🎭 Step 1 — create your character
Make your character once (name, look, stats, abilities, personality) and every world fits itself around them. In a premade world your character steps into the lead role: your name, stats and abilities stay exactly as you wrote them, and the role adds its powers, relationships and story hooks on top.
Saved characters live in 👤 Profile — quick-select them in any new story, co-op world or dungeon party.
📖 Step 2 — pick a world (or forge one)
Tap any Premade World and the AI writes Episode 1 around you. Or tap ⚡ Quick play, type any idea in a sentence, and the World Forge builds it like a premade: setting, a hidden truth, a full cast of 14 and a season plan.
On your turn, type anything — actions, words, wild ideas. There are no wrong answers. Send an empty message to keep reading, or tap a suggestion: each one is what you do + what you say, and one always moves the story forward.
✨ What you say about yourself is true. Claim a power, a past, a secret — the world reacts to it instead of arguing with it.
Tap 🎨 any time for an illustration of the current scene, or 🎬 for a short anime clip of it with your characters in it.
🎭 Theater mode (🎭 at the top of a story, or the phone's Theater app) turns the story into a voiced visual novel — backdrop, portraits, dialogue box, every character with their own voice. +4 credits a turn. It's in beta: tell the admin in 💬 if something breaks.
💎 Credits
You start with 300 free credits. Every story turn is one flat price by tier: 🥉 Bronze 3 · 🥈 Silver 5 · 🤝 Gold Community 5 · 🥇 Gold 15 · 🔞 Gold 18+ 15 · 👑 Platinum 25 (scene images 6, repeats free). Switch tiers anytime from the story menu ☰ — same story, smarter or cheaper writing.
🎬 Cinematic writing on Gold, Gold 18+ and Platinum: replies read like a novel — narrator voice, callbacks to small details, real scale when something big happens.
🔞 Gold 18+ is our engine built for mature stories with more creative freedom — same 15 credits as Gold, available inside 18+ worlds. If a reply ever reads weird, tell the admin in 💬 and earn bounty credits.
🤝 Gold Community is the long-story tier: 5 credits a turn (1 for subscribers). It's priced like Silver because stories played on it are shared with Meta to improve their models — by using Anime-Tales you accept that (see 📜 Terms & privacy); it's never used in NSFW or co-op stories (an explicit beat in an 18+ story is written on Gold 18+ instead), and everything on other tiers stays private.
🧠 Your story remembers you
Every character keeps their own memories of what you've done together — no re-explaining, ever. Tap a character's face to see their profile, stats, and memories of you.
😲 Characters show their feelings: when someone's mood shifts, their portrait card appears right in the chat — happy, angry, shocked, and more.
📔 Journal & memory (in the ☰ menu) holds story facts, relationship milestones, finished arcs — and in Guided mode, the season plan the AI is steering toward.
🎮 Two ways to play
🧭 Guided — the AI directs a progressing story: a season plan shaped by your genres (pick Action and the fights come early), days that actually end, and a world that makes moves of its own — hooks find you, stakes rise, arcs pay off.
🏝️ Sandbox — total freedom; nothing big happens unless you make it happen.
Power moves: start a message with / to fix or change anything — /Mei has blue hair, /timeskip 3 years — or tap ✏️ to correct the last reply.
👥 Play together
🤝 Co-op worlds — two players write one story side by side.
⚔️ Dungeon Parties — up to 4 players, tabletop d20 rules, real dice rolls. Join a public party or open your own and share the code.
🌐 A-T Social & the community
🌐 Social is the players' corner: post story moments, theories, fan art and 📊 polls on boards like Romance, Isekai, Horror and Theories, ▲ upvote and react with the A-T stickers, and comment. Tap 🌐 Share on any scene picture or clip to post that moment straight from your story. 18+ boards stay behind the 🔞 switch.
👥 Friends, next to the feed in 🌐 Social: search any player by username and tap ➕ Add friend, or pick from People you may know. Friends can message each other and play co-op stories together. Type @ in a post, a comment or the chat to tag a player; they get a 🔔.
🌍 Made by players at the bottom of Home holds the worlds other players built, and 🎭 Characters → 🌍 Community characters holds their characters. Follow the creators you like, and ⭐ Following only shows just theirs.
🔔 The bell holds friend requests, new followers, and likes, comments and reactions on your worlds and posts, plus What's new. 💬 Chat, next to the feed, has the channels and 📢 Announcements.
🎁 Free credits
🗓 Daily check-in: tap Claim in 💎 Credits each day for a flat +75 credits every day. The card keeps count of your streak.
Open 💎 Credits → Rewards: share your invite link (your friend starts with +200 extra and you earn 200 back), and play milestones return credits as you go.
🔞 Mature stories (18+)
Pick the 18+ genre when creating a story for adult storytelling with an all-adult cast — try it with the 🔞 Gold 18+ tier for the most creative freedom. Add NSFW on top of 18+ for explicit adult scenes — it asks you to confirm you are 18 or older and runs only on the Gold 18+ tier. School-setting and all-ages worlds always stay wholesome, whatever the tier.
