Probably good but hard to tell – Encounter+ Review

This seems like a great app, especially if you are reduced to relying on mobile for VTT sessions. However I can’t rate this above three stars for a couple of reasons. First of all, the help documents are basically nonexistent. The links are there and provide minimal information, but not nearly enough. You are going to have to figure out the sequence of making campaigns, adventures, and encounters on your own and how everything fits together by trail and error. Want to add a PC? Ok. Expect to add and delete stuff until you are sure how it’s supposed to tie together. And what is the DDB field at the bottom of the PC sheet for? I thought to add a link to the PC sheet in D&D Beyond but it doesn’t do anything. Another issue I found is that it doesn’t provide a way do attack rolls for spells, such as shocking grasp but does do damage rolls. For maps, the ability to import your own are their for $6, which is steep. I’m willing to pay for features but only if I know they will work and I’ll be able to understand how to work them.
