Somni Tales vs Talkie — a whole narrated story, not a character chat
Talkie is a mobile character-chat app: collect characters, chat, and gather card art. For quick companionship-style roleplay on your phone, it's easy and fun.
Somni Tales is a whole story, not a chat thread. You step into a book as its hero, in a world with places, stakes, chapters and consequences — narrated aloud like an audiobook that answers back, illustrated in ink, always heading toward a real ending.

Questions
Can I collect and chat with characters in Somni Tales?
You meet and talk to characters constantly — but inside a story, as its hero. They remember how you treat them and act on it, rather than living in a separate chat.
Is there gacha or loot in Somni Tales?
No. There's one simple currency — diamonds — spent only on story turns as you play. No pulls, no loot boxes, no character cards to chase.
Is it free to try?
Yes — 10 diamonds free when you confirm your email, no card needed. Packs from $5 after that; no subscription.
