    So the other day I stumbled across a map of Wizardry 7 that really blew me away.

    [IMG]

    Someone stitched together all the different parts of the mini-map into one giant map. I'd seen all the maps before on their own, but never all together and in the context of the entire game world. What's remarkable to me is how small and simple each of the individual areas are, but how massive it is when it's all put together. It shows that it's not so much the complexity of the layouts that's important, but the way each piece of the map relates to the others and the scripted events in each area.

    Anyway, I thought this was pretty cool and was wondering if anyone had any more maps of game worlds. I'd be especially interested in maps of the Ultima games if anyone has them.
    The man who wasn't there, CappenVarra, moraes and 2 others Brofist this.

    AAAAAAAA this is awesome. I was just about to post a bunch of Ultima 7 maps I found but this is like the holy grail of game maps. Great find.

    That is really fucking cool cboyardee. It is very interesting to see the whole world as a map like that.
