1. Agree on a premise everyone wants to play
Before creating a room, agree on a genre, a tone and the kind of relationship you want to explore. A shared mystery or adventure gives everyone an immediate goal, while a relationship-focused story needs agreement about comfort and boundaries. Each player should read the public premise and their role description. Keep private character knowledge separate from what the whole group knows, and never use a fictional scene to pressure a real participant.
2. Arrange roles before sending invitations
Create a room from the selected scenario. Use the available role controls to plan which parts belong to real players and which are performed by AI. Confirm that your friends can choose suitable roles under the room’s participation policy. Do not promise that an occupied role can always be swapped later. A small first cast is easier to coordinate: you can understand the relationship between two player roles while AI performs the rest of the scene.
3. Check entry permissions and share the room
Use the room’s sharing controls and review whether participation is open, restricted or requires approval where those options are available. Ask friends to open the invitation and verify their role before the scene begins. Spectating and participating are different: an allowed spectator may read the story without taking a role. If someone cannot join, check the room policy and role availability first instead of creating multiple duplicate rooms.
4. Agree on pacing and leave others agency
Decide whether you are playing together now or replying at different times. Write your own role’s words and actions, then give friends a chance to respond before a major scene change. For long gaps, recap the location, shared discoveries and pending decision without exposing another role’s secret. This is a player coordination habit, not an automatic turn-order feature. If the AI gets a fact wrong, correct it briefly and agree on the version the group will continue from.
Coordination example: “Let us pause at the archive door until both players have replied. We know the letter is missing, but we have not agreed to accuse the keeper.” This preserves a shared scene without choosing another player’s response.
