Create dungeon maps with Dungeon Scrawl

*I created this simple dungeon map in just a few minutes*

I have long been a fan of maps. As a teenager, my bedroom ceiling was completely covered with maps from National Geographic magazines. I often rearranged the furniture in my room but for the most time I slept beneath France.

Dungeon Scrawl is a free, online resource for quickly creating old school dungeon crawler maps for RPG games (or just for fun!). It features:

A variety of map styles, brushes, tools and fonts
Support for layers
Isometric edit mode
Multi-page PDF export
Easy VTT compatibility

Import images of assets

Pacman on Google Maps

Playing PAC-MAN on the streets of Anstruther with Google Maps

I really enjoyed Google Maps’ April Fool’s addition this year: PAC-MAN.

That’s a screenshot of me playing it on the streets near my house.

I wasn’t very good at it, mind: I never managed to clear the whole screen of pac-dots.
