Fantastic $30 Map-Making Software Bundle Is a Online Gaming GM's Dream

After a short availability earlier this year, the Map Making Mega Bundle has returned with an encore available through early December. Hailed as an extensive collection of mapping tools developed by ProFantasy Software throughout their history, the entire collection carries a value of more than thirteen hundred dollars. Additionally, there exist three different bundles available here.

The Main Attraction

The standout feature is definitely permanent access for Campaign Cartographer 3+, an industry-standard cartography program which enables users to generate various types including epic fantasy landscapes, smaller regional maps, city maps, and, perhaps most importantly, dungeon and tabletop battle maps.

A regional fantasy map generated in Campaign Cartographer 3+.

Bundle Tiers

Entry Level

The cheapest bundle tier, starting at just one dollar, includes only four of the 39 total items: Symbol Set 1: Fantasy Overland, Monster Token Pack 1, Source Maps: Castles!, and Source Maps: Cities!. This one's only for cartographers who already have CC3+, yet it provides new fantasy symbol styles for landscape mapping, more than 750 monster tokens compatible with online gaming platforms, more than two dozen top-down castle layouts including hundreds of map markers, eight complete urban centers, plus seventy-plus building interiors.

Intermediate Package

The eight-item bundle for at least $15 offers enhanced value through inclusion of a lifetime CC3+ license, the first Annual volume, Ultimate Mapping Guidebook, and Symbol Set 6: Isometric Cities. The Annual represents the yearly bundle from ProFantasy's long-running monthly subscription service which includes a variety CC3+ add-ons including map packs and various other tools. The Isometric Cities enables display cities with an extra dimension with isometric views from multiple angles. Meanwhile, the Mapping Tome comprises 760 pages for beginners and "power users" alike, packed with guidance and instructions covering cartography techniques.

Full Package

Starting at thirty dollars, the 39-item bundle includes all the following:

• Advanced Terrain Generator
• Dungeon Creation Tool
• City Designer 3
• Cosmic Mapping System
• Perspectives 3
• Scene Builder
• Character Design Module
• Symbol Set 2: Fantasy Floorplans

All 17 volumes from the Annual series are included here, plus numerous additional tools and content enabling creators to craft complete solar systems, or focus exclusively on traditional fantasy world-building: battle maps, dungeons, urban centers, and land masses from almost any perspective. You can even design character portraits. At thirty versus fifteen dollars, the complete collection is so worth it, especially for cartographers who have only the annual CC3+ license seeking permanent licensing. But it's obviously more advantageous for cartography beginners since it includes the beginners' tutorials to help you get started. The sole limitation though you can redeem the deal on any platform, the software is only usable on Windows.

Philanthropic Aspect

Similar to previous bundles, a portion of each sale supports charitable organizations. In this instance, the beneficiary is Save the Children, established in 1919 by Eglantyne Jebb dedicated to enhancing children's welfare globally through education, health care, and emergency relief. Package customization options is toward the top of the page, but you can also select any amount for a donation on the right side of the page. Additionally available is an donation allocation menu just below that, allowing you to adjust how much of your donation allocated between the platform, developer, and charity.
