This is the perfect app for DMs/GMs looking to spice things up a bit. Tons of great, free, downloadable content that can be played offline with a subscription offer to get even more sounds. UI is very intuitive and sound transitions are seamless. Audio is immersive and you truly feel like you are in the game world. Audio quality is great, does not feel repetitive because the loops are so long, and audio plays when screen is off. Highly recommend installing this app! Wouldn't change a thing.

It updated and I don't like the new update. For one, it's slow and crashed while opening. Also, it's not user friendly. If I didn't have the app before, I wouldn't have known about the ambience and one shot sounds. And on that topic, why do I have to only have 8 sounds set up per scene? I DM for D&D and I use scenes interchangeably and I frequently use sounds that wouldn't be in a particular scene's first 8 choices. I can't be fiddling with the app mid game. I have other stuff to keep up with

The little bit I've tried has been very impressive. Perfect and high quality ambience that can play simultaneously with Spotify or your music of choice. Fantastic quality in the free version, and definitely will consider subscribing. I would probably be more keen to purchase a pack instead of subscribing, though. Only suggestion is more/customizable one shot noises! To not clutter it, maybe you can select up to 6 or 9 from a library of options? Could buy more or subscribe for more.
