Useful

It's pretty cool, and the decks I have help with basic ideas, but I wish that there was at least a way to earn the currency. I got two decks and then I couldn't buy anything else. All in all, it's useful, but disappointing.
Very Expensive

The gist of this app is that you use these little Star Points to "unlock" sets of prompts, ideas, etc. They start you off with 30, and have you unlock a 10 point set - "What kind of writer are you?". This set in itself is pretty useless, as it only asks you to write answers to a set of questions on a piece of paper (there's nothing more to it, you don't do anything with those answers). You then have 20 points remaining. With these points, you can buy more exciting, more expansive sets (such as Character Workshop). However, all the worthwhile sets cost anywhere from 30-50 Star Points. They set it up so you don't have enough left to get anything good. You can buy a set of 30 for a whopping $2 (In total, this would give you 50 Star Points on the first round). To give some perspective, there are: - 2 50 Point sets - 2 30 Point sets - 3 20 Point sets - 1 15 Point set So basically, to get enough Points to buy everything, you could spend up to $90. HOWEVER, their other app - Werdsmith - is the best writing app I've ever downloaded. It's entirely free (no in-app purchases) and has an amazing dynamic. It's EXTREMELY organized and I would definitely recommend it to any writer.
Great tool but costs a lot

This app is a great tool for anyone experiencing writers block. But it is a ton of money to unlock all the decks. Does anyone know how to get the stars for free?
Can't do ANYTHING without spending lots of money!

This app is supposed to be free, but right when you download it, you can't do anything without buying things! The prompts are ok, I guess, but I'll never actually see most of them because I don't want to spend all of my hard-earned money on a little app!
Pay to use

...but not NEARLY as much as one reviewer said. It will not cost you "$90" or some other astronomical number as someone said, if you add up all the star points you'd need to unlock everything, it's somewhere in the neighborhood of <$10. NOT $90. That being said, the prompts are useful, but nothing you couldn't look up for free on a good writing advice website. Developer's other app, Werdsmith, is much more useful.
It's helpful, but costs money

I really like the ideas of this app. Someone of the questions or whatever are a little boring, but it's ok. It helps me when I have writers block, but I'm stuck because it costs money. I don't have money to just spend on apps. I know the people need to make a profit, but still. I wish it was cheaper or something. I'd like to get the rest of card decks or whatever you call them.
Few tips about ?

So I love the idea and topics, but it's really expensive. Maybe have a way to earn points and not always have to buy them. Like a mini writing assignment. Then people will still buy somethings, but won't delete the app.?
Lovely prompts but need more

The one free deck of 'cards' they give is lovely, but you have to pay money for any more. There is no way to get coins for free in the app and you must pay for them.
It's both useful and useless

so far the decks i've used has helped me through a lot of writers block. but the fact i have to pay for the star coins is disappointing. i think you should add a daily log in feature where the user gets star coins everyday. it'll be helpful.
