Black Plague Companion Reviews

Not much point

Mic7781

It is basically just digital player cards and equipment cards. I expected t to have scenario builds, objective trackers, and the manual or at least FAQs. Maybe they will add more in the future.

Great app!

This is great for a solo player. Less setup and breakdown of the game. For future enhancements can you guys add a deck editor for both decks?

Currently playing using the app and we are having issues with items disappearing from equipped inventory. Maybe suggest an option to retrieve items from a discard pile. Using this as an option to resolve the issue? Would most likely be a 5 star app otherwise.

Beautiful but Work in Progress

The good. Characters are all there and they are in gorgeous HD. Leveling is easy. Drawing zombies, searching for items, even rolling dice are all great. The bad. No good way to trade items. What’s worse. Items have a bad habit of disappearing. In game to trade you must delete an item from your inventory which puts it back into the deck. When an item disappears the app still reads your character “owning” it. Effectively taking the weapon out of game play.

Very Good!

We LOVE the companion app. It makes the game run much smoother and quicker. The card draws for equipment and zombies are nice too, helps with more random draws if you shuffle bad. The instructions need to be update, we had no idea you could do rolls from each weapon, nor the armor and door bust rolls. The weapon rolls are really helpful when you have a high level character with a bunch of skills that add to dice rolls and what not - it auto calculates everything and lets you know if you hit or not. One other thing I wish the app had was colors for your miniatures. If you're playing with more than one character, without the color pegs it can get confusing who is who on the board.

Some issues

Good: Has all the survivor, zombie, and item cards from various expansion sets, dice rolls, survivor management, looks good. Bad: Some connection issues at times. Can't switch apps, or you'll disconnect. Handles only six survivors. Problems dragging items into inventory. Suggestions: Current player turn indicator could be more visible. Too easy to miss zombie turn, as the message is temporary. Maybe add some zombie sound effects.

Excellent app for Z:BP

I’d say this is a near perfect companion app. We had some issues when one survivors phone died and player controlled characters got randomly assigned to other players. We weren’t able to return control to the correct players. Even still, it was easy enough to restart and get everything back to where we had it quickly. The only other thing I’m hoping for is an update for Zombicide: Green Horde and it’s expansions to be added to the app. Maybe it can be updated after they’ve fulfilled the Kickstarters this summer?

Amazing app! They need these for their other games!

I really love this app. It makes the game run smoothly when you don’t have to shuffle all the cards or fiddle with all the dashboard organization. The game app takes care of it all for you. Leaving much more space on the table for zombies and other miniatures. Being able to join multiple apps together is brilliant and very easy to do. I would love to see them develop apps like this for other games, especially Massive Darkness! (OMG please!!) Are there improvements that could be made? Sure. And hopefully they’ll continue to update this app going forward. I’d love to be able to fine tune what expansions are in play (more so than it is now), but that’s a minor thing. A+++ on this one CMON (and whoever developed this app).

Needs Updated

Where is Green Horde? This app needs to be updated every time you release a new set, or it’s useless.

Green Horde?

It’d be nice if they’d add compatibility with Green Horde, all its expansions, and the Horde Box. After all, even though it’s a stand alone game, it was meant to be fully integratable with Black Plague.
