App Profile: Five Minute Dungeon Timer

So the app worked normally when initially installed. The voice were a wonderful touch to bring a new element to the game. However after the fist day, 6 games the sound stopped working. It doesn’t have any sound now but still works at a timer. I find myself using my default timer on my phone so I can get audio when time ends. Hope this gets fixed it’s a nice addition.

This is a wonderful, simple, but fun timer app for use with the board game 5 minute dungeon. It fulfills its function wonderfully, and adds a nice extra layer to the game overall! Much better than a normal, boring timer. My biggest feedback (and the only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars), is that i wish the music was more adaptive. What I mean is that it would be really cool if the music started as is, but got more intense as the time got lower, so as to really ratchet up the tension and danger. It would also be nice if there was some kind of sound or holding music while the timer was paused (or while on the title screen/between runs), perhaps something more simple and tranquil to contrast with the intensity of the dungeon music. think the “back to town” music in classic video games, or even more minimalist (just not absolute silence). It would also be nice if the music was different for each narrator... All that said however, the app fulfills it’s purpose very nicely already!

I just purchased my copy from our local Walmart almost an hour ago after my brother got me to play his copy with him last night. We had a ton of fun & decided to download the timer to see what makes it special compared to using my iPhone’s default timer. It really does help focus on the game & find it interesting that there’s buttons for when you win & when you lose (when nobody has the cards to progress)
