With Dungeon Master you can do quite a few things:
1) Roll Dice - Beyond the basic capabilities of rolling with voice, you can give ask for more complex rolls. - 'Alexa, roll 3d10 + 6d4 + 12' 2) Quick Re-roll. After each roll, you can say 'Name that as ______' to save a roll. - 'Alexa, name that Kevin's Damage' - 'Alexa, roll Kevin's Damage' 3) Lookup Rules - Get the description of a certain rule type from the basic rules included in 5e open gaming license. - 'Alexa, search Acid Arrow' - 'Alexa, how many hit points does an Orc have?' - Many rules are not included, unfortunately, due to licensing. 4) Music - Say 'Alexa, play music' to change the tracks and hear something new. It plays for a while in the background, so just interrupt at any time by saying 'Alexa' to give a new command or make a new roll.
However, the real benefits come for users with a screen.
The enhanced display does a lot more:
1) The last 100 rolls are displayed in an easy to read table that shows when the roll was made, the name of the roll, the result of the roll, and the actual dice rolled (for example if you roll 4d6 it will list out each actual roll). 2) On this screen, you can type in new rolls and quickly reroll with the touch of a button. Typing format follows gaming conventions in the format {NumberOfDice} {DiceType} and stringing together as many as you want (1d20+2d10+4d6+5). 3) Rules table with all of the included rules in a searchable format. Want to see everything available with the word "fire" in the title? filter it down and then click to popup the rules! 4) Game Board. Actually, this deserves its own section.
GAME BOARD:
With an echo device, you can:
1) Add Icons 2) Zoom in and out 3) Move Icons 4) Name Icons 5) Pick Backgrounds 6) Resize Icons (1-5 squares) 7) Add notes (want to track HP, initiative, or statuses on each icon? Track literally anything you want) 8) And...
View your Room and Code!
I'm a tabletop gamer myself, and I know that even if everyone is in the same room, we all like to have our own devices. Use the included link, scan the QR code, or go to (https://llitd.com/skills/dungeon) and type the code and id in to join the gaming room.
You will see all of the shared rolls in that room as well as the board synced across devices. Someone renames or moves an icon, you will see the updates happen in real time!
If you run into issues, please contact me directly at lincolnjcole@gmail.com. If you want new features, icons, music, or backgrounds also contact me and let me know what you're looking for!
Feature Roadmap: I would like to enhance the rolls system to be more compatible with games like shadowrun and also to call out critical rolls or failures and things like that. I would also like to enhance the music section to allow you to choose what to play (if you're in the middle of combat, for example, I have combat music. Likewise, there is ambient music. Right now the category is randomly selected, but in the future it might be selectable). Any other features or enhancements players might request (seriously, reach out and tell me what you think of the skill and what could make it useful for you. Very few people ever actually do, and that's only if people actually read this far down the description).
Finally, if you enjoy using this skill and think it is useful for you or your friends in playing tabletop games, please consider leaving a review! Reviews help other users find skills and make the time spent working on things like this worthwhile. Thank you.
