Reviews
- Articy is an excellent tool for organizing and managing various creative projects, including game development, tabletop RPGs, and writing, making it highly recommended for narrative-focused creators.
- The software offers a powerful interface for outlining projects, creating dialogue trees, and managing assets, which enhances the workflow for both solo developers and teams.
- Great customer support and a comprehensive tutorial system help users navigate the software effectively, making it accessible for both experienced developers and newcomers.
- The software is slow and requires an internet connection for the Team Edition, which limits offline work and can be frustrating for writers who prefer flexibility in their writing environment.
- The subscription model is considered too expensive, especially for small teams or indie developers, and the multi-user licensing costs are prohibitive.
- Some users find the dialogue system inadequate for complex projects, and the overall functionality is seen as lacking compared to standalone tools that offer better features for a lower price.

Users praise the story aspect of the program for its robust tools that facilitate storywriting and storyboarding, allowing for the creation of dialogue, quest, and plot trees in a schematic format. The software is likened to professional scriptwriting tools, making it ideal for those looking to organize their narratives and overcome writer's block. Overall, it is seen as a valuable resource for both aspiring and experienced storytellers.
“Dialogue, quest, and plot trees can be written within the program schematically.”
“There is a simple document writing tool that lets you write and format dialogues similar to professional script tools like Articy Draft, Celtx, etc. If you like to get started on story and dialogues in a more traditional format, this is a good thing to have.”
“This is a great program for those who need help plotting a story, organizing entities, and in general for those who know how to program and would like a design document 'CMS of sorts'.”
