My attempt to scan my childhood Zillion map turned out pretty bad—who could imagine an almost 40-year-old dot matrix printout wouldn't scan well—so I did the only logical thing I could do for something maybe two people total would want in the year 2025: I remade it from scratch! 😄 So here you go. - ThreadSky

I am one of those people! Just recently ran through the anime series and was gonna replay, map is MUCH appreciated.

It has been sized to be great for printing out, should you want to use it the proper way!

spydersvenom.bsky.social•11 days ago

And I shall, thank you again.

I'd wager that Parish would be pretty happy to get one of these. Also, be extremely grateful you don't have to map out Section Z for the NES, because holy hell that game was a knotted mess. Observe!

Flashing back to the time in college a friend printed the base map on a massive plotter printer and taped it to the wall so that we could reference it while playing the game

I would've settled for a save feature back in the day. Even just a password save. We too had to create our own map.haha

Brings back fond memories. When all I needed to be content was an imaginative game like Zillion or Phantasy Star to explore on a rainy day. Sega needs to do a Master System mini.

@jeffgerstmann.com I think you would dig this.

I was just super impressed that kid-mollie did the map on a computer. All mine were notebooks or if I was really lucky I could get some graph paper

I will now play Zillion and watch the anime!

Looks good! Might have to use it for my next playthrough.

I know this won't happen, but it would be cool to see a remake of this game with a rogue like map layout each game.

Please be aware: I have the music in my head now.
