Overview / What Is TaleSpire?
TaleSpire is a beautiful way to play pen and paper RPGs online. Bring your stories to life and embark upon campaigns together with your friends, regardless of where you are in the world.
With Talespire, the beauty and physicality of tabletop gaming meet the endless possibilities of a digital world. Here you can collaboratively build your worlds without compromising the handcrafted aesthetic of using traditional miniatures.
As a player, you can take on the mantle of multiple heroes and creatures, manage your stats, and express yourself using the growing emote system. Perform dice rolls directly on the board and interact with your environment — at least, as far as your GM will let you!
As a GM, you can dazzle and thrill your friends by building expansive maps, setting up shots, and controlling immersive soundscapes to bring all your delightful and devious designs to life.
TaleSpire is not tied to a specific game or ruleset. Whether you’re running a one-shot or a sprawling campaign, if it's on a square grid then we have your back. We are now in Early Access, so now is your chance to raise up your sword, rally your friends, and take your next adventure online with us.
Building and play are one
Setting the stage for your story takes no time at all with Talespire, but even if you forget to prep, it can all be added in while you play. Want to destroy a wall to reveal a secret passage? Do it! Want to rain down piles of gold from the heavens? You have the power. At any moment during your adventure, you (or multiple GMs) can jump into building mode and change the world without interrupting anything else. Our persistent online boards can be created at a moment’s notice, and everything is synchronized in real-time as you dice-roll your way to glory.
A slew of tools to help you on your adventures
It’s dangerous to go alone, but luckily we have a bunch of tools that can help, and all are as pleasing as they are useful. Beautiful dice, rulers and area markers, a range of emotes, and special modes for turn-based combat and cinematic sequences are at your disposal.
A growing library of assets
Pick from a plethora of pieces to create your scenes! The current roster stands at 280 miniatures, 2100 tiles and props, and 60 unique audio tracks. Our library is ever-expanding; we produce fresh asset packs every month.
Share your creations
TaleSpire boards are designed to be easily shared, whether with friends or with the wider community on sites like TalesBazaar or TalesTavern. You can copy sections of your boards (slabs) and paste them as text outside of TaleSpire. Simply paste the text back into TaleSpire to summon the slab to your hand.
This tale has only just begun
Being in Early Access we still have plenty of adventures ahead of us. We have an active Discord community, which you can find in the social section, and alongside your feedback we’re looking forward to developing the game’s features. So come, journey with us a while.

Good visuals if you put in the effort!
It's very good for table top games highly recommend
great game, Playing in person is still better but this is a close second, and it constantly gets updated with new assets and features
Great for playing with friends and great for sketching map layouts for anything.
As a 3DVTT it dose have a bit of a steep learning curve that might turn a few people away. But if you stick with it, the reword will be more than worth the time to learn.
If you're a DM or an aspiring DM, this is a great tool! even for just coming up with your narrative, it's almost like storyboarding. Brilliant! needs more assets but i'm sure everyone is saying that. Even the Mod IO scene needs some things no one seems to be thinking of; signage, other creatures/characters, more depth in the assets. but still....Brilliant!!!!
Decent VTT. Pretty fun for big set-piece scenes.
Even for early access, It's packed full of features and is a great experience for both the Dungeon Master & the Players. I was able to teach my player's the VTT in one 10 minute session and they had the hang of it. I do wish there comes more support for systems such as Cyberpunk Red, but for D&D, you will have a breeze playing your campaign or pre-mades. Speaking of premades, the community has made maps for some of the well known campaigns and one shots. I would 100% recommend
I decided to return to this game after two or three years, only to find that it requires an internet connection just to access the main menu. Since this leads to an endless loading screen with no way around it, I can't recommend it.
I'm a pretty avid 3D modeler and this game is like a lucid dream, just dropping assets down and optimizing block counts to achieve amazing results in such a small time, I built an entire kingdom wall complete with towers in just 4 hours. The houses are a learning curve though!
I've been running a weekly Pathfinder 2e campaign for nearly a year now. We play online exclusively through Talespire. Program is easy to use with a great community that constantly provides premade models and maps. I also import a lot of models from Heroforge and the two programs work well together. I believe at the the time of this review you need an internet connection in order to use the software. I am hoping that in the future I will be able to use the program offline.
This was fantastic to run Curse of Strahd in! My players were blown away and I loved using this to do great things.
I've used the guest edition for the first campaign I've ever been a part of. Can say that it has been wholly fantastic getting the opportunity to try this TT sim with the invitation of my DM to use one of his empty seats before pulling the trigger to buy this. If somebody new to the game can get used to this, that's proof enough that it's easy to try.
It can still be a little buggy at times; however, the community building tab is a great starting point for building boards (maps). Also, once you learn the controls, building and setting up NPCs becomes much easier! There are a lot of great tutorial videos and notes that help a bunch! Overall this has been well worth it to use for online DnD and is the reason I've reconsidered GMing games online!
Honestly, I had so much Fun playing Talespire.
It is probably one of the best way to get your friends playing for the first time in a TTRPG.
Good simulator for games like Cyberpunk or D&D, although I'll admit I'll always prefer 2d things like FoundryVTT
Love love love this, it works really well as a virtual tabletop for dnd games
I really cant say enough good things about TaleSpire. Been running a game in TaleSpire for two years now and cant imagine switching back to a traditional tabletop. The tools that it gives you an unrivaled. On the fly, I can destroy floors, add furniture, or cause floods. But if I take a little more time in prep you can prepare some incredible set pieces with hide volumes, morphs, mods, and more.
The HeroForge integration is INCREDIBLE. Being able to have exactly my players vision in the game for a few extra bucks is awesome. And when I need a crazy monster, the mods panel often has exactly what I need, but if not then I have HeroForge to make that perfect Big Bad.
At first I was worried that not having integrated game system support for character sheets would be an issue. But the reality is, it has made my players MORE engaged. They spend less time fiddling with drop-downs and blocking their screen with character sheets. Some use their phone or tablet and some use printed sheets, but all of them stay focused on the Talespire action.
Bought it, walked away, came back over year later and OH MY GOD! This is brilliant! It's the best thing to happen to on line table top since the invention of the internet! It's everything I've ever wanted from a program like this and more.
No more will I do top down nonsense, now it will be 3D table top dominance! The players will manage their characters on their own, like they should. No help with the maths, no automatic addition of bonuses to the rolls. Figure that stuff out yourself like and adult! I love it! Yes! MORE!
The fact you can add 'seats' and have people download a free version of the game to join is worth the nominal fee to buy the seats. It is a business after all, and if we want more content, which we do, then they need to make money, which they fully deserve.
If I could add one thing it would be an AOE spell effect animation, like a bolt of energy that fills a space at the target with more energy, or whatever. That is the only thing missing for me.
5 big stars. Love it! Need more! Haven't been this excited to run a D&D game since finding Roll20.
Keep up the good work you amazing people!
Really great addition for your Dungeons and Dragons games if you want a 3D view of your battlemaps but cant afford a ton of minis and other props. We use it for live games and just let everyone watch on a pc screen.
The graphics are fantastic and the options, also with the added community contet for minis, are almost limitless. In addition there are great websites from which you can get prebuilt maps for your campaign.
Great place to play together, and also some times create maps.
The UI scheme is kind of weird, but that's a minor inconvenience overall.
i have 40 hours of this building maps, 3 of them using em
This is a perfect tool for any kind of RP, or even to just get your building-urges out of your system (which is where I have spent most of my played hours) - it's versatile and extremely fun, a little bit complicated when you're just starting out but after a few minutes, it's really easy to play with.
Theater of the mind is great, but there's also fun to be had in having detailed battle maps where your minis can move around. TaleSpire accomodates that and then some.
Talespire is an inspirational project which allows Game Masters to build 3D maps and guide their players through an atmospheric gaming experience. Talespire is still in the works, but it is an incredible product already. This program takes visual storytelling to a new level. You will not regret it!
While going up stairs and down stairs can be a challenge, the overall game gives you the ability to have a D&D Experience like no other. I would also go as far as to say you could probably also play other home brewed rpgs or things like white wolf with it.
It is easy to use from a player point of view and from a GM point of view the large library of community made maps ensures there is always something you can use for your sessions in a pinch. The ability to just plop down any figures you want at any time is incredibly nice and it isn't bound to any TTRPG system so you can use it to do any amount of homebrew shenanigans in your game.
Great beta, look forward to see how it grows.
My most-played game on Steam, because it enables us to virtually play miniature wargames in wonderful, customizable maps with fantastic models.
(Legit advice to devs at bottom)
ok, so unless you're getting paid to DM or have WAY too much time on your hands, as legitimately good looking as it is don't bother, everything is very rigid and of course blocky, it can look amazing, it's just the sheer amount of time needed to make your maps look good is far too unreasonable given how it controls (controls aren't bad, you just have to place and carve the details yourself in a very rigid blocky way) and the fact that realistically you're not going to be spending that much time in any one given location to warrant the overwhelming effort, as a DM I just don't have the time to work around the restrictions, but funny enough if it controlled like an old school level editor like say the OG halo reach forge then it would probably be perfect as you could just free form clip things into each other at a fast and simple pace without having to faf around. Sadly if there is a way to make it work like this I certainly could't find it.
Bare in mind for me this is competing with simply screen sharing Krita over discord and just drawing out a top down map in real time as we play (I may even do a grid overlay to cover all the bases soon), and that feels like the big take away for this, it take a LOT of time to get the most out of the look and unless you make money off your games or stream them, as a DM I just can't justify using it when the method I already use not only works but can be added to literally while playing the game effectively making the map prep time literally non existent.
LEGIT SUGGESTION BELOW
the more I thought about it and provided their isn't a way to do it that I couldn't find, legit just use the methods that the old halo forge tools did, hell you can even make them controller compatible cause the more I dig into this the only thing the forge didn't have was a group select copy/past, in hindsight I'd actually say it may be the perfect user friendly way to make maps in 3d space. I'm being very serious here, just make a legally distinct way to float around the map and drop the assets the same way and this would actually be perfect for any and every one to use.
An amazing tool for DM's and players alike, awesome for combat and world building, with an unique and captivating art style to pair.
Its a great way to play DND online with your friends. You can add your own miniatures from Heroforge for example and its such a great app. There is also many pre-made maps so you dont even have to create from 0 all the campaign that you are playing. So in general I would really recommend you to trie this if you playing DND online. :)
Not bad, but there is no enough options for interaction with playing space, like in Tabletop Sim.
IMHO.
Amazing software for building fantasy worlds and scenes. I'm a 25+ year DM and endorse this! A++
While it does require the investment of buying a mini (or the electronic version of 1), the platform is pretty sound. You can move your camera, though you cannot lock it to follow your mini. The lighting is nice. There is still a lot more work to be done to it, but so far, from my use of it for my 5e game... it is quite enjoyable.
Great way to build with an easy to use interface. While i prefer 2D this is a good 3D VTT.
Simply put: Talespire is a highly in-depth world building tool that also allows you to play multiple table-tops inside it with your players.
More complexly: Talespire has customization nand versitility unlike some things you've likely seen prior. it is well beloved by many people, and for very good reason. It it is one of, if not the best, tool out there to use when it comes to a good 3D representation. Some of the features include:
-Water, which can come in shaped blocks, or can be raised from the bottom, which helps visualize a flood.
-Heroforge Incorporation, for when you or your players decide they want to build a custom model.
-Community model and structure integration, through a tab within the game itself. this means things like themberchaud, far more ghost models, and many more are available through the community, as well as the capability to request artists/commission artists to make specific models.
-multiple visibility helping tools, and accessibility tools. Best used when structures have more than one floor.
-Fantasy, medieval, and cyberpunk settings (as of November 2024) and possibly more to come
-a community of builders on tales tavern (3rd party website) that share resources with another.
-Ability to visualize sight-lines and know if something is actually less than 60 feet away when verticality is involved.
-and many, many more features that would take me so long to list, I don't think steam would allow a review that long.
TLDR; If you like D&D, Cyberpunk, pathfinder, or any other tabletop related games, I'd highly recommend Talespire, as, it's amazing for most situations, and has a lot of customizable options available to you.
I'm a huge fan of this as a virtual tabletop for my DnD campaigns. I have one campaign that's fully remote, so having a tool for 3D battlemaps is awesome. I screenshare with my players so that they didn't need to buy it. Would highly recommend if you're running on online game or if you don't have the time/money to make your own battlemaps for in person games.
it really is the best medium for creating and hosting any tabletop world. Sunk crazy hours into it and it keeps adding new tools for creation.
I really want to like this, but the UI and controls are probably some of the worst things I've ever had the displeasure of interfacing with.
Great for if you are trying to build out a dungeon or location within your campaign as a way to help you visualize the details. I don't think it's as fleshed out as it could be to run a campaign on, but it is still one of the best options I've seen as far as the tools provided. Feels like D&D SIMs, but the tools could use some adjustments due to sometimes feeling a little too clunky. Adding stairs and multiple stories to locations can feel like a chore. It has definitely helped me make adjustments and edits to get a realistic idea of what should be in a location and make a campaign feel more alive. The game also has some great pre-made examples if you are looking for inspiration.
Well-made VTT that has an aesthetic that others can't quite aspire to. Simplified enough to still feel like traditional table-top play, but beautiful enough to give a new layer of atmosphere.
This game has huge potential! We have already finished working on the second season of Dungeons & Dragons, and I can say that it was amazing! As a cartographer, I can confidently say that the possibilities for creating a world are almost limitless. And the community of players pleases us daily with new buildings and unique character models!.
Good game that can bring the map to life if you have the time to put it together, lots of good community content that is shared as well.
This is a great and really detailed tool/game. It wasn't too hard to learn the builder tools, and there's a lot you can do. It is also super easy to import community content, and being able to link custom minis from hero forge is awesome. The camera can feel a bit clunky at times but it's not too bad. Overall A+
Massive rip off, they make it sound like you get 4 seats for your friends with it but they want you to pay £19 for the game and then £39 for 4 seats.
I love the idea of Talespire, but when trying to run it on my computer (which is pretty modern, runs on a 4070), it starts to glitch out and eventually BSODs my computer after a few minutes if I ever tab out of Talespire to go to another window. I can't find any help for this issue online, so I imagine it's some strange rather specific bug with my operating system, but regardless it's completely unusable by me and risks damaging my computer if I keep trying to make it work.
A great 3D D&D online game!
If you have the patience to build maps, Talespire is a great product that will allow you and your friends to play on a 3d map. At times it's stellar, amazing even, but other times it can be a genuine frustration depending on how expansive your game is, how varied the environments, etc. Attempting to build caves, dungeons, tunnels and such can be migraine inducing. I know some of my players experienced difficulties, especially on Mac, but most issues could be dealt with relatively quickly or easily.
All in all, for the cost of 25$ I'd say Talespire is one of the better programs to use for running games but expect to spend a *lot* of time building maps or importing from talestavern.
I cannot recommend this in its current state. Bugs where whole units don't show up and continually disappear. Lack of variety. It's a frustrating UI whether your building or fooling around as a player on the maps. I will edit this as updates come out, but I just can't get around how frustrating this is right now.
