Virtual tabletop (VTT)

Subscription
Narrantium is a browser-based virtual tabletop built around the story rather than grids and tokens: the DM assembles branching scenes, maps, NPCs, music and combat encounters into a playable adventure using a visual quest builder, then runs it live. Players join the session from any browser with an invite link — no account, no install — so it works for remote tables and in person too, with the Player Screen cast to a TV. System-agnostic with solid D&D 5e support; only the DM needs a subscription, players always play free, and there's a free plan.
