Well, I'm truly sad as I've just purchased this app.

(Well its the first thing I've brought for ages that didnt have Arkham Horror stamped on it

)
It's got 4 methods of selecting a start player, so I think its really very good for a lot of other things and the price is good too. (Cheaper that the card version)
But I do prefer the munchkin method of selecting a start player then arguing over the decision for 1/2hr then selecting someone else and starting.

Thanks for the heads up about this app existing.
