Map Maker

About Map Maker:
In the fantasy world of sword and sorcery, every adventurer knows that what they need when they are adventuring in the overworlds and exploring the dungeons below, is a detailed map that helps them navigate the area and points out all the dangers they may Encounter. In this game, you are a Map Maker, exploring the depths of the area’s most dangerous dungeons in the pursuit of documenting every creature and dungeon boss you meet, and hopefully defeat, along the way. Then, when you are safe and sound back at your humble abode, you will fill in the details on the included Wild Map for future adventurers to reference. Be careful out there! This is not an easy task.

Map Maker is divided into two phases; dungeon delving and boss fighting. In the dungeon delving phase, you will choose and resolve a variety of Encounters according to your Hero's stats for each level you descend, as you venture deeper into the dungeons, until you meet the boss. During the boss fighting phase, you will fight the dungeon boss following special instructions on each boss sheet. Each boss has unique features, skills and actions that you have to use different strategies to overcome, if you want to prevail.

Object of the game:
Map Maker is for you and up to three of your friends to become the Heroes of the story, and to delve deep into a dungeon until you discover the final boss. You win the game if you defeat the boss. Then you get to fill out the Wild Map and record the various information about the dungeon; how many levels there were and who/what the final boss was. Each map marks six dungeons with Roman numerals. Once you have defeated all six dungeons and recorded all the details on the Wild Map, your quest is complete. And remember, the brave Hero who delivers the final blow to the dungeon boss gets to put their name on the Wild Map to be remembered for all eternity. So, fight hard, intrepid adventurers!
