Discovery edition

Choose a story

Three ready-made stories to run at your table. Opening a story loads every chapter, so each sound starts the moment you tap it.

This is a discovery edition. Try Bardic with three fixed stories, straight from your browser. It needs a connection, loads a whole story before playing, and stops if the page closes.

The Android app is made for real sessions: your own sounds and stories, a low-latency engine, playback with the screen off, and everything stays on your phone.

Bardic for iPhone is made for real sessions: your own sounds and stories, kept on your iPhone, ready offline.

More tales The Compagnie des bardes Stories forged by other game masters wait in its Recueil. On this computer, you can also play your own .bardic files.

Music and sounds: Battle for Wesnoth, 0 A.D., Flare and Stendhal (credits).

Compagnie des bardes

Play a tale

Open a .bardic file from your computer, forged in the Story builder or the Bardic app, and run it on the mixing table.

The file is read by your browser and never uploaded. Looking for a tale? Browse the Recueil.

Playing your own .bardic files is for a computer. On your phone, the Bardic app is your table: open the file there.
