town map

Settlement street guide

A town map is a map showing the layout of a town—its streets, landmarks, and points of interest.

The term appears most often in video games, where the town map helps players navigate settlements and locate shops, quest givers, or exits: Open the town map to find the blacksmith.

Outside gaming, city map is more common.
