Resources to create your own One Page Dungeon!

Never created a one-page dungeon before? We’ve got you covered!

If you’ve not looked at our Rules page yet, this is a good time to go over it and look over the format of the competition and submission guidelines first.


Dungeon Bash’s inspirations

One Page Dungeon contest
The original One Page Dungeon (OPD) contest has been running since 2009 and has a multitude of past entries available for free as PDF downloads for your review and to inspire you!

The Dungeon Bash blog
In the lead up to Dungeon Bash 2018, the Curious Chimeras and the Dungeon Bash jury will be sharing some thoughts on OPDs, dungeon building and what we’re looking out for when we review your dungeons! Visit our blog to gain some inspiration!

Cartography and map-making

Dyson’s Docahedron
Dyson’s maps have a beautiful characteristic style, and he’s also created easy to understand tutorials to help you make your maps look almost as good as his! Visit his site to be inspired by his maps and story hooks!

Note: Although Dyson has released a series of maps free for anyone’s use, we ask that you kindly refrain from using his maps in the spirit of Dungeon Bash.
