Put A Pin In It | Map Map - A Game About Maps (Cozy Exploration & Mapping Game - Demo)
Map Map - A Game About Maps is a wonderfully charming game about maps. Obviously. The clue is in the name!
But these aren't just any maps, because these maps are... TREASURE maps! We're going out in search of buried treasure! But first we need to find where it is on a series of gorgeous little islands.
However, when we arrive at each island, our map is pretty much blank. All we have is an outline of the island!
On each island we're given a task to find a particular thing. It could be to find a tree, a pile of rocks, a ruin, a statue, that kind of thing, and we then need to use our knowledge of maps and the island around us to work out where each thing is. We can count in steps, which helps us work out distances, and some islands have a little compass on them to help us work out which way is which!
With the help of our friends we explore the islands, hopping about, plotting locations on our map and trying to get as close as possible to the intended destination. When we make our guess, a gigantic red map pin drops out from the sky to let us know how well we did!
NOTE: This is the demo version of the game.

In this cozy single player game, you explore wondrous landscapes to find a legendary lost treasure. In your search for clues, you travel from island to island and set up camp with your crew of adventurers. They task you with finding different places in the surrounding landscape. Explore the island, find the locations you are looking for and pinpoint them on your map. Complete quests for your companions and follow the trace of the hidden treasure.
Your task as a cartographer is to explore each island and mark all the relevant locations on your map. You start with a simple map that only includes the coastline of the island. The challenge now is to fill this map with the landmarks, ruins and unique sites scattered across the land. To do so you have to rely on your sense of direction and truly get to know your surroundings like a real adventurer. Unlock tools to determine the precise location of these places and lead your crew to the hidden treasure.
Each island is handcrafted with great attention to detail. Discover ancient ruins, animals and secret places in the stunning scenery. Focus on exploring your surroundings without quest markers and other distractions. Learn about the origins of this whimsical world and explore each island until you know it like the back of your hand.
