Description from Steam STEAM
About This Game Gather your friends (or just yourself) and step into a world without a script. Skaldsong is a multiplayer RPG platform that combines the deep mechanics of classic CRPGs with the narrative freedom of tabletop role-playing. Here, the story is not pre-written. It's generated live, guided either by a human Game Master using our toolset, or by an advanced generative AI that acts as your Game Master. There is daily free AI Usage for everyone! Stuck as a forever DM? Lacking friends but want to play a TTRPG? Have friends but nobody wants to be the one to run the game? Just want to see what AI can do? Then this game is for you. A True RPG Engine Skaldsong is not another hastily thrown together AI chatbot. It is a complete game engine with robust, underlying systems that feel like a modern evolution of classic MUDs (Multi-User Dungeons). The AI's role is not to solely run the game, but to create content for it. You are not limited to pure adventure games, using custom Game Rules, you can play all sorts of games- Slice of Life school romance? The management of a mercenary company? Fight in the gladiator pits? Interstellar Empire management? With the right ruleset, the AI can smoothly run about any game you can define. When the AI responds to your actions, its narrative is embedded with special [Tags] . Our custom parser reads these tags and translates them into mechanical changes within the game state. If the AI describes you finding a sword, a [Create_Item] tag mechanically adds that sword to your inventory. This system ensures that the story and the game mechanics are always perfectly in sync. While the interaction is text-based, the world is fully visualized. You are not just reading text; you are interacting with graphical character sheets, inventory windows, a world map, quest logs, and more. I'm tired of hastily put together AI games that look like, frankly, dogwater. Skaldsong is a demonstration of how you can truly use AI not to replace the game, but enhance it. Free-to-Play and Paid Content Skaldsong is free to download and play. The core software, including the multiplayer framework and all non-AI GM tools, is available to everyone at no cost, meaning if you join a friend or public lobby, you will have to pay nothing to play with them. Additionally, every player gets 40 free actions/generations using our subscription model for free per day. If you want unlimited usage of the subscription model, there is a $15 subscription for 30 days of unlimited usage available for purchase in-game or a higher tier $25 subscription which includes image generation. But to use the premium models and image generation, these all use credits which can be purchased through Steam. Credits are spent as used. The cost of AI features (outside Unlimited usage) depends on factors such as the size of your game world, how many characters are in your game, and various other settings you can tweak to meet your cost threshold. Tips on managing cost and other helpful information can be found on the Skaldsong Discord. The AI as a Creative Partner When you play with the AI GM, you just tell it what genre, setting, and type of game you'd like to play. Guided by those, the AI's responsibilities include: Reactive Storytelling: Generating narrative outcomes, NPC dialogue, and environmental descriptions based on your party's specific actions. On-Demand Content: Creating new characters, items, quests, and locations as the story demands them. AI-Powered Art: Generating images based on your characters and locations. Generally, if a character is wearing something, the image will show it. If you see an object in a scene? You can interact with it. Create character portraits, item icons, and stunning location art on the fly. These assets are then automatically shared with all connected players, bringing your shared world to life visually. You can select from a list of pre-written art styles or create your own. Built-In Text-to-Speech with Custom Voices: If your computer can handle it, you can use our built-in TTS system to generate voice overs for your game using custom voices. You can use one of the preset ones or add your own! Seamless Multiplayer & Asset Sharing Built on Steamworks, Skaldsong is designed for a hassle-free multiplayer experience. The host controls the world, and clients connect to share in the adventure. Our system automatically synchronizes all necessary game assets, including any AI-generated images or custom music tracks the host chooses to use. When using the AI, only the lobby host needs to have credits. If you're playing as a player, there is absolutely no cost associated with AI usage. A UI That Does Not Make You Puke Designed to work with all your information being in windows you can scale, resize, and reposition. Use one of the pre-built color themes or make your own. Use a custom background or let the game set the background based on the location your party is in. Change to a favored font even. You can even drag 'stickers' of your characters and items onto the screen to place them directly in the location as you play. But the most important thing, is that the UI won't make you want to puke! A Powerful Tool for Human Game Masters The AI is completely optional. Skaldsong can be used as a powerful platform for running your own TTRPG campaigns with friends. As a human GM, you can ignore the AI entirely and use the game's systems to: Track character stats, health, and inventories for all players. Manage a world map with custom locations. Create and assign quests through the built-in quest log. Distribute loot and currency mechanically. Keep a persistent, savable record of your campaign world. Play included or custom music or other .mp3s to all of your players at once Future tools (Battlemap) in the roadmap
