Alchemy RPG vs Quest Portal

Alchemy RPG is a virtual tabletop for running story-driven tabletop roleplaying games. Its scenes bring game mechanics together with music, animated environments, and overlays to support cinematic play. The Free Unlimited plan costs nothing and includes unlimited games, characters, universes, voice and video chat, and asset uploads, plus every game system and a homebrew system builder. Alchemy identifies gamemasters, players, and creators as its audience. Desktop apps are available for Windows, macOS, and Linux; the requirements are Windows 10 or later, macOS Monterey 12.0 or later, or Linux such as Ubuntu 22.04 or newer. A stable internet connection is required. The web app runs in browsers on computers, tablets, and mobile devices, though tablet and mobile use is not yet optimized. D&D Beyond character import is available to Alchemy Unlimited subscribers. Marketplace purchases are intended for download and use both within and outside Alchemy.

Quest Portal is a virtual tabletop for playing tabletop role-playing games on desktop and mobile devices. Game Masters can build maps and scenes using fog of war, tokens, walls, lighting, measurements, scene controls, and atmospheric music. Campaign chat, collaborative notes, and invitations by link or username support play with others, and campaigns are unlimited. Players can use premade character sheet templates or create no-code sheets for different TTRPG systems. The Game Master Assistant answers rules questions, creates scenes and NPCs, and helps develop campaign ideas. Quest Portal says its iOS and Android apps support the same activities as the web app, and marketplace purchases are available on all three. The Free plan is billed at $0 per month and includes unlimited campaigns and characters, maps and tokens with fog of war, scenes with music, dynamic lighting, and collaborative notes. Pro pricing is not shown. Assistant tasks use credits at varying rates, and PDF imports cost 25 credits each; subscribers can buy credit top-ups.
