I have recently learned that there is a toolkit for the game that so you can use on your iphone to make your life easier. But I do not own an iphone or anything apple related and I was wondering if a similar thing exists that works on Windows so I can use it on my PC.
Arkham Horror Toolkit question
Not yet. The toolkit was released only for I-phones
I heartily reccomend it, but there are some problems with it. We get the same cards in location decks a lot... i think 1/3 encouters at the graveyard deal with "Testifying" Cooter Falwell. And the Woods "A Gate and a Monster appear!" Happens 1/4 times, which makes the woods very dangerous.
Also the Spy from Innsmouth's track is all wrong, and you can't use her as well. And drawing cards with Jim and Gloria is difficult, becuase there is no way to go back to the first card you drew and compare.
But it is very useful, and I'd reccomend it. It saves a lot of table space, to the point where we can play with the base board without having to get out the foldable picnic table.
What were you looking for, exactly? Or were you just looking for ANYthing that makes Arkham easier? Or is it mre of a space issue, since it takes up so little space? You could employ rolling certain dice if you have the oddly-shaped gaming ones, or make a condensed map on photoshop or something...There's a small map available on BGG somewhere, but I'm not sure where it is exactly...
Basically I am looking for anything that will make it easier (By easier meaning easier to play, not win). Space isn't a big matter this far as I have only CotDP and the DH expansions but it will be when I buy more expansions. The main problem is that when I get more expansions it would be annoying to remove the cards of the expansions I will not be playing. Removing them from the decks (or even ignoring them and draw another card when they are drawn) takes time that we could be playing. So a program that does the dirty work for us is welcome.
If Miscatonic Horror solves the dilution problem then I will probably just buy all the expansions and play with all of them without caring. Although the decks will be pretty tall. I will probably buy sleeves too, as the mythos and other world decks are already unshufflable.
I downloaded it from apps store ,they say its ok for the iphone & itouch,but my itouch must be too old ,no good. even updated the software,still no luck.
So whatch out.
