About

Features
Read full description

DungeonForge is the Dungeon Master's co-pilot for 5e-compatible tabletop games. It turns the notes you already have — party backstories, last session's cliffhanger, your world doc — into encounters that feel like they were written for YOUR table. Not random tables. Not generic filler. Every encounter is built around your specific campaign: the rogue who betrayed the smugglers' guild, the cleric losing his faith, the villain funding it all from the shadows. Paste your notes once and DungeonForge remembers your party — then every encounter ties back to it. WHAT YOU GET, EVERY TIME • Drop-in read-aloud boxed text you can narrate on the spot • Enemies with campaign-tied motivations and CR-scaled stat blocks for a fifth-edition ruleset • Concrete tactics — how they fight, when they flee, what they want • A clear "why this fits your campaign" tie-in to a PC's backstory or an open plot thread • Rewards and complications that seed your next session HOW IT WORKS 1. Make a campaign — paste your notes and let it build a party profile (name, setting, level, backstories, party dynamics, open threads). 2. Pick an encounter type (combat, social, exploration) and difficulty. 3. Forge it. Read it at the table. Save it to your campaign library. BUILT FOR REAL PREP • The prep barrier, gone — a session's worth of on-theme encounters in minutes, not hours. • Multiple campaigns, each with its own party and memory. • Your campaigns live on your device. Try it free — forge your first few encounters on your own party and see the difference. Subscribe for unlimited encounters across all your campaigns. DungeonForge is an independent tool for 5e-compatible tabletop roleplaying.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: MapaSpot at none against DungeonForge's 2. MapaSpot also leads on iOS requirement (12.0 vs 16.4). DungeonForge's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
