EpicWin App Reviews

This isnt my go-to task management app but its really promising to see the work thats still being put into it. The bug that affected me in the previous version is gone, as recurring tasks seem to work correctly now. Still hoping for more functional task management, such as a calendar view but for many people theres already enough here to get things done.

Heres the good: • its pretty and inspiring • issues with reoccurring tasks fixed. • it seems to work well now. Bad: • the calendar picker needs to be a calendar, or have the day of the week. • single user only. Would be nice if my family could play on one machine. • Could use a push reminder to tell you when tasks are ready to be crushed!

I love this app, it makes life more fun and rewarding, who doesnt want to earn 200 strength for taking out the compost? Only issue is that daily quests seem to get out of order if you dont do them. Other than that I love it!

HOLY CRAP, an app that turns my daily life into an RPG? Im sold. Cant wait to see what else gets implemented in the future, as the app does feel a little bit shallow... PS, writing this review got me 300 epic points. Score!

A great app, adds just a tiny bit of motivation to get things done. Looking forward to future updates.

Very organized!! I am much more motivated to get my stuff done.

This app motivates me to do stuff I dont want to do like clean my room and stuff and this just got me 300 points :)

Needs reminders like "incoming task: " and task times as well. Sync with to do lists would be great with a default value of 50 possibly. Wish that they would update with these.

Very unique and fun idea. Worth a try for anyone who needs a little help with keeping up with tasks. Some improvement that I would love to see: the option of picking a date from a calendar when creating task/quest. It is much easier to keep track of your schedule when you see the actual day of the week instead of just the date number. Also, some kind of push reminder for the tasks that remain for the day would be great too. Maybe three per day: morning, noon, and early evening. Thanks for the great app and keep up the good work!

The developers directly responded to my email and even implemented one of my suggestions regarding repeating tasks! Thanks so much!

This app is great for helping people who waste too much time on useless RPGs to actually doing something with their lives! It really helps motivate you on things that you should do, but dont normally get around to. I do agree that you could improve the tasks with a calendar, time, and push notifications though. Also, it would be great if you could set the leveling time so that those people who just complain about how long it takes would shut up and people like me could actually make it longer... Overall this is a great app with still a lot of room for improvement!

The rpg element for a todo app is genius. I use this baby everyday and it truly makes makes me more productive than the other todo apps I have tried. I only wish you could link up your character from the iPhone to the iPad. I know you can sync your tasks online but I havent figured out how to transfer my character to my iPad. That would be an awesome fix. I like the animations for completing a task but monsters or a boss would be a great add-on. Great job so far though. I think this could turn out to be an awesome app down the road. Good start though.

Fun! Id like to see the attribute, uhh, say acumen, or say Merchant lore... Something denoting financial health. It could use many new features; I hope future updates will bring gifts. Just please get rid of the embarrassing EPIC WIN!! audio at startup.

Leveling up is very long. This is not a rpg, we cant do anything with what we collect. This app would be awesome if our skills were actuakly useful to beat a monster or something........... Do not get the app.

Really gives me another reason to get my chores done. Only improvements would be more avatars, character customization, a price reduction and a few other misc. things... Overall quite good!

I dont like buying applications often; Id rather buy myself a drink than waste money on something that will likely just collect virtual dust. However, supermono ought to be very proud of themselves. Theyve created an app that actually makes the quotidian drudge almost tolerable. This iteration (1.4) goes a long way to address the shortcomings in event repetition, and now its a joy to use to plan out your schedule and your goals on a longer-term or repetitive basis. This means, for instance, that I can set a task to be completed every second Friday, or set a task to recur every weekday. That is huge. Ive had this app since it came out, but I really feel like the value has shot up through the roof. Id probably pay close to $5 for this, and more once syncing to and from iCal becomes a reality. The micro-rewards are fantastic, and if you find yourself as weak of will as I am, youll appreciate this application. I use it to track and manage my vices; I give myself 50xp if I make it through the day without drinking a sugary drink, or 50xp if I pack and eat my own lunch instead of going out. Its not quite the gratification of a hot, greasy meal, but for someone of my uniquely poor mental constitution, its an acceptable replacement. In short, dont buy yourself a drink; buy this app, even if you dont normally buy apps. Heck, use the app to wean yourself off the sugary stuff. Support this developer, though: this is something unique in a sea of cruft, and supermono ought to be encouraged.

Im really enjoying this app so far and can see that as the developers add on to it in future updates, this app has the potential to be my number one favorite on the iPhone. At the moment, however, what I would really like is some work on the Calendar syncing. When I previously attempted it a list of my reminders from previous months would pop up as overdue and would not stay deleted. Every time I reopened the Epicwin app it would sync and have them reappear. Another few things Id really appreciate is an online account - that way I could sync my progress and to do list between my phone and PC. I would also really appreciate more character customization - different faces would be great with a future goal of changeable facial features would be amazing. I do understand that to develop an app like this one needs funding, but being charged for avatars really feels like a ripoff after paying 3.00 for the initial app. As I cant think of other ways to go about making profit from this, however (you can easily cheat for gold an XP so I can see thats not an option), its very forgivable. Ultimately, as I said, I am very pleased to see that the developers are working so hard to frequently update this app and improve it, but in its current state the app is not worth 2.99 and there is no point in purchasing it until more features are added; the gold and loot are unusable and can easily be obtained in the future by cheating. If you really want an app for experience, just get level me up - it measures in time spent on a task so you dont have to fret about how many points anything is worth.

Definitely a great app! But it does need work. For starters the syncing is decent but does need work. As well an in app calendar showing all you task and such on the calendar would be awesome! Folders or colour coding tasks would be great too. This does bring in some fun to doing daily tasks! I do recommend! I hope more content is available in the future as well

A great concept for a to-do app. I find myself looking for tasks to complete so I can check them off in good faith, which tells me its struck a good balance between productivity and incentive. Hopefully, future versions will include some kind of battles and enemy encounters to get excited about -- Id love to see my character put those experience points to good use. More character customization / RPG elements would make this way better. Magic spells and visible equipment changes, for example. Hopefully thats where the developers are headed, because it would make this app irresistible. I suggest buying it with this in mind -- higher sales will drive the development of in-depth gameplay.

Worth the purchase.
