About this game

Your story lives in Word, Docs, or a game engine. Its world lives in Nib. Every character, place, faction, magic system, and plot thread, linked together and one search away. No need to have a dozen tabs on your browser, constantly switch between your world building app and your writing app, or fight with always on top docs. 

You can do all your world building in the expanded app and then shrink Nib down to a small button you can freely move around your screen. One click and you can search any entry in it's entirety while staying on your writing app. 

PICK WHAT YOU'RE BUILDING

Nib can be used to house your world, outlines, scenes, notes, and more. All tags, entries, and templates can be customized to suite your needs.

EVERYTHING LINKS TO EVERYTHING

All entries can be linked in text to other entries. You can use premade or custom templates for each entry type, and make fields with automatic linking to other entries. 

A COMPANION WHILE YOU WRITE

Shrink Nib to a small floating button over your writing app. Click it to search your world, read any entry in full, or capture a quick note without switching windows or tabbing between apps.

FAST and FOCUSED

  • Instant fuzzy search across everything

  • Offline spell check that never flags your entry names
