Some very real user reviews that give a completely objective opinion of DocGoblin

“At last! With DocGoblin, I can access all the rules in my 234 D&D books with a simple search. I tried to get my players to learn the rules, but it’s quicker to do it all myself. After all, they only use the Fireball spell a dozen times a game and don’t remember the damage it inflicts…”

“It’s perfect. I’ve got about 1,632 documents on my laptop and I can only remember two-thirds of them perfectly, so a little help is most welcome. And with the time I save with quick searches, I can sleep 32 minutes at night, which doubles my sleep time!”
