When you want the map to feel raw and claustrophobic, dirt walls do the job fast. Use them to shape winding tunnels, cramped chambers, and unstable passages where any loud noise might bring the ceiling down.
Usage Tips
- Go organic: curve corridors and avoid perfect right angles for a natural dug-out look.
- Suggest collapse zones by fading sections or breaking the line where rubble would spill in.
- Add tools as storytelling props: a shovel or pickaxe marks an active dig site or a hurried escape route.
- Pair with grass floors for shallow burrows, or cracked/stone textures where earth meets old ruins.
Great for: mines, goblin warrens, giant insect nests, smugglers’ tunnels, and cave-adjacent ruins.
