Crowdsourcing Mornings: Cartograph – Atlas Edition: A Mapmaking TTRPG

Welcome to the Crowdsourcing Mornings segment!  Every weekday morning, Geek Alabama talks about and features one crowdsourcing project from crowdsourcing sites such as Kickstarter, Indiegogo, and others.  The hope with Crowdsourcing Mornings is to feature and help a project be successful and reach its fundraising goal.  Please enjoy today’s featured project!

The brass of the sextant pushes against your eye. These stars are unfamiliar. You pivot your calipers across the parchment, walking and measuring this alien land. What lies beyond those distant bluffs? Who occupies that structure in the valley? You are an interloper here; so tread with respect, observe, and most importantly, finish your map.

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.

This Kickstarter is for The Atlas Edition of Cartograph, which expands upon the original game in a plethora of ways:

  • 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.
  • over double the content of the original game!

The Atlas Edition is considered the complete edition of the game, so if you previously owned Cartograph and loved it, Atlas Edition is for you.

 

As of February 22nd, this project has raised $37,300 of their $2,627 goal. This project has 1 days left to raise as much as it can. For a pledge of $7, you will get one PDF rulebook.  For a pledge of $33, you will get one book.  To learn more and to pledge money, go to: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/ravensridge/cartograph-atlas-edition-a-solo-mapmaking-ttrpg?
