What kinds of maps can Worldographer create?

Worldographer (also known as Hexographer 2) is map-making software from Inkwell Ideas for quickly creating hex-style world and kingdom maps, city and village maps, and dungeons and battlemats. It can generate maps and supporting world information automatically, or you can build them step by step and make changes as you go.

World and kingdom maps

Worldographer is built around hex-style mapping, so its core strength is overworld and realm-scale cartography. According to the site, it lets you "quickly create hex-style world & kingdom maps."

Beyond the map itself, the software can generate information about that world, including:

• Cultures
• Religions
• Nations

That means the tool is aimed at producing not just terrain and borders but a usable setting framework around them.

City and village maps

Worldographer also includes functionality for making city and village maps. These can be handled in two ways:

• Auto-generated — the software produces the settlement map for you.
• Step by step — you build it incrementally, which lets you make changes along the way.

The step-by-step option matters if you want a specific layout rather than a random result.

Dungeons and battlemats

The same software covers smaller-scale encounter maps. Per the site, it allows you to "quickly create dungeons & battlemats," and it can auto-generate:

• Dungeons
• Inns
• Shops
• And more

So the tool spans three scales: world/kingdom, settlement, and interior/encounter.

What to keep in mind

The site describes these capabilities but does not publish pricing or licensing details on the material available here, so check the product page directly before committing. If your priority is hex-based worldbuilding with generated setting detail, Worldographer is designed for exactly that; if you mainly need settlement or dungeon maps, the same tool covers those scales as well.
