The Lonesome Cartographer
This text describes how to play Looney Tunes Cartographer (LTC), which involves creating maps, researching landmarks in your area of interest or community location with Tarot cards and dice rolls from the deck, using a map grid system starting at 1-5 stars. The game is inspired by Alone on a Map but has its own unique twists like "carto" references to be understood within LTC context before playing it without understanding what exactly they mean in that specific format of mapping or card making process for those unfamiliar with cartography and Tarot cards as used here inside the rule set. 3 / 4
