Summon a fantasy world no one has ever seen.

Families who want to make pictures of worlds that never existed before, together. It's a game for grown-ups and kids to play side by side: adults play, kids play, the whole household plays. There's nothing to type: you place picture runes on the board and summon, side by side.

You place runes for what the world holds. A hero, a creature, or a place goes at the heart of it, then the magic, weather, gear, and scenery that surround it. Set a style and a mood, summon, and the wist answers with a vision of that world. Each one takes about half a minute.

We designed it for families from the start, and here's what that means in practice. There's no open prompt to type into. Worlds are assembled from a curated set of settings, characters, and runes, every summon is steered toward family-friendly results, and every finished picture is screened for adult content. There's no chat, no comments, no direct messages, and no way for users to reach each other. There are no profiles, no usernames, and no follower counts. The only social features anywhere are a ♥ and a report button on shared Discover pictures. Both need someone signed in, and Discover only ever shows how many hearts a picture has, never who left them. Accounts belong to adults only: kids never sign up, never enter payment information, and never manage the subscription, and if a child uses Aetherwist they do it through an adult's account. The one thing that can leave your account is a creation shared to our public Discover gallery, and that is never automatic. Nothing is public unless someone chooses to share it, sharing happens one picture at a time from the account area rather than from the creative board, and shared creations are anonymous. Be aware that because the whole family works from a single adult-owned login, we can't tell who is at the keyboard, so anyone signed in can use that button. If you'd rather your kids not share, keep sharing something you do together. You can withdraw anything of yours at any time, and any signed-in family can report a creation for us to review and take down.

It can, and we'd rather tell you up front. Every summon is steered away from adult content and blood, and every finished picture is checked automatically for adult content and thrown away if it fails, before it ever reaches your gallery. But the pictures are made by an AI, and no AI is perfect: once in a while one comes out stranger, darker, or scarier than you'd expect. The worlds are fantasy too, so monsters, battles, and shadowy runes can feel intense for the smallest kids even when nothing has gone wrong. Fantasy art has its own look, too: armor and outfits can sometimes show more skin than everyday clothes, about what you'd see in a family fantasy movie. The best safeguard is the one we recommend anyway: play together, especially with little ones. If a picture isn't right for your family, Release removes it from your gallery for good, and if you think something got past us that shouldn't have, email hello@aetherwist.com and we'll look into it.

No, and they can't have one. Only adults sign up, manage the subscription, and own the account. Kids in the household play through the adult's account. We don't create accounts for children, and we don't collect personal information from them — see our Privacy Policy for exactly what we do and don't collect.
