I’ve been playing D&D for almost 30 years. I’ve played in campaigns run by teen newbie DMs to a national winner of Iron GM, and run multiple games myself. The idea of something that just MIGHT allow for the infinite options and ideas you can run in a REAL pen and paper game rather than the multiple choice you’re limited to in games like the Baldur’s Gate series and related (which is still pretty awesome and I spent MONTHS playing them all now that they’ve been ported to iOS) had me really excited... but multiple start attempts turned me off IMMEDIATELY. I was immediately railroaded into things I DIDN’T WANT TO DO. What kind of a ranger shoots some mysteriously graceful animal right between the eyes just upon SEEING it? I was never asked my gender and another one a woman kept coming on to me and trying to seduce me, no mater how much I kept typing I was a heterosexual GIRL. It doesn’t ACTUALLY let you DO things if it’s taking actions FOR you. You should never control your player’s ACTIONS (unless a charm spell or the like), you REACT to what the player does. You can’t be forcing their hand and yet declaring they can do anything they want. In some I’d type something and it quickly brushed it off and went right back to TELLING me what I did. Already deleting it, and I had such high hopes...

I love dungeon crawlers, DND, and being creative in general. This app does that to an amazing extent. Or at least, it did. It all started when the Explore page was “temporarily” taken down. The devs wanted to improve it. Fair enough, right? That was at least 3-4 months ago. Then, they decided that their community was too toxic and made stricter regulations on what you or the AI says. Even if you didn’t say anything inappropriate, and the AI did, you’d have your account banned AND they’d go through your private stories. But of course, that’s not all. Then they decided to completely revamp the World Information page which is essentially a dictionary for the AI to write its stories from. It was a great idea so you could at items and NPCs to your world. But as I said, they “revamped” it, and now it’s a buggy, unresponsive mess. It made literal HUNDREDS of copies of my information. For example, lets say you added a sword. Then you saved a couple times or something. There is now hundreds of swords with the same description repeating over and over, wasting tons of space and is very annoying to scroll through. The last straw was the privacy breach, allowing anyone to see anyone’s private data and stories. The saddest part is that the AI and community was amazing a couple months ago. I’m very disappointed in this app and I hope they fix all these issues.

The only reason this gets 2 stars is because 1 star reviews are getting deleted. Your stories and data are not safe in this app. The developers of this app have shown that they are more than willing to use a flimsy word filter to manually review stories that their AI believes is offensive, an AI which, if I may add, cannot even remember the name or gender of my story’s characters half the time. Offending stories are then submitted for manual review by a human. That is right, a human can read what are supposed to be your private stories without consent. Unless you are fine with the idea of a complete stranger reading your stories, stay well clear. These same developers are also willfully ignoring security faults after a major data breach that allowed a hacker with (fortunately) good intentions to get the plaintext for thousands of what are supposed to be PRIVATE user stories. I can very easily see how a similar such hack with more malicious intentions can be used to blackmail users via the email they registered their account with by threatening to release their private stories. To say again, your data and your stories are NOT safe with AI Dungeon. Do not download this, and do not give the developers a single penny.
