One (Long) Sentence Description

Worldographer 2025 (free demo available, crowdfunding now!) expands & revises the go-to hex mapping tool with UI improvements and many new features: More & improved generators for hex crawls, worlds, cites/villages, & battlemats plus UI improvements.

200-ish Word Summary

Worldographer 2025 is here! Like a new car model, it comes out before the year even starts! A full demo is ready for you to explore–get it via our crowdfunding page. The full release drops a few weeks after the crowdfunding ends.

If you haven’t used Worldographer before, it installs to your Windows, Mac, or Linux computer–so you never have to worry about a bad connection or our website being down. It is easier than most other map-making programs because the controls are streamlined to make maps in certain styles and it features a slew of generators to make a world, region, city, village, or battlemat that is close to what you want–then you just tweak it from there.  But if you prefer you can hand-place everything–the map is fully editable no matter how you created it.

The new version has: a trove of minor UI improvements that really add up (for example scroll through features/terrain without moving other related controls off screen); a much faster world generator; major improvements to the river, nation/empire, & hex crawl generators; more icons and data files to auto-generate non-fantasy towns; a battlemat room generator–just pick a room type and drop it on the map; and many more!

What’s New in Worldographer 2025?

  • Updated, more modern UI.
  • Revise UI drawers for Terrain, Features, Shapes, and Labels. Each separates the various settings controls from the buttons of terrain/features so they can scroll independently.
  • Many small UI tweaks (more pre-set rotate options, colored control points for curves, etc.)
  • A much faster world generator—so the live preview works for larger sized maps. Plus major improvements to the river, nation/empire, & hex crawl generators.
  • Customize the terrain the world generator uses.
  • Prettier coastlines and rivers built-in for the classic style maps. (In the older version, only isometric maps have a pretty coastline option.)
  • More street layout options for cities/towns/villages.
  • More built-in icons to support generating modern, sci-fi, western, and post-apocalypse city/village maps. Plus extra options to auto-generate these settlement types.
  • More special lines options: control the lengths of tick/hash marks in elevation and railroad lines.
  • Generate a room on a battlemat by selecting a few options (room size, type, doors, furniture, etc) then place it wherever you want on the map!

Plus, it still loads all your existing Worldographer maps and retains all the features you love!
