GridMaps Random Map Generator

About this app

GridMaps is a simple, ad free app that can create dynamicly generated random maps made up of biome tiles. It also allows you to edit any map after it's been generated by the app.

These maps are useful for Dungeon Masters running campaigns, as they allow you to easily keep track of where the party is on the world map.

Because you can export your maps as images, you can then send them to players or print them out at-will.

Can be used to create a map for your fictional world building, eg. Books, D&D or other role-playing games.

Ratings and reviews

This app is the best of it's kind. However, your options are limited in terms of tile type. Unless I missed the UI, I think that there should be an option to create custom Tiles to add a more a variety. That way, you can personalize your fantasy world even further. Given a few changes, this app has the opportunity to be five stars.

This app is well worth its cost and does exactly what it says on the tin plus a little more. It randomly generates an initial hex map made-up of 12 different types of tiles based on certain criteria you select. After the map is made you can then edit it to your heart's content, save it, generate a new map, or export your map. The only downside of this app that I have found is that the interface is cut-off a bit on my 5 inch display. Overall I highly recommend this app.

Love it. Best map editor I've found. When you touch the screen it is a bit off. But I can get around it. I do have suggestions that I feel would improve this app greatly, and if the creators want to get in touch I'd gladly offer any ideas. New tiles and possibility of a simplified tile editor. Also please fix how the app responds with the touch screen, it is possible to work around but it is annoying. I'd definitely bump my review to 5 stars if the glitches were fixed.
