch and pull to look at the map from different zoom perspectives. The erase button is in a completely different menu area. I keep trying to go to the settings (gear) icon but instead it takes me to a subscription ad that I can’t navigate away from. Theres a forced password system for some reason. Who needs to hide their dnd maps that much?! You’re locked out if dial away from the app for “too long”. I think the design would work on PC where there is a larger viewing area, but it just doesn’t work at all for iphone because it’s not designed with the user in mind + how people use their phones. Cute interface and you could tell a storyteller made it, but it needs to put effectiveness over artistry. Put all the gear and runes stuff into another app and simply just make this one work.
