Hey everyone, the new Voyage survey just went live (link below). Before you dive in, 394 of you filled out the last one and asked us to share what came out of it.

Here's what stood out:

- How you describe Voyage. Asked to pitch it to a friend, most of you reached for the same words: D&D, a tabletop RPG, an AI dungeon master. The twist: most of you who describe it that way don't actually play tabletop. For a lot of you, Voyage is the first thing like it you've played.

- The good and the bad. You told us what makes Voyage fun (freedom, real RPG progression, a world that remembers what you did) and what still breaks the spell (NPCs knowing things they shouldn't, the story contradicting itself, the Narrator claiming a fix that didn't happen). More than half of you already call Voyage "revolutionary."

- How you rated it. The full scorecard, every part of the game and how you scored it, top to bottom, no cherry-picking.

- Creation, for everyone. Almost half of you build your own worlds, and most who don't told us they want to, they're just stuck on how.

Voyage in your own words:

"DnD for people with no friends. Or I suppose DnD with a little less careful curation, a little more randomness, and the ability to play solo or drop in/out without having to settle in once a week and hope no one cancels."

"It's like being able to boot up DnD campaigns without needing a group. You get to build characters (and worlds if you want to) and throw them into any setting you can think of. It's still a work in progress but it's developing into something special."

"The format literally looks like a .txt file coding format how am I, someone who knows little to nothing about coding supposed to understand?"

We're still in beta, and the rough edges above are exactly what we're building against, creation tools included, so anyone can make worlds without touching code.

The new survey takes about 10 minutes and it shapes what we build next: https://survey.alchemer.com/s3/8871028/Voyage-Beta-June-Survey

See you next month!

Hey everyone,

The June survey is out now, link at the bottom, takes about 10 minutes. But first, here's what last month's told us.

We tried something new: we hid three AI-written passages among three from George R.R. Martin, J.R.R. Tolkien and Frank Herbert, and asked you to spot which was which.

You couldn't. Across all six passages you were right 56% of the time, barely better than a coin flip. 343 of you were certain a Frank Herbert passage was a machine, and our DeepSeek passage fooled more of you than anything else. Spotting AI across a long adventure is far easier than judging two sentences cold, but at snippet length, good writing is just good writing.

We also put real feature requests from our Discord and our subreddit in front of you. Your top picks: a retry box that tells the AI what to change (46%), pinning a story card so it never falls out of context (40%), and branching paths with checkpoints (37%). 23% of you said skip all that and just work on the core AI. Noted.

And when we asked the one thing you want to tell developers, in your words:

"Memory, memory, memory. If I Am playing a story I lose immersion and get frustrated when the AI forgets VERY IMPORTANT story details at random."

"Better dialogue from NPCs; I pull my hair out every time an NPC says the word 'Clever' whenever I do a basic action"

"The search function. What the hell did you guys do to it? It was already great PREVIOUSLY AND NOW I CAN'T HAVE MULTIPLE TAGS IN THE SEARCH BAR?"

One more thing, since almost half of you said you had no idea it existed: AI Dungeon has a referral program. Invite a friend from your Settings page, they get 20% off their first subscription and you both save (and they play free, unlimited, if they never subscribe). You both win.
