GB Playbook is an app to assist playing the Guild Ball tabletop game. It's primary focus is on ease of use for model health tracking while playing, and up-to-date access to profile cards.
Guild Ball is a product of Steamforged Games.
GB Playbook is an independent, fan created app.
GB Playbook was created to have a mobile tracking app that would support the Guild Ball Community Project errata and new model releases, and will continue to support future rules updates from Steamforged Games and/or the Guild Ball Community Project.
Since August 2023 GB Playbook is delivered as a mobile-focused web app at guildball.app, replacing older versions distributed through mobile app stores.
GB Playbook can be use directly in a browser at guildball.app, or can be installed for a standalone app experience. It's highly recommended to install on a mobile device, which will enable a full-screen app experience and provide offline access to most functionality and the Guild Ball rulebook PDF.
Most android browsers should offer to install GB Playbook when visiting
guildball.app.
You can also check the browser menu for "Install app" or "Add to Home screen"
options.
GB Playbook is also available in the Google Play store. This is now just a "trusted web activity" launcher around the guildball.app, and is not different then installing from the browser.
Safari does not prompt the user to install web apps, but the following steps can be followed.
- open guildball.app in Safari
- tap the "share" icon
- select "Add to home screen" from the sharing menu
Fire tablets, and other Android devices that do not support installing web apps from the browser, can install GB Playbook from the Google Play store (if you've set that up).
An APK for side-loading is also available on GitHub
- Game Play Tracking
- Profile Card Library
- Profile Card Printing
- Multiple Errata Levels Supported
- Including the latest 4.6 update!
You can contact the author through the GitHub project site, or on the Guild Ball Community Project Discord server in the #playbook-app channel.
