Light, Dark or System, saved to your account and carried across browsers and devices. The switch is in App preferences. Also in this update: the collapsed Properties panel shows how many properties are inside, elements without a picture show their type icon instead of a dark tile, and several fixes around deleting nested elements.

Dice became a real part of a world. Roll tables with weights or classic d100 ranges, rich text outcomes, and a library shared across the whole world. Roll buttons sit on Free boards and tumble 3D dice with a per die breakdown. Inline dice chips live in any page and work in the read-only share view, so players can roll while your prep stays put. Saving also got faster: the app now sends only what changed. Full notes: https://app.trailsweaver.com/updates/roll-tables-dice-and-faster-saves External link

Overview

Trails Weaver is a visual worldbuilding app for game masters, worldbuilders and writers. Every character, location, faction and item is a page with rich text, images, custom properties and a relations table, and any page can also be dropped onto a board. There are four board types:
  • an infinite free board where element cards nest inside other element cards.
  • map boards with pins, regions and roads that reveal more detail as you zoom in.
  • hierarchy boards for family trees and chains of command.
  • relationship graph that assembles itself from the relations recorded on each page
Anything marked secret stays hidden when a world is shared through a read-only public link. The free plan covers one world, unlimited free-boards and up to 25 world elements. Pro removes every limit.

Key features

Cards inside cards

Element cards nest inside other element cards on an infinite board. A city holds its districts, a district holds the people who run it.

Notes that think they're pages

Sticky notes on a board carry headings, tables and to-do lists, and connect to each other when the plot does.

Share without spoilers

Send a world through a read-only link. Anything marked secret stays hidden from everyone you share it with.

A graph that draws itself

Record a relation on a page and it shows up in the relationship graph. Filter to one house or faction and the rest falls away.

More than family trees

Map bloodlines, noble houses, guild ranks, pantheons and chains of command. Every tree lays itself out as you add to it.

Maps that open as you zoom

Upload a map, draw roads and regions, drop pins. A country reveals its cities, a city reveals its districts.
