Take a Trip Around Your World
Here, your fictional adventures are made to scale, and every chapter marks a coordinate in the odyssey of your story. Make your first two maps and five locations free.
Plot Adventures With Precision
Your character has to get to the Big Bad Place to Save The World, but exactly how far must they travel, and where will they stop along the way? Pinpoint every plot excursion with Campfire’s custom cartography tools and a digital notebook to keep everything connected.
Create Layered Landscapes
Elevate your world guide by nesting maps inside each other. Drill down from a world map to a continent to a country, town, and local tavern. Maps and Locations work together to help you create a living chronicle of your setting.
Expedition-Ready Features
Custom Pins
Create interactive map markers linking to any element—even other maps! We’ve got hundreds of icons ready for you to use as pins, or upload your own.
Zones & Layers
Zones work like pins, except they can cover much more area! Use zones to link elements to entire regions. Then, use Layers to see your maps from new perspectives.
Labels & Notes
Mark your map with labels for easily identifying sites of significance, and leave notes for wandering readers to discover as they make their way around the map.
Measuring Tools
Create scales using imperial, metric, or custom units, and follow character journeys and rumored myths across your setting to the precise distance with a handy ruler.
Decorations
Classify every type of pin with a bespoke map legend of your making, and never get lost with a compass rose to designate the cardinal directions.
Link to Inkarnate
Effortlessly link or upload maps straight from Inkarnate. Inkarnate Pro members enjoy the added benefit of live updates when maps are edited in Inkarnate.

What Our Community is Saying
Campfire has upped my writing game exponentially. The ability to have all my content (notes, maps, detailed character descriptions, etc) all within the one app makes it super easy for me to work on my stories anywhere and from any device.
Using Campfire to build characters, backstories, locations, items, and maps made everything easy to reference and organize. This made the writing process so much easier.
I love the interconnectivity of all [Campfire’s] features together: the custom calendars with the timelines, the maps with locations, etc.
