Incredible $30 Map-Making Humble Bundle Is a Online Gaming Game Master's Fantasy
Following a short availability earlier this year, the Map Making Mega Bundle is back with an encore available until Dec. 2. Hailed as an extensive collection of mapping tools created by a specialized software company over the years, the complete package carries a value of over $1,300. Additionally, there exist three different bundles offered in this deal.
Primary Feature
The big draw is certainly permanent access to the CC3+ software, a professional-grade mapping application that can be used to create everything from epic fantasy landscapes, smaller regional maps, urban layouts, and, perhaps most importantly, tactical combat environments.
An imaginative landscape chart generated in Campaign Cartographer 3+.
Bundle Tiers
Entry Level
The most affordable option, starting at just one dollar, features merely four of the 39 total items: Fantasy Overland Symbol Collection, Monster Token Pack 1, Castle Source Maps, and Source Maps: Cities!. This one's only for existing CC3+ users, but it does offer new fantasy symbol styles for overworld maps, more than 750 monster tokens for use in virtual tabletops, more than two dozen aerial castle designs with 470 associated map tokens, eight fully mapped cities, plus seventy-plus building interiors.
Intermediate Package
The eight-item bundle for at least $15 offers enhanced value by adding in permanent CC3+ access, 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 multiple CC3+ enhancements including map packs and additional utilities. Isometric Cities lets you present urban areas in 3D perspective with isometric views from multiple angles. Meanwhile, the Mapping Tome is a 760-page suitable for novices and experts, full of tips and tutorials covering cartography techniques.
Complete Collection
Starting at thirty dollars, the comprehensive package contains these components:
- Fractal Terrains 3+
- Dungeon Designer 3
- Urban Planning Software
- Cosmographer 3
- Viewpoint Enhancement
- Dioramas 3
- Character Design Module
- Symbol Set 2: Fantasy Floorplans

- Comprehensive Mapping Guide
- Fantasy Landscape Symbols
- Monster Token Set 1
- Source Maps: Castles!
- Metropolitan Source Maps
All 17 volumes from the Annual series are included here, alongside a slew of additional tools and content that can help users design entire planets or galaxies, or focus exclusively on traditional fantasy world-building: battle maps, dungeons, urban centers, and land masses from almost any perspective. Users can also create character portraits. At thirty versus fifteen dollars, the complete collection offers tremendous value, especially for cartographers with temporary CC3+ access and want to upgrade to lifetime. But it's obviously more advantageous for map-making newbies considering you even get the beginners' tutorials to facilitate learning. The sole limitation though the purchase is available on any platform, the applications only function on Windows.
Charitable Component
Similar to previous bundles, a portion of each sale supports charitable organizations. For this one, 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 appear near the page top, but you can also select any amount for a donation in the right-hand section. Additionally available is an "Adjust Donation" drop-down immediately below, enabling adjustment of how much of your donation allocated between the platform, developer, and charity.
