What RPG Story Toolkit is
RPG Story Toolkit combines writing, structured world data, timelines, maps, wiki publishing, and exports in a workspace for game developers, game masters, writers, and worldbuilders. Its rich-text editor can link mentions to database records, with links updating when a record is renamed. Users can define tables and fields for characters, items, locations, calendars, and other records. Timelines can be ordered or shown in a Gantt-style view, while maps support uploaded images, pins, and drawn regions.
The web app can publish documents and records as a browsable wiki at its own address, with project updates republished. Documents, tables, and conditions can be exported to JSON, CSV, TSV, Markdown, plain text, DOCX, or a ZIP bundle. The Mac desktop app stores projects as local Markdown, JSON, and asset files and works fully offline. Automatic desktop-to-web sync requires Pro. The site demonstrates JSON-based workflows for Godot, Unity, Unreal, and GameMaker. The browser app and Mac desktop download are available; the Windows desktop app is marked as coming soon. Web Free is $0 and limits users to one project, three documents, and three image uploads; Pro costs $5 a month.
