These cover a variety of game genres, including Medieval/Fantasy, Modern Day, Sci-Fi, Post Apocalyptic, etc. An extensive library of over 200 free and commercial content Add-Ons for MapForge are available, providing nearly 41000 mapping assets to further enrich your maps.
MapForge is ad-free, and the intent is to keep it that way (with the possible exception of gaming and content-related ads in the free Demo version). The software offers a free level of use (only low-resolution output), but to get the most out of it, you’ll want a license, which is currently available for a modest one-time fee of $38 dollars (i.e., there is no recurring monthly/yearly subscription, as with several other map-making apps on the market). A free Demo is available so you can try out the software and evaluate its capabilities prior to purchase. It is cross-platform, supporting both Windows OS and macOS. It is a downloadable application that you install on your computer, and can be used offline, if need be. MapForge is not a web app or online service. Secondary uses of the software include the ability to customize Donjon-generated maps, or to use the app’s Build Tools to create such maps from scratch without requiring a Donjon TSV file at all. The maps that MapForge creates can either be printed out for use in face-to-face game sessions, or they can be used in any of a number of virtual tabletop programs (such as Roll20, Fantasy Grounds, Foundry VTT, etc). This low-cost and easy-to-use software originally focused on creating gorgeous top-down high-resolution tactical-scale battlemaps for use in tabletop RPGs, but was eventually expanded to also support the creation of hex-tile maps and isometric maps. It was initially funded by a then-record-breaking Kickstarter crowdfunding campaign in 2017. MapForge is map-making software from Battlegrounds Games.
