Released on February 15, 2026

This one has been cooking for a while. The community asked for a way to jot down notes mid-session without leaving the adventure log — so now you can. Narrative Log Entries let you write free-form Markdown notes right alongside your fate rolls and scene events. That was the starting point, but the rest of the release grew from there: four new Crafter table packs with cascade linking, achievements on iOS and Android, a redesigned Fate Chart on mobile, and a bunch of fixes players flagged in Discord.

Highlights

  • Narrative Log Entries: Add free-form notes with Markdown support directly to your Adventure Log.
  • Adventure Crafter & Location Crafter Tables: Two new table packs with cascade linking — rolling on Random Themes automatically rolls on the matching Plot Points table.
  • Creature Crafter Tables: 30 tables for generating creatures on the fly — potency, size, classification, 10 creature description types, and abilities with interactive chain-rolling across 15 sub-tables.
  • Event Crafter Tables: 10 new tables including Map Elements (100 keywords for building Mythic Maps, from Mythic Magazine #62), Fantasy Treasure, Mercenary Missions, and Quest Waypoints.
  • Updated Fate Chart (mobile): Polished portrait layout with cosmic nebula Roll Fate button and left-handed mode; redesigned landscape layouts for Fate Chart and Meaning Tables.
  • Deep Search: Search meaning table metadata (descriptions, categories, tags) with a new toggle in Settings.
  • Achievements (iOS/macOS/Android): Unlock achievements on Apple Game Center and Google Play Games as you play — fate outcomes, random events, scene milestones, and more.
  • Journal Backup Restore: View and restore journal backups directly from the journal list — see timestamps, file sizes, and restore with a single tap.
  • Android: Edge-to-edge display, predictive back gestures, and native Material transitions.
  • Scene Copy/Export: Copy a single scene or all scenes to clipboard for sharing with LLMs or note-taking apps.
  • Unlock Window: See your 12-month unlock countdown directly in the Premium Features view.

Added

  • Narrative Log Entries: Tap the + button in the adventure log header to write a free-form note (up to 512 characters, with Markdown support) that gets added as a “Narrative” entry. Available on mobile, tablet, and desktop.
  • Adventure Crafter Tables: Random Themes, Plot Point Theme, Meta Plot Points, and 5 theme-specific Plot Points tables with cascade linking so rolling on Random Themes automatically rolls on the matching Plot Points table.
  • Location Crafter Tables: Special Elements, Simple Question Odds, and Complex Question tables for Descriptions and Actions.
  • Creature Crafter Tables: 30 tables for generating creatures — 4 core mechanic tables (Potency, Number of Creatures, Size, Classification), 10 creature description tables, 1 main Ability table, and 15 ability sub-tables with interactive chain-rolling via linked rolls.
  • Event Crafter Tables: 10 tables for adventure generation — Special Elements, Event Elements (Concluding and Non-Concluding), Map Elements (100 keywords for building Mythic Maps, from Mythic Magazine #62), Fantasy Treasure (Minor & Major), Mercenary Missions (Objective, Reward, Twist), and Quest Waypoints (Challenge, Goal).
  • Deep Search: New toggle in Settings to search meaning table metadata (descriptions, categories, and tags). When enabled, the tags filter panel also filters available tags based on the search query.
  • Scene Copy/Export: Copy a single scene or all scenes to clipboard for easy sharing with LLMs or note-taking apps.
  • Journal Backup Restore: Tap the overflow menu (⋮) on any journal to view available .bak.1/.bak.2 backups with locale-aware timestamps and file sizes, or restore from any .json/.bak file on disk. Includes confirmation dialog and success/error feedback.
  • Achievements (iOS/macOS/Android): Apple Game Center (iOS/macOS) and Google Play Games (Android) achievements — unlocks and incremental progress tracked for fate outcomes, random events, scene interrupts, scene milestones, and log entry milestones.
  • Unlock Window: See your 12-month unlock countdown directly in the Premium Features view.
  • Focus Mode (mobile): Hides images on mobile for a distraction-free experience.
  • Long-Press Odds (tablet/desktop): Long-press odds buttons to quickly view target numbers.

Changed

  • Fate Chart (Portrait, mobile): Polished layout — odds wheel and action buttons now sit in a 3:1 row (wheel left, buttons right), with left-handed mode swapping sides. Roll Fate button features a cosmic nebula background with pulsing glow animation; Random Event button uses subdued styling for clear visual hierarchy.
  • Fate Chart (Landscape, mobile): Redesigned as a 2-column view — game log on the left, controls on the right — replacing the previous 3-column layout.
  • Meaning Tables (Landscape, mobile): Redesigned as a 2-column view — search and table list on the left, permanent results panel on the right — replacing the draggable bottom sheet.
  • Android Edge-to-Edge (Android): Migrated from immersive-sticky fullscreen to modern edge-to-edge display with transparent system bars. Status bar and navigation bar now overlay content seamlessly (ahead of Android 16 enforcement).
  • Android Predictive Back (Android): Native predictive back gestures with in-app route transition animations. Android now uses its native platform behavior for page transitions, scroll physics, and back gestures.
  • iCloud Sync (iOS/macOS): Replaced per-file sync status with an aggregate state machine that tracks all three repos and emits a single consolidated status — eliminates UI thrashing from rapid per-file cycles. Deferred table migration until after cloud repo is attached. Downgraded verbose per-file logs.
  • Clipboard Copy: Extracted shared copy utility for consistent error handling and screen-reader announcements across the app.
  • Adventure Log: Consolidated diverging copy-text builders into a single method, ensuring copy text and screen-reader announcements always match what’s displayed.
  • Memoized Markdown: Scene Markdown rendering is now memoized for smoother scrolling.
  • Performance: Reduced freezes/hangs by deferring heavy table work and improving on-demand loading. Consistent loading spinners for Event Focus and Adventure Log.
  • iCloud Migrations (iOS/macOS): Now use coordinated upload/download operations when moving data into or out of iCloud storage.
  • Dice Roller: Renamed “Mobile Dice Roller” panel title to “Dice Roller” for consistency.

Fixed

  • iCloud Sync Status (iOS/macOS): Fixed Settings sync status showing “Available” instead of “Synced”.
  • Copy Button: Fixed visual feedback (green checkmark) not appearing after copying.
  • Category Icons: Fixed built-in category icon customization not reliably updating.
  • Purchase Restore: Added automatic purchase restoration on first launch after reinstall so returning users don’t need to manually find “Restore Purchases”.
  • Adventure Log (Colons): Fixed Meaning Table entries with colons in the table name rendering incorrectly.
  • Adventure Log (Copy Text): Fixed copy/accessibility text for Scene Check entries — roll type was incorrectly shown as “Random Event”, and embedded random event details were missing.
  • Adventure Log (Double-Submit): Fixed a race condition on the narrative entry bottom sheet where rapid taps could create duplicate entries.
  • Windows: Fixed “More Settings” button in panel settings closing the dialog without navigating to the full settings screen.
  • Adventure Crafter: Fixed Plot Points tables to match the source material wording and ensured META results roll on the Meta Plot Points Table.
  • iPad Sharing (iPad): Fixed export/share failures caused by missing share origin.
  • Undo: Fixed a crash when tapping the Undo SnackBar action after deleting a scene.
  • Cloud Sync (iOS/macOS): Malformed filenames/paths no longer crash the app.
  • Event Focus Import: Invalid/malformed files are now treated as user-facing validation errors (not crashes).
  • Journal Import: Invalid file types/invalid JSON handled as user-facing validation.
  • Dice Roller Import: Saved formulas import now handles cancellation/invalid files gracefully.
  • Journals: Eliminated duplicate storage call when loading journals.
  • Tables: Fixed crash on table copy progress screen.
  • General stability and performance improvements.
