The Recipes to the Cauldron’s Kitchen

Campaign Cookbook is the sibling product to The Campaign Cauldron in the DreamGlyph Studios family: where the Cauldron brews a world from scratch, the Cookbook is the pre-written recipes you run as-is at the table. No prep required — pick a campaign, and the app reads it to you scene by scene: read-aloud text, DM notes, skill checks, monster stat blocks, and branching dialog-tree choices that track quests as your players make them.

Write your own adventures

The Campaign Authoring Guide documents the campaign format the app reads — scenes, branching choices, quest actions, and the placeholders that fill in towns, dungeons, NPCs and monsters as a party plays.

It ships with a live testbed: paste a campaign in and walk it scene by scene in the browser, with the same validation rules the app itself uses, before it ever reaches a table.

Features

  • 7 bundled campaigns spanning levels 1–20, one per level bracket, each with real branching scene content — investigation, combat, exploration, heists, and epic-tier world-ending stakes.
  • DLC-ready campaign loading — additional campaigns and multi-campaign “sagas” install without touching the base app.
  • Live generators — procedurally generated dungeons and caves with click-to-reveal fog-of-war maps, NPCs with full stat blocks, and named towns with shops and shopkeeper NPCs, all seeded per party.
  • Multi-party support — run several tables through different campaigns concurrently, each with independent progress, quest log, and party ledger.
  • Encounter Builder + Initiative Tracker — search the full bundled D&D 5e compendium, assemble an encounter, and hand it straight to a turn-order/HP tracker with a built-in dice roller.
  • Player View — a player-facing popout for a second monitor, showing real fog-of-war and combat status without ever leaking DM-only information.

Carry a laptop or iPad instead of five books, dice trays, dice, and battle mats.
