Category:2D cell-based maps

From ModdingWiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

This category lists map formats that are designed around a grid of fixed-size cells. They differ from 2D tile-based maps in that the cells are not necessarily related to how maps are constructed graphically, but rather to the logical separation of the map into a grid of distinct locations, with the locations of objects in the game specified as which cell (or cells) they occupy.

These maps are usually treated as variants of top-down views, and typically used in role playing and strategy games where the player must navigate their characters or armies around the map.
