Sheet Yourself: Create/Manage RPG Character Sheets Reviews

Great if you want to meta.

Had high hopes for this app, but as a new dnd player, I wanted something to simplify my character sheet experience. This is not the app to do that. This app is great for those players who like the game within a game feeling and get satisfaction from organizing and laying things out. I will revisit this after I have more experience, but for now I can't recommend this unless you really know what you're doing. I didn't mind paying to support the dev however, as it is well thought out for involved players.

Not for beginners

Great app and well made. Unfortunately I'm new to d&d and needed some help and in this app you have the opportunity to create all aspects nothing is prebuilt with multipliers or preloaded spells I did find an app that help me get started called fight club PFRPG so if u like to create yourself this is a great app if you need some help check out fight club

Incredible with flaws

Honestly, this is a great app. The only issues I would say would have is it is sometimes buggy and doesn't always save my information. Otherwise I really love the versatility and abilities that you have within this app in creating your own personal space.

Almost amazing... Almost usable

As has been mentioned, you have to build every character sheet from the ground up. Classes, races, abilities, attribute scores, feats, skills, traits, backgrounds and even rules (Collectively I will call them objects) can be built into this app. Basically you can (and must) define and build everything necessary for your campaign. Everything is modular. That is Sheet Yourself's promise of power. Mix and match and recreate new characters (sheets) on the fly by using objects that you've already made. The dev's are going the right way, but implementation has revealed a fatal weakness of reusing objects in Sheet Yourself. Every object you make is unique. So, you can make an object called "STRength" and assign that to a character and set it to a value you want. That works great. But now if you assign the object STRength to a second character, it's referencing the same object with the same value. So both characters are forced to have the same STRength value (change it for one, and you changed it for both). Kinda pointless. There are work arounds (create many unique STRength objects), but this workaround magnifies the inherent weakness of the app. Mainly that it's a lot of work. Until the dev's implement the ability to assign a copy (instance) of an object, that isn't tied to other copies (instances) this app is a time intensive and pretty character sheet that is missing by inches the potential to drive the way I run my game. It currently exhibits little in the way of time/effort saving utility. I've spoken with the devs and made it clear what it will take to make the app useful and I'm told that a new iOS version is coming soon that "should make me happy". I really really hope so. This one feature would turn this app from a wish of awesome to an indispensable component of my table top role playing experience.

I love it except for the bugs

It's great I've got everything in one place an organized do the first time EVER I highly recommend it for any table top rpg That's what I would like to say but I spent an entire plain ride creating five full pc sheets then when I copied one half my sheets reverted to the time before I edited them so all my work was for null if this got a major bug fix I would rate it 5 stars but at the moment I rate it 3

Very Nice Aesthetic

I like the look of this app over other character sheet apps by far. I've had a couple of crashes while attempting to reorder details, but otherwise no complaints :)

Great idea but...

This app is extremely complicated to use very hard to customize your character and every time you try and add attribute or change your weapon a glitches out like I said it's a great idea but at this point I really wish I could just get my money back because it was not worth the eight dollars that I spent hopefully some New updates will fix some of these bugs but this is not ideal for Dungeons & Dragons character sheet it's by far too much work to add everything that you need in to run a real game

Complicated and time consuming

I understand that this is supposed to be system agnostic. The result, though, is a really expensive "custom" sheet. It actually is easier for me to use pen and paper than this app.

Pretty good

???????????

It's good, but I don't like how you need to make a new sheet for every spell. That gets a bit much, even though you can link them. There is also a button labeled "order" which I assume allows you to change the order of the categories, but I can't click it.

Mastery of the rpg realm

RPG made easy

This app though it can seem intimidating at first, is a beautiful thing to work with. It takes a little playing around much like when you get a new smart phone or tablet that you have to learn. However once you get the hang of it this really streamlines the RPG game process. It is just beautiful as far as getting all the information into the game that you need. With hyperlinking for the rest. Highly recommend!
