What it is
AtlasForge covers Skyrim Special Edition + Anniversary Edition at atlasforge.gg/skyrim. Interactive map with markers for every vanilla collectible: dragons, words of power for shouts, daedric quests, unique weapons, standing stones, etc.
Free tier without paywall, persistent checkboxes included. Moderate ads.
What it solves
Skyrim has 7 daedric quests, 27 shouts spread across dragon priests and word walls, 13 standing stones, 18 dragon types with variable spawns. Tracking without an interactive map means constantly consulting UESP.
AtlasForge consolidates everything into a visual map with checkboxes for completionist run tracking.
Differentiation
Against Map Genie Skyrim, it wins on free tier — Map Genie requires Pro for persistent checkboxes; AtlasForge gives that for free. It loses on native mobile app — Map Genie has iOS/Android apps, AtlasForge is web only.
Against UESP, it wins on visual; UESP is text-heavy. UESP wins on factual exhaustiveness.
What people use it for
Vanilla completionist runs: track dragons, shouts, daedric quests.
Free cross-device tracking: sync between PC and mobile browser.
Item lookup: unique weapon stats with drop locations.
Cross-game user: same account for Skyrim, Elden Ring, Cyberpunk, Palworld.
Who shouldn't use it
If you play heavily modded, the vanilla map may have gaps with your modded content.
If you expect a native mobile app, Map Genie has better mobile UX.
If your priority is wiki exhaustiveness, UESP is the reference.
How it's used in practice
- Open
atlasforge.gg/skyrim. - Create a free account for sync.
- Enable filters (Dragons, Shouts, Daedric, Standing Stones).
- Mark items completed per session.
- For factual detail, cross-reference UESP.
Honest limitations
Vanilla coverage only: mods adding content don't appear.
No native mobile app: web responsive only.
No community comments: pure tracking, no editorial discussion.
Slow updates: vanilla Skyrim doesn't change, but if Bethesda ships patches with Creation Club changes, AtlasForge lags.
How to start

atlasforge.gg/skyrim. - Create a free account.
