Fantastic $30 Map-Making Software Bundle Is a Virtual Tabletop GM's Dream
Following a short availability back in April, this cartography software collection has returned for a limited time that lasts through early December. Described as a "treasure trove of assets and apps" created by ProFantasy Software over the years, the complete package is valued at more than thirteen hundred dollars. Additionally, there exist three different bundles offered in this deal.
The Main Attraction
The standout feature is certainly a lifetime license to the CC3+ software, a professional-grade mapping application that can be used to create everything from epic fantasy landscapes, smaller regional maps, city maps, and, perhaps most importantly, tactical combat environments.

Package Levels
Entry Level
The cheapest bundle tier, starting at just one dollar, features merely four of the 39 total items: Symbol Set 1: Fantasy Overland, Token Treasury: Monsters 1, Source Maps: Castles!, Urban Source Maps. This package suits cartographers who already have CC3+, yet it provides new fantasy symbol styles for overworld maps, more than 750 monster tokens compatible with online gaming platforms, more than two dozen top-down castle layouts with 470 associated map tokens, eight fully mapped cities, and more than 70 urban floorplans.
Intermediate Package
The eight-product collection for at least $15 offers enhanced value by adding in a lifetime CC3+ license, the first Annual volume, Ultimate Mapping Guidebook, Isometric Cities Symbol Pack. The Annual represents the annual collection from ProFantasy's ongoing subscription program which includes multiple CC3+ enhancements including map packs and various other tools. The Isometric Cities enables display cities with an extra dimension using angled views from all sides. 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 39-item bundle contains these components:
- Advanced Terrain Generator
- Dungeon Designer 3
- City Designer 3
- Cosmographer 3
- Perspectives 3
- Dioramas 3
- Character Artist 3
- Fantasy Interior Symbols
- Symbol Set 3: Modern
- Schley Dungeon Collection
- Schley Urban Pack
- Monster Token Collection 2
- Source Maps: Temples, Tombs and Catacombs

- Permanent CC3+ Access
- 3D City Symbols
- Tome of Ultimate Mapping
- Symbol Set 1: Fantasy Overland
- Monster Token Set 1
- Source Maps: Castles!
- Source Maps: Cities!
Every volume 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 just go all-in on traditional fantasy world-building: combat arenas, dungeons, urban centers, and continents in multiple viewpoints. You can even design character portraits. For $30 as opposed to $15, the full bundle is so worth it, particularly for mappers who have only the annual CC3+ license seeking permanent licensing. However, it's clearly an even better deal for cartography beginners considering you even get the beginners' tutorials to facilitate learning. The one caveat here is that while the purchase is available across platforms, the software is only usable on Windows.
Charitable Component
Similar to previous bundles, a portion of each sale supports charitable organizations. 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. The Bundle Filters option is toward the top of the page, but you can also select their donation amount in the right-hand section. Additionally available is an "Adjust Donation" drop-down just below that, allowing you to adjust the distribution percentage allocated between the platform, developer, and charity.
