Incredible $30 Cartography Humble Bundle Is a Online Gaming GM's Dream
Following a brief run earlier this year, the Map Making Mega Bundle is back for a limited time available until Dec. 2. Hailed as a "treasure trove of assets and apps" developed by a specialized software company over the years, the complete package is valued at over $1,300. And there are multiple package options available here.
The Main Attraction
The big draw is certainly a lifetime license for Campaign Cartographer 3+, a professional-grade mapping application which enables users to create everything from fantasy overworld maps, detailed regional charts, city maps, and most notably, tactical combat environments.
A regional fantasy map created using the CC3+ software platform.
Package Levels
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, Urban Source Maps. This one's only for existing CC3+ users, yet it provides fresh fantasy design elements for landscape mapping, over seven hundred fifty creature tokens compatible with online gaming platforms, more than two dozen aerial castle designs with 470 associated map tokens, eight complete urban centers, plus seventy-plus building interiors.
Intermediate Package
The eight-product collection starting at fifteen dollars is where things get more interesting through inclusion of a lifetime CC3+ license, the first Annual volume, Tome of Ultimate Mapping, and Symbol Set 6: Isometric Cities. The Annual represents the annual collection from ProFantasy's ongoing subscription program which includes a variety CC3+ add-ons like map collections and various other tools. Isometric Cities lets you display cities with an extra dimension using angled 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.
Full Package
Starting at thirty dollars, the 39-item bundle includes all the following:
- Fractal Terrains 3+

All 17 volumes of Cartographer's Annual are included here, plus numerous additional tools and content enabling creators to design entire planets or galaxies, or just go all-in on classic fantasy realm creation: battle maps, dungeons, urban centers, and continents from almost any perspective. You can even design character portraits. For $30 as opposed to $15, the full bundle is so worth it, especially for cartographers who have only the annual CC3+ license and want to upgrade to lifetime. But it's obviously more advantageous for cartography beginners considering you even get the beginners' tutorials to facilitate learning. The sole limitation though you can redeem the deal on any platform, the software is only usable with Windows systems.
Charitable Component
As with other Humble Bundles, a portion of each sale goes to benefit a nonprofit. In this instance, the beneficiary is Save the Children, established in 1919 by Eglantyne Jebb dedicated to enhancing children's welfare globally via educational programs, medical services, and crisis response. The Bundle Filters option appear near the page top, but you can also select their donation amount in the right-hand section. There's also an donation allocation menu immediately below, allowing you to adjust how much of your donation allocated between the platform, developer, and charity.
