Taverns & Hubs, the biggest generator in my app so far: a whole venue as a floor plan, every spot tappable, with a GM switch for the hidden info
Hi all.
Fantasy World Generator just received a major update, and the newest generator is also the most ambitious one I’ve built yet: Taverns & Hubs.
It generates a whole venue drawn as a floor plan (a map), up to three floors: cellar, ground and upstairs. Every numbered pin on it, is a spot you can tap, like the bar, a booth, the notice board or a guest room. Each line has its own lock and reroll, so you can keep the barkeep and replace the crowd, or keep the people and draw a new floor plan around them.
There is a GM switch that shows everything hidden: the secret room, the stash, the tunnel and where the trouble lies. Switch it off and they leave the map, so you can show the floor plan to your players. In one roll, the cellar of a coaching inn hid a room where a purse of mixed coin sat in a boot, and a band of retired adventurers argued about who had to carry the rope.
The Ledger tab puts the whole venue on one page to read before your session: the owner, every spot, the menu(bill of fare), the games(games of chance) and the trouble. The menu is the food and drink the place serves, priced on a scale of one to five marks in bronze, silver or gold instead of coins, so it fits whatever currency your game uses. The games are the gambling played there, with the rules written out, the stakes, and a line only the GM sees on who is cheating.
The Tonight tab is the evening as a schedule of things that happen. At 6:30 pm a stranger sits down on the step outside and won’t come in until called by name; at 7:30 two old enemies recognise each other across the room. You can roll a different evening, or send it to the app’s Timeline Maker to move events around and add your own.
There are 22 kinds of place across fantasy, sci-fi and 1920s horror, from mead halls to orbital casinos to speakeasies.
It’s free, with no ads. Results come from fixed tables and procedural rules running on the phone, with no AI model involved.
