Where Foundry shines

Foundry is a favorite for GMs who love control: a one-time license, your own hosting, rich automation, hundreds of community modules and official system implementations. For long online campaigns, or for a TV-on-the-table setup, it can do almost anything.

Where Rollune shines

Rollune asks for nothing before you play: no license server, no host, no modules. You open it and roll. It's designed for touch, with big targets you can hit one-handed and text readable across the table.

Because it's a phone app, every player can have their own copy, with dice, characters, presets and sound on one screen. Foundry is usually the GM's machine; Rollune is in everyone's pocket, and it works offline by default.

Choose Rollune if…

  • You play in person and want instant tools.
  • You don't want to host or configure anything.
  • Every player should have dice and a sheet on their phone.

Choose Foundry VTT if…

  • You run online campaigns with maps and automation.
  • You enjoy configuring modules and systems.
  • You prefer a one-time purchase and self-hosting.

FAQ

Questions, answered

Still curious? The app's help section and store listing have more.

Does Foundry VTT have a mobile app?

Foundry runs as a desktop application or a self-hosted server that players join from a web browser. There's no dedicated native mobile app; Rollune is built for phones and tablets.

Is Rollune harder or easier to set up?

Easier: install from the App Store or Google Play and start rolling. Foundry requires a license, a host (your computer or a server) and usually system packages and modules.

Can Foundry play ambient sound?

Yes, Foundry has playlists and ambient sound sources on scenes. Rollune's soundboard is simpler: tap layers and effects on your phone, no scene setup needed.
