I’m playing a JotL and Gloomhaven original campaign. I also the the ability to adjust how the app works for how you run the game. This app is very helpful and can significantly declutter a table and reduce house keeping. See the Gloomhaven Helper homepage for more information:

When a monster is flying, the monster ability card shows the "flying wings" icon for movement rather than the usual "boot".Monster abilities report the numbers to use, reducing stat lookup (Range 3 instead of Range -1).Rows are sorted using the initiative order, making it clear who is next.Devices running the app can be synchronized over the network so each player can view and change the game state from their own personal device.the element infusion board, element discs, and round trackerīesides making setup easier, Gloomhaven Helper also improves play in many new ways:.Gloomhaven Helper eliminates the need for the following Gloomhaven components:

Playing the game becomes faster, as does setup and tear down. It tracks initiative, monsters, and players so you can focus on playing the game rather than bookkeeping. Try mystics and mice instead or pokemon.Gloomhaven Helper is the officially licensed companion app for playing the Gloomhaven board game and Forgotten Circles expansion, without losing the board game feel. Young kids are not recommended for this game. Discovering is a huge part of this world (mostly in dungeons).ĭo I have a score? No, because honestly I don't have anything similar to compare it to. This game does fantasy in a different universe from your standard dwarves and elves. Play it solo and master the basics (have a search engine ready). If yo u cannot wait to see what happens next, buy it. Try a round with a friend's Gloomhaven first. Oddly enough I have no regrets, even with my poor choices. Your decisions will stick with you to the end of this game. However none of these issues would prevent me from trying again. Yes, it takes a very long time to play and it gets exponentially worse with each added player. Yes, you will lose a ton and will have to set everything up again.

Yes, the rules for the enemy movement is very confusing. Yes, it does take a while to setup and clean up. I needed to purchase extra containers just to close the box!

The price tag did make Gloomhaven look less appealing, however this singular box contains so much. I don't normally play board games or any rpg that is not a video game.
