Story Cubes
Roll 9 random emojis. Write a story using all of them.
How to use the Story Cubes generator
Roll nine emoji “cubes” and write a story that uses all of them. Choose a theme — Mixed, Adventure, Mystery, Fantasy, Everyday, or Kids — to set the mood, and write straight into the box on the page. It is a quick way past writer’s block.
How it works
- Pick a theme, or leave it on Mixed.
- Press Roll the Cubes to get nine random images.
- Write a story that includes every image — in any order.
- Share your roll to challenge someone else to write with the same nine.
Writing tips
- Pick the strangest cube first. Building the story around the odd one out makes the rest easier to fit.
- Let images be metaphors. A cube showing a key does not have to be a real key.
- Set a limit. Five minutes or 100 words keeps it playful.
