Incredible $30 Map-Making Humble Bundle Represents a Online Gaming GM's Dream
Following a short availability earlier this year, this cartography software collection is back with an encore that lasts until Dec. 2. Hailed as a "treasure trove of assets and apps" developed by ProFantasy Software throughout their history, the complete package is valued at over $1,300. And there are multiple package options available here.
Primary Feature
The standout feature is certainly a lifetime license for Campaign Cartographer 3+, an industry-standard cartography program which enables users to create everything from fantasy overworld maps, smaller regional maps, city maps, and, perhaps most importantly, tactical combat environments.
An imaginative landscape chart created using Campaign Cartographer 3+.
Bundle Tiers
Basic Package
The cheapest bundle tier, at a minimum cost of $1, includes only four from the thirty-nine available products: Fantasy Overland Symbol Collection, Monster Token Pack 1, Castle Source Maps, and Source Maps: Cities!. This one's only for existing CC3+ users, yet it provides fresh fantasy design elements for overworld maps, more than 750 monster tokens compatible with online gaming platforms, more than two dozen aerial castle designs including hundreds of map markers, eight complete urban centers, and more than 70 urban floorplans.
Mid-Range Option
The eight-item bundle starting at fifteen dollars is where things get more interesting through inclusion of permanent CC3+ access, Cartographer's Annual Vol 1, Tome of Ultimate Mapping, and Symbol Set 6: Isometric Cities. The Annual represents the yearly bundle from ProFantasy's long-running monthly subscription service featuring multiple CC3+ enhancements like map collections and various other tools. Isometric Cities lets you present urban areas in 3D perspective using angled views from multiple angles. Meanwhile, the Mapping Tome comprises 760 pages suitable for novices and experts, packed with guidance and instructions for the map-making process.
Complete Collection
For a minimum of $30, the 39-item bundle contains these components:
- Advanced Terrain Generator
- Dungeon Designer 3
- City Designer 3
- Cosmic Mapping System
- Viewpoint Enhancement
- Scene Builder
- Character Design Module
- Fantasy Interior Symbols
- Symbol Set 3: Modern
- Schley Dungeon Collection
- Symbol Set 5: Cities of Schley
- Token Treasury: Monsters 2
- Religious Structure Maps
- World War 2 Interactive Atlas
- World Builder’s Compendium
- Cartographer’s Annual Vol 1-17
- Campaign Cartographer 3+ (Lifetime License)
- 3D City Symbols
- Tome of Ultimate Mapping
- Fantasy Landscape Symbols
- Token Treasury: Monsters 1
- Fortress Source Maps
- Metropolitan Source Maps
Every volume of Cartographer's Annual come with this bundle, alongside a slew of additional tools and content enabling creators to design entire planets or galaxies, or just go all-in on traditional fantasy world-building: battle maps, dungeons, urban centers, and continents in multiple viewpoints. You can even design character portraits. For $30 as opposed to $15, the complete collection is so worth it, particularly for mappers who have only the annual CC3+ license and want to upgrade to lifetime. But it's obviously an even better deal for map-making newbies since it includes the beginners' tutorials to help you get started. The one caveat here is that while you can redeem the deal across platforms, the software is only usable with Windows systems.
Philanthropic Aspect
Similar to previous bundles, a portion of each sale goes to benefit a nonprofit. In this instance, that's Save the Children, an organization founded by Eglantyne Jebb in 1919 focused on improving the lives of children worldwide via educational programs, medical services, and crisis response. Package customization options is toward the top of the page, though users may also choose their donation amount on the right side of the page. There's also an "Adjust Donation" drop-down immediately below, enabling adjustment of the distribution percentage allocated between the platform, developer, and charity.
