Gamebook Builder | Interactive Fiction Writing App

⚔️ BUILD YOUR ADVENTURE

Instead of juggling a manuscript, spreadsheets, passage numbers, links, print layouts, and ebook files separately, Gamebook Builder brings the whole gamebook workflow into one place.

Write your adventure in logical Draft Order while Gamebook Builder manages the published passage numbers and references behind the scenes.

Once your adventure is ready, use Scramble & Recheck to reorganize published passage numbers while keeping your underlying references connected.
