### 3/5 — Needs work on the Kinks

*2026-08-23*

I like your app, I really do, but the memory is trash. Then everything costs gems. So if the AI forgets something I have to pay gems for it to tell me i’m right, then repeat it back to me, then do the same scene again. Thats the cost of at least three entries. And this isnt counting the number of times Ive had to argue with the AI because its telling me im wrong. The concept is fun and there are times when I am really engaged and having a blast, but half the time Im wasting gems arguing with the A.I and I trying to get into character of the story not waste my gems which I paid to have. If you guys ever fixed this issue id love to comeback

### 4/5 — Wow… this is new

*2026-07-14, version v0.21.1*

All very interesting, one little issue to take a star away, WHY IS THERE A POINT LIMIT!? I hate that a lot, and that’s why I usually go towards AI without it, but they have terrible AI, or Adds show up… and I ain’t spending money!

### 4/5 — Solid App, Big Potential

*2026-07-10*

I’ve been playing campaigns through this app for a long time and have even designed one myself. Overall, it’s a very good app for AI-run campaigns.

What I like is that you can adjust odd decisions or developments in the AI’s response so they don’t end up ruining the whole game. That said, the stories are usually very well written, and depending on the “Gamemaster AI” you choose, you can pick different styles for how you want the story to unfold.

For the sake of convenience, I’d like the option to select the language in the basic settings. This would allow non-native English speakers to interact with the campaign more easily and develop cooler stories long-term than is sometimes possible with simple words. Other than that, features like inventories or more intuitive ways to access the UI still have some potential for improvement.

That’s why it’s “only” 4/5 stars. 
Cool app with a lot of potential still ahead of it.

### 4/5 — Magnifique application, Version Française bientôt dispo ?

*2026-06-28*

L’application est vraiment top, les histoires sont sympathique, la possibilité de faire des histoires totalement custom est un gros +, le point embêtant : pas de version française disponible, possible d’en rajouter une ?

### 2/5 — Memory and stereotyping

*2026-06-26*

If I were to describe the ai, it would be that guy who, no matter how you treat them will keep pushing your buttons until you want to harm them. I have played this for awhile across many different stories. The largest failure the app has is memory. It gives you multiple choices for narrators, with the higher gem count one’s having a better memory. Sadly, the best narrator has only about 30 interactions before it forgets and takes you on a tangent. You can interact with the narrator and get it back on track but it will turn the mistake into an npc error, or just leave the error followed by a new iteration leaving as part of the story. As such it will make the mistake again and again. It has narrator notes and story cards for you to help it, but it often ignores them. It also has canned stereotypes instead of dynamic characters. Examples, a ‘viking’, or a ‘soldier’ will be burly, obtuse and unbathed. A clandestine meeting will always be at the abandoned mill at the edge of town at midnight. Come alone. If there is a character named Arin, he will be the bad guy almost every time. There are scores of these canned plots. Your personality when interacting with the ai often molds it’s personality, like a sociopath trying to blend in, can quickly become retaliatory and petty, or hyper friendly and bountiful.

**Developer response:** Thanks for such a thoughtful review, this kind of feedback really helps. A narrator forgetting after ~30 interactions shouldn't be happening. Please give Vega a try, it's our strongest narrator. If it still drifts, or keeps ignoring your notes and story cards, we'd love to take a look, just send the invitation code to support@fableai.app and we'll see exactly what happened (and we do reimburse gems on confirmed memory bugs).

As for the repetitive characters and plots, a lot of that varies by adventure, with 5,000+ to choose from, some are far more dynamic than others, so another might surprise you. Thanks again for playing and for caring enough to write all this. Happy adventuring!

### 4/5 — Cool game

*2026-05-28, version v0.20.7*

I enjoy how versatile this app is allowing any type of story you can devise.

### 3/5 — It’s ok but….

*2026-05-27, version v0.20.7*

There’s too many instances where the story goes one way and then the AI will act like it never happened and put in its own details overwriting what actually happened or changing the details of what just happened when asked. If it wasn’t for this I’d rate it higher.

### 2/5 — Eh

*2026-05-26, version v0.20.7*

While I enjoy using this app, it has many flaws. It’s memory gets really bad and you have to go in incorrect things. The narrator changes from 1st to 3rd person for no reason and sometimes it just repeats what you say instead of moving to the next section of what would be happening. It’s not as repetitive as other apps, but it is far from perfect. It also keeps asking me every two seconds to write a review like havnt wrote one already

### 4/5 — Extensible

*2026-05-25*

Great tool, subscriptions give it very strong memory.

### 4/5 — Great Accesibillity

*2026-05-22, version v0.20.7*

Love the voice over compatibillity. Although for some reason I sometimes get taken to the top of the screen in the explore tap, presumably because the reckamendations refresh a lot. Could that maybe be a feature in settings? Like a option for either automatic refresh or manual refresh toggle.

### 2/5 — Great game! A few nitpicky things!

*2026-05-20*

Overall, this game is truly one of a kind. This game is simple to use when it works. Well, it is a game that you can accidentally spend hours into and just have plenty of fun. The few things that are areas of improvement is First. The word count is off. And it’s a hit or miss sometimes it’ll say 2000 characters is the limit and I will type out something in a word counter that says 2000 characters will verify it with three other word counters they all roughly put it out about 2000 characters but then you go to put it in this game and it cuts it off halfway. So the word counter needs to be heavily looked into to make sure that if it’s something says 10,000 characters 5000 characters 2000 characters 1500 thousand characters then we can truly hit that. Secondly, the memory issues need to be worked on and I get it’s AI so it’s unpredictable but even after adding story cards and adding notations, it can still very much forget and you will spend some time having to correct the narrator to make sure it’s correct, especially for deeper more complex stories. Third, the lack of being able to upload your own photo. I feel kind of hinder the game I get the generation works, but it almost misses every single time if I put in a detailed character description, it will generate it completely opposite person further from what I’ve visualized further from what is typed, I believe we should have the ability to upload our photos so the AI can see the reference and pull it straight from our photo granted with checks and balances to make sure inappropriate photos aren’t being uploaded. And furthermore, I think that we should have a lot more for our character limit sometimes 10,000 characters just isn’t enough 5000. It’s just not enough. We need a lot of characters if we’re going to be generating stories that are super detailed and creating our own world in universes. But none of these attract heavily from the fact that this is a phenomenal game in my number one used app on my phone and I can easily spend 16+ hours a day even while I’m at work in between my job, checking in doing a quick generation continuing a story. All in all this game is amazing. This app is amazing the devs are amazing. Just a few little things that I think can improve it but overall phenomenal app.

**Developer response:** Thanks so much for the incredible review, hearing it's your #1 app genuinely means a lot to us! Great news on a few of your points: we've fixed the word-count/character limit issue you ran into, so the counters now reflect the real limits, and we've improved memory a lot since you wrote this, so deeper stories should hold together much better now. Your notes on higher character limits and uploading your own reference photos are really thoughtful, and we've passed them along to the team. Thanks again for playing and for taking the time to write all this. Happy adventuring!

### 4/5 — I Love The Game But it’s Need to be Fixed that’s Why I’m Giving It 4 Stars

*2026-05-20, version v0.20.7*

It’s a Good Game But AI Seems to Go off Topic It Takes U back To The Beginning Of The Story Game could be so much greater i actually play this game every day i actually love playing it

### 2/5 — It’s nice but…

*2026-05-11, version v0.20.5*

I find the Gem thing a little stupid. You barely get to send any messages. I’d rather the messages be unlimited and we have to watch ads instead, but other than that this is really entertaining.

### 3/5 — good but could improve

*2026-04-25*

pretty good overall but the ai gets forgetful of the beginning of the story so far in

### 5/5 — Fun for strong imagination with a few few needs

*2026-04-08, version v0.20.3*

Fun to play if you’re big on using imagination, only minor issues I’ve encountered. 1: the AIs need tweaking for exact personalities and natural accents for characters and stick with them always. 2: the limited sentence and paragraph limit there shouldn’t be one that just ruins the fun for the AI.

### 5/5 — Great so far

*2026-04-08, version v0.20.3*

I am having fun and am so far happy

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Pretty lacklustre honestly

*2026-07-13*

The dialogue was pretty unengaging, npc characters would constantly be on your case for every action you take and they’d be on it hardcore. Could never really develop characters and interactions because you’d have a chat with one character and the next moment a second character accuses you of conspiring with someone.

Silver lining. Was pretty cheap so no great loss to try it out and then leave.

**Developer response:** Thanks for your review, and sorry the experience left you cold! From what you're describing, a lot of it likely came down to the specific adventure, we have over 5,000 in the app, and they vary a lot in depth and how well they handle character development, so a different one could give you a completely different experience.

We'd genuinely love for you to give it another shot with a different adventure. Happy adventuring!

### 1/5 — Stop!!

*2026-05-07, version v0.20.5*

stop asking for a review!!!

### 1/5 — Stupid

*2026-04-21, version v0.20.5*

Also why is every add 45-60 seconds

### 1/5 — It’s pretty good but ads don’t load. My purchases aren’t being credited either.

*2026-04-04, version v0.20.1*

There is an option to watch ads in exchange for “gems” but I’ve had maybe 1 out of 10 ads actually load so you’re pretty much forced to wait until the gems are replenished after 8 hours or pay for a subscription option. Update: I paid for more “gems” over 24 hours ago and still haven’t received them.

### 1/5 — So close to being good

*2026-03-10*

Even when using the 30/gem response bots. Never remains consistent. You can spend an hour making a beautiful world and explaining the characters, only for the narrator to forget everything immediately. It’s a complete waste of time. There are far superior versions of this available. All it does is manage to infuriate me as it consistently makes errors, stops narrations 1/2 way through, and argues with me about the plot despite it being incorrect half the time. I’ve had it with this ridiculous bot. Worst LLM I’ve seen in a long time

**Developer response:** We're really sorry to hear this - those issues definitely shouldn't be happening. We'd recommend switching to Azure or Orion as your narrator and making sure to use the built-in memory features, as those tend to give the most consistent experience. If the problems persist, please don't hesitate to contact us so we can help get things sorted!

### 1/5 — Scadente!

*2025-12-06, version v0.17.0*

Anche se scegli di avere spesso delle immagini, te ne generano pochissime… Sarà tirchieria?

### 1/5 — Persistent Server side issues making app unusable

*2025-11-13, version v0.17.0*

Every time I launch the app, I’m stuck on a spinning hourglass until I get the “No Connection” popup. I’m not using a VPN and have already confirmed no issues with connection on my end. 

App is completely unusable with current server issues.

### 1/5 — Disguised scam

*2025-09-27*

New edit: apparently no customer support either doesn’t respond, absolutely just a scam to make you spend money, screw you over and resolve any problems. Deleting app worthless and scummy developers and “support” team 


Edit: new way for them to scam you. I spent money on a subscription the story reintroduced old plot points that already happened and I had to correct the narrator. I asked for it to refund me gems it said it did but just as something in the story not the actual ones i need to actually play the story. This isn’t fair at all. As I said in my first review. Disguised scam. First the awful pacing now going over old stuff and you use need to use gems to correct their game. Have the game end it if there’s nothing left. Completely unfair. Canceling subscription 


I give it 3 stars because the contents alright. But this Is a disguised scam. I purchased the small subscription 2.99 plan. They give you gems which vanish fast. But you go through countless choices keeping you in the same spot of the story unable to progress. You make these countless choices getting you really no where and repeated information all to get you to run through the gems so you’re forced to watched ads or simply pay more. I get it everything’s a business now a days. Nothings free, nothing is for the consumer /player whatever label. Nothing is about having a good time it’s just simply how can we get you to watch ads and spend more money. So nothing is inherently a scam but it’s just disguised because you have to make so many choices that really don’t progress you just so you can buy more. Don’t waste your time. Either be prepared to make couple choices every 10 hours or so, watch countless ads or spend money. If you don’t like to pay don’t waste your time cause you can barely do anything with the free gems. 5 choices max which gets you no where.

**Developer response:** Hello, thank you for sharing your detailed feedback. We’re sorry to hear you felt the experience was frustrating. The pacing vary depending on the adventure you are playing, as some are designed to unfold more slowly. Using the Wordie narrator, which costs 1 gem per interaction, you do receive 100 free messages daily on the free plan, with the option to earn 50 more per ad watched. Additionally, you can influence pacing by adjusting narrator notes or by directly asking the narrator. If you’d like, please reach out to support@fableai.app so we can better understand your experience. Happy adventuring!

### 1/5 — Ads are broken with new update

### 5/5 — Disappointed

*2026-08-04*

The app froze on the opening icon for 4 minutes. So I uninstalled it and reinstalled it only now the safe mode setting is permanently switched on and that trying to verify my age is impossible because there is no camera icon or anything and it’s permanently saying try again but nothing happens when I click on it. Whereas if you’re using the website no problem. Very annoying as I’ve been using the app for nearly a year and now it’s doing this.

**Developer response:** Thanks for your review, and sorry for the trouble, age verification is required by regulations we have to comply with, but the "Try Again" button doing nothing and the missing camera option isn't how it should work. Please email us at support@fableai.app with a screenshot of the issue so we can look into why the verification screen is stuck for you. Happy adventuring!

### 5/5 — Fun

*2026-07-07, version v0.20.8*

Great game

### 5/5 — the BEST Ai RP.

*2026-07-07, version v0.20.8*

Others use premium tokens ONLY. This one has UNLIMITED ADS you can watch if you don’t want to pay. But like 5$ goes A LONG way. So many cool RP’s. No filters and fan made campaigns and narrator for in-depth content. Seriously the best on the market.

### 5/5 — Terrible three stars

*2026-07-05, version v0.20.8*

It has no good story’s and is more of a dnd type thing also it’s only three stars but it makes you put five

### 5/5 — So so good omg

*2026-06-21*

When I was a little girl, I would write little stories, having now an app that allows you to do it but even to complete and add some great ideas …. This is the best game ever, thanks guys !! 
(Just one thing 200gems for quasar is a bit much, 100 I would understand, even more that I have a subscription so you should make Quasar less expensive for subscribers in my opinion)

### 5/5 — Solid

*2026-05-14, version v0.20.5*

Solid gem of an app. If comments were added for stories that would sell it sky high.

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2026-05-06, version v0.20.5*

I never leave reviews, but this game leaves me speechless. It is great and the developers did such an amazing job. I am addicted.

### 5/5 — People in the stories don’t remember anything

*2026-04-25*

This app started out good. But then all the people in my story started forgetting everything and it completely changed my story. I would be doing something one day with the same person then I would talk to them the next day and they would have no knowledge of it happening or the events would be completely different. Lame app

**Developer response:** Thanks for your review! That shouldn't be happening at all. We'd recommend using narrator notes alongside Azure as your narrator, that combination should fully resolve the continuity issues. If you've tried both and it's still happening, contact support@fableai.app and we'll dig in.

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2026-04-23, version v0.20.5*

Love the ability to create my own stories

### 5/5 — Just what I was looking for

*2026-04-18, version v0.20.4*

I don’t have alot to say it’s seems to me a good use of ai and a mix of roleplay
