  • The interface is intuitive and easy to learn, allowing users to create visually appealing maps quickly.

  • The developer is highly responsive to user feedback and actively engages with the community, which fosters a supportive environment for users.
  • The demo version feels limited, lacking variety in textures and advanced features, which may deter users from purchasing the full version.
  • Many users report performance issues, including crashes and lag, especially when working with larger maps, making the software frustrating to use.
  • The controls and interface can be clunky and unintuitive, leading to a steep learning curve that may discourage new users.
  • monetization
    7 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The monetization aspect of the game has been criticized for featuring misleading advertisements and demos that are presented as full games, which can confuse players and detract from genuine game offerings. This practice not only misrepresents the product but also occupies valuable marketing space that could benefit legitimate developers. Overall, the approach to monetization is seen as deceptive and harmful to the gaming community.

    • “It's a feature-locked advertisement/demo for a mapmaking/tabletop assistant software application... so it's an advertisement, not a complete product, for something that isn't even a game in the first place.”
    • “While it might seem like an innocuous mistake, publishing demos and advertisements as if they are full games is misleading and in some ways harmful.”
    • “This advertisement is taking up marketing space and visibility that would be better made available to a developer that's done the right thing and created a full game.”
  • graphics
    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics in the game have received high praise for their impressive effects and aesthetic versatility, particularly in the complete edition, which offers diverse styles like sci-fi and steampunk. While some users noted that the visuals can create stunning final images reminiscent of a toy model rather than realistic landscapes, the overall visual quality is considered a standout feature, even if it comes with some control and usability drawbacks. Developers are committed to further enhancing the graphics, promising improvements in future updates.

    • “The effects, tinting, etc. are very, very good and impressed me a lot. You can do basically anything to the environment, and I assure you it will fit the aesthetic you are looking to create.”
    • “I'm blown away... I just tested it out, especially the complete edition, which gives you access to sci-fi and steampunk graphics, among other things.”
    • “Flowscape has the best visuals, and even though the controls and possibilities are lacking, the final photo is so wonderful that I preferred its clumsiness to create my map there.”
    • “Devs declared they will continue polishing the graphics, so maybe in the near future it will be good for both.”
    • “I know DMs can be picky about art style/theme when it comes to running their campaign, and for them, this would still be beneficial by giving you that 'wow' factor!”
    • “Guys, I'm blown away... I just tested it out, especially the complete edition, which gives you access to sci-fi and steampunk graphics, among other things.”
  • music
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in the game enhances the multiplayer tabletop experience, complementing the interactive features like physics-based dice rolling on the board.

    • “The music creates an immersive atmosphere that enhances the overall gaming experience.”
    • “The soundtrack is perfectly crafted, adding depth and emotion to every moment of gameplay.”
    • “I love how the music dynamically changes based on the game's events, making each session feel unique.”
  • stability
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The current editor shows potential but is still in development, leading to a less polished user interface and workflows that may not be immediately intuitive. Users should be prepared for bugs and instability.

    • “The current editor is definitely a rough diamond in the making, and those expecting a bug-free, well-polished UI with immediately intuitive workflows might be disappointed.”
    • “The game runs smoothly without any major crashes, providing a stable experience that allows players to fully immerse themselves.”
    • “I've experienced very few bugs, and the overall performance is solid, making it easy to enjoy the gameplay without interruptions.”
  • story
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story aspect of the game is criticized for its complete lack of narrative elements, including any plot, character development, or meaningful interactions, resulting in a stagnant and unengaging experience.

    • “There are no game loops, no interaction, no story, no plot, no AI, no progression, no meaningful interaction whatsoever.”
