Incredible $30 Map-Making Software Bundle Is a Online Gaming Game Master's Fantasy
After a short availability earlier this year, the Map Making Mega Bundle has returned for a limited time available until Dec. 2. 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. And there are multiple package options offered in this deal.
Primary Feature
The big draw is certainly a lifetime license for Campaign Cartographer 3+, a professional-grade mapping application which enables users to create everything from epic fantasy landscapes, detailed regional charts, urban layouts, and, perhaps most importantly, tactical combat environments.
An imaginative landscape chart created using the CC3+ software platform.
Bundle Tiers
Basic Package
The cheapest bundle tier, at a minimum cost of $1, features merely four from the thirty-nine available products: Fantasy Overland Symbol Collection, Monster Token Pack 1, Source Maps: Castles!, Urban Source Maps. This package suits cartographers who already have CC3+, but it does offer new fantasy symbol styles for overworld maps, over seven hundred fifty creature tokens compatible with online gaming platforms, more than two dozen aerial castle designs including hundreds of map markers, eight fully mapped cities, and more than 70 urban floorplans.
Mid-Range Option
The eight-product collection starting at fifteen dollars is where things get more interesting by adding in a lifetime CC3+ license, Cartographer's Annual Vol 1, 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. Isometric Cities lets you display cities with an extra dimension using angled views from all sides. Meanwhile, the Mapping Tome comprises 760 pages suitable for novices and experts, full of tips and tutorials for the map-making process.
Complete Collection
For a minimum of $30, the comprehensive package includes all the following:
- Advanced Terrain Generator
- Dungeon Designer 3
- Urban Planning Software
- Cosmographer 3
- Perspectives 3
- Dioramas 3
- Character Artist 3
- Symbol Set 2: Fantasy Floorplans

- Monster Token Collection 2
- Source Maps: Temples, Tombs and Catacombs

- Cartographer’s Annual Vol 1-17
- Permanent CC3+ Access
- 3D City Symbols
- Comprehensive Mapping Guide
- Fantasy Landscape Symbols
- Token Treasury: Monsters 1
- Fortress Source Maps
- Metropolitan Source Maps
Every volume of Cartographer's Annual are included here, alongside a slew of additional tools and content enabling creators to design entire planets or galaxies, or focus exclusively on classic fantasy realm creation: battle maps, dungeons, cities, and land masses from almost any perspective. Users can also create character portraits. For $30 as opposed to $15, the full bundle offers tremendous value, particularly for mappers who have only the annual CC3+ license seeking permanent licensing. However, it's clearly more advantageous for cartography beginners considering you even get introductory guides to help you get started. The one caveat here though you can redeem the deal across platforms, the software is only usable with Windows systems.
Charitable Component
As with other Humble Bundles, part of every purchase supports charitable organizations. For this one, that's Save the Children, established in 1919 by Eglantyne Jebb focused on improving the lives of children worldwide through education, health care, and emergency relief. Package customization options is toward the top of the page, though users may also choose their donation amount in the right-hand section. Additionally available is an "Adjust Donation" drop-down immediately below, enabling adjustment of how much of your donation goes to Humble, Profantasy, and Save the Children.
