Quest for El Dorado setup guide

Build a fresh Quest for El Dorado race course every game: random hex tiles, balanced routes and a fair start for 2 to 4 explorers.

How to use the Quest for El Dorado tool

1. Choose the course options that suit your table and explorers.
2. Generate a course and lay out its terrain sections in the displayed order and orientation.
3. Review the course before racing; copy its share code to preserve the exact layout.

A seed depends on the selected options. Use a course code when you need to reproduce the exact course.

What this setup tool prepares

A Quest for El Dorado course needs to fit both the race you want and the table you have. Course length, difficulty, terrain sections, and forks can change how a route feels before anyone draws a hand. The course generator turns those setup choices into an arrangement you can inspect as a whole instead of assembling sections one at a time without seeing the finished route.

Before you start playing

Check the selected editions against the terrain you own and choose a table size that leaves room for the course. Match every section’s rotation as well as its position. Preserve the course code if you want to return to the exact arrangement; reusing a seed with different options can produce a different course.
