Everything Quest Helper does for your story
Three things set Quest Helper apart: quest mechanics as building blocks, a structure that stays simple, and dramaturgy that is built in.
A tour through the app
Every view of Quest Helper, with a demo project.
Your projects on one shelf
Every game gets its own project with a portrait cover (2:3). You find your game at a glance and work on several projects side by side.
Shown with the German interface.
Draw your journey on the map
Place your stations on the map and see the route players take. Below, the journey shows every station as a card with its quest types and the basic needs it serves. The owl on the side points out gaps, for example when a quest type does not appear anywhere in the area.
See the whole flow
Switch to the flow view to read an area like a storyboard: every station with its quests in order, each marked with its quest type and basic needs. Gaps and repetitions stand out.
A library of quest ideas
150 quest ideas, 100 mechanics and 20 step types, each with its own symbol. Search, filter by quest type and drag a card onto a station.
Understand every idea before you use it
Open a card and read what it is, how it plays out and why it works, with the basic needs and the psychological mechanisms it serves. Then add it to your station.
Throw in ideas, place them later
The idea notebook is open in every step. Jot down an idea in a second, press Enter, and later drag it onto a station. Theo reminds you which ideas are still waiting for a place.
Plan every station in detail
The planning sheet of a station: what happens, why the story moves on, the quests with their quest types and needs, and a quest type box that shows what you have used and what is still missing.
3. Dramaturgy built in
Good stories follow an arc. Quest Helper helps you plan it with thesis, antithesis and synthesis: the world as the player knows it, the disturbance that challenges it, and the new state that resolves it.
Players also need to stay motivated. Quest Helper follows the three basic psychological needs of people and shows you where your plan covers them and where it does not.
- ✓Autonomy. Real choices: the order, the path, the solution.
- ✓Competence. A new skill or visible progress.
- ✓Relatedness. Bonds with characters, creatures and places.
The Story Doctor checks while you plan
No more plot holes. Quest Helper points out what tired eyes miss, directly in the plan:
You can mark a gap as intended, with a reason, and Quest Helper stops warning about it.
