Magwa's Magic Item Compendium 9+

Nice idea with issues

The app is simple and generally fun on it’s face. The art is nice and the generating flavor text is nice. I found it be cause it was up for an award. It will likely not win because of issues.

1) Crashes. It does it most on customs but even looking at the store it may lock on you or crash to desktop.

2)Odd pricing. There is no way to buy all options and as it is to use the full program all options is $17. There is no buy all or discounts all packs are $2 except the first. That first pack at 4.99, I presume is priced to pay for the app but the others are true micro transactions and well prices except for that first one! Come on guys level the pricing or even recommend the first pack with a good reason.

On the positive side

The art while not AAA professional is good stuff. Making a magic item as custom is nice. Unfortunately, there is no common items or class but it has all the other standard rarity levels. The writing is great and the free price makes it worth a look.

**Note revised review as it is not pointed out but after generation you can “Share” items created using Standard iOS options as a jpg.

Best used as a magic item maker

Although not perfect, it’s everything I could have asked for in a free app. It has a collection of magic items to get you started, but I find that the true value is in making your own magic items. It gives you a verity of text boxes clearly labeled with the item’s name, the rarity, the description (a place for flavor text), mechanics, and requirements (for example, if the item requires attainment). And if that wasn’t enough it also lets you sort them neatly into separate groups.

And if that wasn’t enough, it also has a verity of nice pictures to help you craft your own items (with many art packs for sale to give you more pictures). But if you’re broke like me then they also have the option to add your own picture. But if you use this app as much as I do to help make store all the homebrew magic items then I encourage you to do right by the devs and buy an art pack or two to help support their work.

Amazing and Helpful App!

This app provides services, that help with the creation process of a magic item. Instead of having to write it down in a document, or use a piece of paper, you can easily keep, and store your ideas in this app. The app also houses images that on occasion I use for creative inspiration. With such a large library of images, I feel like if I ever needed a new magic item, I would be able to make one stress free.

There was recently a bug in the app that did not let iOS users to download expansion images. I left a concerned review, hoping that maybe they would fix the issue in the future. The next day they had fixed the app, and left a comment on my review letting me know. 10/10
