I’m wishing for this app and company’s success, because it was super helpful. One of the hardest thing for me to find time to do is reading the manual before I play the game. So sometimes, the game does not get played for a full year. I have over a hundred board games. While I strive to play all of them, it is just difficult to get to all the new unopened ones in a timely manner. So Dized has made it a dream come-true for me. I finally got to open and play Gloomhaven: Buttons and Bugs, Cuthulhu: Death may die, AND I got to revisit and clarify some rules on spirit island. I haven’t played spirit island in a long time because I had forgotten the rules. I didn’t want to read the rule book again, so I left it unplayed for another 2 years. So, I’m glad I downloaded Dized. Brought back joy into my life with my board games. I’m looking forward to so many more tutorials. In fact, I’m probably going to prioritize what I play and what I buy based off the available tutorials that are available on Dized. I just love that Dized has a mix of all different board games and not just easy board games. Cuz anyone can learn the easy board games, but the harder ones are more satisfying.

The tutorials are great. However the tools in the paid subscription don’t fit on an iPad screen. They fit the wider aspect ratio of phones - and it looks like an attempt was made to use one size to fit all, because there’s a lot of side margin space for the tools on phone. But It’s still too wide for a standard aspect ratio tablet. Would appreciate a fix since I already paid for a yearly sub. Also, posting this here because the “feedback” button in the tools did nothing.

As a family man that enjoys playing all sorts of games with his family and a coder minimalist, I was really excited about Dized when I learned about it. I loved the idea of a digital repository where I could “store” my board game rulebooks. Using Dized, however, is an entirely different story… Its UI just feels clunky and bulky and not well thought out. Navigating between “tabs” is harsh and viewing the hosted tutorials and rules is just weird. It looks like the rules are just web pages viewed from within the application… :/Its features are lacking, too; I wish there was a way to favorite games so you can come back to them later. In addition, I still haven’t figured out what my “credits” are supposed to be used for…

I’m surprised that this app is not more popular. I used the tutorial feature to teach me how to play Tiny Epic Dungeons. It was INCREDIBLE. The tutorial is made to use as you play and will tell you the rules based off what happens in the game you are playing. I was very impressed with how thorough it was with including extra clarifications and side notes. Wonderful app. I have only used it for this one game so it is possible that their tutorials are not available for every game. Either way I think its worth a try.
