Gloomhaven Fight Companion 12+

Great but I have an issue

When creating a new character, the icons (I assume) that you would use to select your class are invisible. I can tell that I am changing my selecting as I swipe left and right, but I can’t see what is being selected. I end up blindly guessing until I find the right one. It is tedious. Am I missing something?

Creating characters will de redesigned in version 1.8.0

Great app missing a few key components

As others have mentioned, the app overall streamlines character deck management very well.

However, the item/equipment facet of combat is definitely not clear, and should be summarised in the tutorial. There is no indication of how to use the items unless you accidentally swipe on one and then realise that’s how you use/refresh them. It would also be nice if items such as Hide Armor had Activation Counts in the same way as abilities such as Frost Armor so that it doesn’t a binary Available vs. Spent state. And items such as Hide Armor should include their negative effects (e.g. two -1 attack cards) in their descriptions.

There is also a bug that appears to occur on character import which breaks/removes the Activation Count functionality on some ability cards (e.g. Frost Armor for Spellweaver); it works fine when you create the character from scratch though.

Also as others have mentioned, it would be nice to be able to add and manage ability enhancements.

All that said, you get a lot in this app that cleanly handles stuff in the background which would otherwise consume time micromanaging!

Great Helper App for Gloomhaven

I’m part of a group of guys that started playing JoTL over Zoom during the pandemic. This app has been an amazing help in allowing us to participate virtually and keep track of our own characters. We even came across a couple of issues with modifier cards during play, emailed the app creator and they were fixed within a short period of time. Fantastic app. Fantastic developer. Highly recommend.
