Dungeon Realms: Chat & Roll

I love this app! I have played text TRPG on another app and I feel this app has a much more immersive feel to it that doesn’t make me just feel like I’m texting on a different platform but really actually getting into another realm. It is very exciting. I was very impressed with the free tutorial module the app provides. It made DM’ing a fairly easy and fun experience for me, who had almost no DM’ing experience. I am highly considering paying for the other pre built campaigns. There are definitely still things that need to be improved upon, but the developers are aware for his and constantly looking for feedback and improving the app.

The concept for this app has been in development for YEARS. Dungeon Realms is a group of indie developers that are pouring their heart and soul into this project. I backed this on Kickstarter many years ago and I’m super happy to see it through. Is the app perfect right now, no. But the reason I still give it 5 stars is because the team is super dedicated to making it better. This is an app that won’t be dropped or forgotten about, but will keep improving. So far I love it and I know it’ll just get better. For context I’m a current DM running an in game mod for my players and it has everything I need. I’m excited to eventually use the home brew features but what they have right now has been perfect for me to get started.

I think it’s simplicity betrays how much complexity of a role playing experience this app has boiled down to ease of use. This app has when it comes to playing, setting, and experiencing a tabletop rpg the best experience you’ll find on a mobile device. The little notifications from this app are always my favorite part of the day.
