What does a turn cost?
3 Spark, on Free and Pro alike. A turn is one exchange: you write what you do, the world answers. Out-of-character questions to the Narrator are free.
What happens when I run out of Spark?
Your world waits exactly where you left it. Top up with a pack or start Pro, and the move you were about to send is still in the box.
Does Spark expire?
Spark from packs never expires. Pro Spark refills to 1,500 at the start of each billing cycle and does not build up past that. If you have both, Pro Spark is spent first.
Can I cancel Pro anytime?
Yes. Billing is handled by Stripe and you can cancel any time. Pro and its Spark last until the end of the period you paid for, then any unused Pro Spark ends. Spark you bought in packs stays in your wallet.
Is the first world really free?
Yes. Your first built world costs nothing, and every account starts with 150 Spark and one Art Forge credit. No card required.
Who pays in a Shared World?
Each player pays for their own turns from their own Spark. Shared Worlds hold up to 6 players on Free and Pro.
What if a turn fails?
If a turn fails on our side, its Spark is refunded and you can send it again.
What is a Tome?
The story you played, bound as a chaptered book. Tome binding is part of Pro: up to 12 new chapters per cycle, 50 Spark per newly generated chapter, 100 Spark minimum for a fresh Tome.
Your first world
is free.
No card. No commitment. Describe a world in one line and the system builds it.
