Questions

What is an AI text adventure?

A text-based game where an AI narrator writes the story as you play. You read a scene, then pick one of three choices or type anything you want to do, and the narrator responds. Nothing is pre-written, so no two games go the same way.

Is Quillroll free?

Yes. You get 10 free turns a day without an account and 20 a day when you sign in. Pro gives you 3,000 turns a month for $7.99. The generators are free.

Is it like a text-based RPG or choose your own adventure game?

Both. Each turn offers three choices like a choose-your-own-adventure book, but you can also type your own action like a classic text adventure. The game tracks your health and what you carry.

Is it safe for teens?

Stories stay PG-13: adventure, mystery and peril, but no sexual content and no graphic gore. Quillroll is for players 13 and older.

Can I play in another language?

Yes. Type your actions in Spanish, Portuguese, French, German, Japanese or most other languages and the narrator answers in the same language. The generators have a language menu too. The site's buttons and pages are in English for now.

Can I keep playing later?

Yes. Every adventure is saved under My adventures. Sign in to keep them in your account and continue on any device.
