The heart of this game revolves around the creation of a map, which you will fill out with detail as you play. You will take on the role of a budding cartographer, arriving at a new land with a blank map book and a desire to explore.
By the end of the game, you'll have created a unique map filled with interesting locations and history that you can use in other fantasy role playing games like D&D.
This includes the digital PDF of the game.
Released in April 2024.
Cartograph is a solo / multiplayer map-making RPG about journaling, exploration, worldbuilding, and resource management.
The core rules are easy to learn, and facilitate the creation of a world map through a variety of prompts and tables. By the end of a game, you will have produced a map of an unknown world, complete with a journal that details those places.
This is a great artefact to use as a homebrew setting for your DnD 5e campaign, or other fantasy systems.
Twice as many prompt sets.
A collection of inspiring tables to generate names, people, commodities, and places.
A refined and revised core ruleset for streamlined play.
An in-depth example play.
Rules for multiplayer, non-authoring, and peaceful modes.
