How to Use the AI Map Generator

Step 1

Open and describe

No account needed. Open the map generator and describe your world, region type, geography, and preferred style in the prompt field.

Step 2

Choose a model and generate

Pick from Flux, GPT Image, Seedream, Nano Banana, or other models to match your aesthetic — parchment, illustrated, or isometric.

Step 3

Refine and share

Iterate on your prompt or swap models, then save your map or share it with the NightCafe creative community.

Show a top-down illustrated city map with cobblestone streets, a harbor district, a central market square, and small labeled landmarks, drawn in a warm editorial illustration style with soft ink lines and flat color fills.

Any style, any region

Create Illustrated Map Art with AI

Go beyond fantasy: generate illustrated city maps, isometric town plans, treasure maps, or stylized regional maps for books, games, and creative projects. Upload a rough sketch as a reference image and use image-to-image to keep your layout while the AI renders it in a polished illustrated style. Adjust style strength to stay true to your original composition.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about AI-generated maps on NightCafe

Is the AI map generator free to use?

Yes. NightCafe provides free daily credits so you can generate map art without entering a card. Paid plans offer more daily credits and premium features if your project needs more volume.

What kinds of maps can I generate?

You can create fantasy world maps, dungeon and adventure maps, illustrated city maps, treasure maps, regional maps, and stylized fictional geographies. Describe the terrain, style, and mood in your prompt and the AI handles the visual output. Switching models lets you shift between parchment-and-ink, watercolor, isometric, and other looks.

Can I use AI-generated maps commercially — for tabletop games or books?

Yes, including on the free plan. NightCafe assigns copyright of your generated maps to you, so you can use them in tabletop game products, published books, or other commercial projects. You should own or have permission to use any reference images you upload. AI copyright law is still evolving and varies by country, so checking local laws is advisable.

Can I upload a rough sketch and turn it into a finished map?

Yes. NightCafe supports image-to-image generation: upload a hand-drawn layout or rough sketch as a reference, then let the AI render it in your chosen style while preserving your original geography and composition. Adjust the influence strength to keep as much or as little of your original as you like.

How does NightCafe compare to other AI map tools?

Most dedicated map tools lock you into a single style or dataset. NightCafe gives you 30+ models including Flux, GPT Image, Seedream, and Nano Banana so you can match any cartographic style. You also get a creative community to share maps, gather feedback, and find inspiration — making it a full creative home base rather than a one-click utility.

Do I need design or cartography experience to make a good map?

No experience is required. Describe your world in plain language — terrain types, regions, overall mood, and art style — and the AI interprets it visually. You can refine results by tweaking your description or trying a different model until the map matches your vision.
